Below are some of the options that Eversafe has available for you to further improve the security of your business.
CCTV – Security Cameras Surveillance Systems
CCTV is all about evidence. At Eversafe we hear it all too often from customers trying to save money, that “we only need this level of resolution”. Remember the better... the resolution the better the evidence. If you skimp on resolution it could cost you in the long run, especially if you can’t ID someone or something.
Most businesses in the automotive industry like car yards and mechanics’ workshops have had problems with theft of cars by offenders pretending to be customers that want to test drive a vehicle. Other problems are disgruntled customers, OH&S management, property damage and burglaries.
By installing security cameras, they will not only help prevent all these from happening, but you will also have better control of your business through being able to manage your staff whether it be onsite or remotely. Surveillance camera systems will help you protect your business and improve your company’s overall exposure to risk. If anything does happen, recorded video footage can be used as evidence.

If you are considering CCTV for your business call Eversafe today on 03 900 10 900 (option2) or email us at info@eversafe.com.au.
Access Control
Many businesses have a need to monitor personnel access. Businesses that operate in the Healthcare industry like hospitals, aged care facilities, medical and dental clinics are common users of access... control systems.
The actual set-up of the system will depend on the needs of the business, but there are some standard requirements. One common features of a typical access control system is the generation of user activity reports.
For some practical issues when considering access control for a business in the Healthcare industry, see Access Control Systems for Business
If you are considering an Access Control System for a business in the Healthcare industry like a hospital, an aged care facility or a medical/dental clinic, call Eversafe today on 03 900 10 900 and let one of our security specialists point you in the right direction.
Alarm Systems
A commercial grade intrusion detection system will help protect your assets and your property. Security alarm devices are standard for many businesses. If your budget is tight, at Eversafe we... recommend you have an alarm system as a minimum requirement for your business. Think of it this way, an alarm system tells an intruder to get out and CCTV captures the evidence. If you have CCTV on its own, then the intruder can stay inside for as long as they like, until they find your recording device and steal it. There goes your evidence! Be proactive not reactive. Too many people install alarm systems after the fact, when it’s too late. Don’t become another statistic call, install an alarm system.

Alarm Monitoring
How often have you heard, and then ignored, an alarm siren coming from a building or a vehicle?
In today’s fast paced society, we have become desensitized to these sounds... and may also not want to get involved as it may put us at risk as well.
Hence the need for a 24hr security monitoring and patrol service.
When your alarm notifies our Melbourne security monitoring centre of an emergency or disturbance, our control room operators will:
- first call your premises to validate whether a false alarm has occurred
- notify you via your contact response list
- once we have made contact with you, you have the option to instruct us to send out a patrol car to attend your premises
CCTV may record problem activity, but alarm monitoring gives you a definitive timeline of the intrusion making it easier to locate the correct footage via your CCTV Surveillance system. You may also need to consider Security Monitoring for Insurance purposes. High Risk businesses such as Jewellery Stores, Pharmacies, Pubs and Gaming venues must have Security Monitoring either by Law or to satisfy Insurance requirements.
Communication Types: These days there are many ways an alarm system can communicate alarm events to a control room. Traditionally alarm systems have used Dialler Monitoring over PSTN (Landlines) to communicate to a security control room. This is slowly being phased out as NBN (National Broadband Network) is being rolled out around Australia.
- In most cases at Eversafe we are future proofing our customers by switching them over to GPRS (General Packet Radio Service). GPRS is a packet oriented mobile data service which uses the 3 or 4G mobile network. This is the highest level of security communication that we have due to the fact that the GPRS units are dual sim ie. If the Telstra network fails it will automatically use the Optus network. The GPRS unit also sends a polling signal to the control room (like a heartbeat) at predetermined intervals. If the control room fails to receive the polling signal, then the control room will contact you to alert you to the poll failure. Because the GPRS unit uses the Mobile network there is no phone cable to tamper with making your system even more secure.
- IP Monitoring: IP Monitoring is similar to GPRS except that it uses the internet to send signals to the control room. It is not as secure for the following reasons,
- Must ensure you have your modem connected to a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply like a backup battery) this is to prevent communication failure in the event of a power failure.
- Also an intruder can cut the cable to your internet causing a comms failure. With both GPRS & IP Monitoring you won’t have the call costs associated with Dialler Monitoring which helps offset the extra cost of GPRS or IP Monitoring.
If you are considering security monitoring for your business call Eversafe today on 03 900 10 900 and let one of our security specialists point you in the right direction.
CCTV Video Monitoring
Another form of monitoring is CCTV video monitoring. Video monitoring is for those customers that need that next level of service and security. Video monitoring takes you out of harm’s... way.
In the event that your alarm system reports of a burglary to the control room, the control room operator will log on to your CCTV system and will only contact you if they have visual verification of an intruder onsite. This stops you or your staff from being woken up at 3am in the morning and also minimises the need for unnecessary Patrol callouts saving you time and money.
Video monitoring is a cost effective solution which reduces the exposure to risk for all stakeholders and maximises security with a quicker response time.

Hotel Security Systems – FAQs
Why is security important for hotels?
Hotels manage high volumes of guests, staff, cash transactions, and valuable assets daily. Without proper security, they are exposed to risks like theft, property damage, and safety incidents. A well-designed system helps protect guests, staff, and business operations while reducing financial losses.
What are the most common security risks in hotels?
Hotels commonly face:
- Theft (including internal theft)
- Cash handling discrepancies
- Property damage
- Workplace health and safety (OH&S) issues
- Hold-ups or security incidents
A comprehensive security system is designed to minimise these risks.
What types of security systems are recommended for hotels?
A complete hotel security solution typically includes:
- CCTV surveillance systems
- Access control systems
- Intrusion alarm systems
- 24/7 alarm monitoring
- Video monitoring services
These systems work together to provide prevention, detection, and response.
How does CCTV improve hotel security?
CCTV cameras:
- Deter criminal activity
- Provide recorded evidence of incidents
- Help monitor guests, staff, and operations
- Allow remote oversight of the property
Higher-resolution cameras are recommended for clear identification and better evidence.
What is access control and how is it used in hotels?
Access control systems regulate who can enter specific areas, such as:
- Guest rooms
- Staff-only zones
- Back-of-house areas
They can also generate activity reports, helping hotel management monitor movement and improve accountability.
Why are alarm systems essential for hotels?
Alarm systems actively deter intruders and alert you immediately to security breaches. While CCTV records events, alarms help prevent incidents in real time—making both systems essential for full protection.
What is alarm monitoring and why is it important?
Alarm monitoring provides 24/7 protection. When an alarm is triggered:
- A monitoring centre is alerted
- They verify the incident
- You are notified
- A patrol or response can be dispatched if required
This ensures quick action, even when staff are not on-site.
What communication options are available for alarm systems?
Modern alarm systems typically use:
- GPRS (mobile network) – highly secure with dual SIM backup
- IP monitoring – uses internet but can be vulnerable if connectivity fails
- Dialler (landline) – older technology being phased out
GPRS is often preferred for reliability and tamper resistance.
What is CCTV video monitoring?
Video monitoring is an advanced service where trained operators:
- Access live CCTV footage during an alarm event
- Verify whether a real threat exists
- Reduce false alarms and unnecessary callouts
This improves response times and overall security effectiveness.
What is the minimum security setup for a hotel?
At minimum, a commercial-grade alarm system is recommended. However, combining alarms with CCTV, access control, and monitoring provides significantly stronger protection.
Can hotel owners monitor their property remotely?
Yes. Modern security systems allow remote access, enabling owners and managers to monitor activity, review footage, and manage operations from anywhere.
Can security systems help hotels save money?
Yes. By preventing theft, reducing damage, and improving operational control, security systems help minimise losses and improve long-term profitability.
