The Importance of CCTV in Modern Warehouses

Warehouses today face a mix of security, safety, and efficiency challenges:

Theft from external intruders or internal staff
Workplace accidents due to poor visibility or unsafe handling
Inventory damage or loss from mishandling
Blind spots created by tall racking systems and complex layouts
Limited insight into staff movement and operational bottlenecks

CCTV Tradie’s advanced security camera systems help you tackle these issues head-on. With high-resolution video, AI-driven alerts, and smart analytics, you can keep your site secure while gaining valuable operational data.

Smart Camera Placement – Tailored for Warehouse Scenarios

No two warehouses are exactly the same. Layouts vary in size, height, racking arrangement, lighting conditions, and operational flow — which means a one-size-fits-all CCTV plan simply won’t work. At CCTV Tradie, we create customised surveillance layouts based on a thorough on-site assessment to address your specific security vulnerabilities and operational needs.

Strategic camera placement is critical. Poor positioning can leave dangerous blind spots where incidents occur unseen, while intelligent placement ensures complete coverage, accurate monitoring, and quick incident response.

Below are key warehouse CCTV locations and scenarios, along with the recommended camera types and technologies for each area:

1. Entry & Exit Points

Purpose: Control access, verify identities, and maintain a complete record of everyone entering or leaving the facility.

Install high-resolution cameras at all pedestrian and vehicle access points, including staff entrances, visitor gates, and roller doors.
Use facial recognition cameras for staff authentication and access control integration to restrict entry to authorised personnel only.
Licence Plate Recognition (LPR) cameras automatically log delivery trucks, couriers, and visitor vehicles, useful for investigations and tracking delivery schedules.
AI motion detection can trigger alerts when movement occurs outside scheduled hours.

Example: In a large distribution hub, an AI LPR system flagged a vehicle entering after-hours without authorisation, allowing security to respond before any theft occurred.

2. Loading Docks & Dispatch Areas

Purpose: Oversee the movement of goods in and out of the warehouse to prevent loss, damage, and operational disputes.

Wide-angle cameras provide full coverage of dock bays, ensuring all loading/unloading activities are recorded.
AI vehicle detection logs arrival and departure times automatically, helping improve delivery scheduling.
PTZ cameras allow supervisors to zoom in on pallet labels or container seals during disputes over damaged or missing items.
Integration with warehouse management systems (WMS) can link recorded video directly to specific shipment IDs for faster investigations.

Example: A Melbourne-based client resolved a $20,000 damaged goods claim by using recorded footage to prove items were intact before dispatch.

3. High-Value Storage Areas

Purpose: Protect premium or sensitive stock from theft and unauthorised handling.

Active deterrence cameras use flashing lights, sirens, and voice warnings to scare off intruders before a theft occurs.
Zone-based AI detection instantly alerts security if someone enters a high-value area outside approved hours.
Thermal imaging cameras detect movement even in low or no light, ensuring after-hours visibility.

Example: In a parts warehouse, AI alerts detected unusual after-hours activity near a locked high-value cage, leading to the arrest of an intruder before stock could be stolen.

4. Warehouse Aisles & Racking Systems

Purpose: Monitor handling practices, prevent accidents, and ensure operational compliance.

Install overhead cameras along aisles to oversee forklift movements and pallet stacking.
AI object tracking detects unauthorised individuals entering operational zones.
Collision detection analytics can trigger alerts if forklifts or machinery come dangerously close to staff.
High dynamic range (HDR) cameras counter challenging lighting caused by skylights or open roller doors.

Example: A Sydney warehouse reduced forklift accidents by 35% after introducing AI collision detection alerts linked to overhead cameras.

5. Perimeter & External Fences

Purpose: Detect and deter intruders before they reach the building.

Thermal imaging cameras pick up heat signatures in complete darkness or through light fog and rain.
Virtual tripwire analytics create invisible boundaries that trigger alarms when crossed.
Dual-lens AI cameras distinguish between humans, animals, and vehicles, reducing false alarms from wildlife.
Active deterrence units with strobe lights and pre-recorded warnings add an extra security layer.

Example: At a regional storage yard, virtual tripwire alerts allowed security to intercept trespassers before they could damage perimeter fencing.

6. Office, Break & Staff Areas

Purpose: Protect administrative assets, maintain staff safety, and manage restricted zones.

Discreet dome cameras for reception areas to monitor visitor interactions.
Access-controlled video verification to secure HR rooms, IT server rooms, and payroll storage.
AI behaviour analysis can identify unusual activity patterns (e.g., repeated entry attempts into restricted areas).

Example: In one logistics office, AI monitoring flagged repeated failed entry attempts into an accounting office, preventing a potential internal security breach.

Advanced Camera Technologies for Warehouses

Modern warehouse surveillance isn’t just about recording — it’s about intelligent, automated monitoring.
