Your Monthly Dispatch Video: Repeat Construction Site Burglar Arrested
In our featured video, a construction site burglar learns that it doesn’t pay to return to the scene of a crime. UCIT live video monitoring is watching. A professionally-trained monitoring operator calls the Seattle Police who take him into custody.
Highly trained security guards can be a business asset. The best guards are trained and able to handle emergency situations, live foot patrolling, confrontations, testifying in court, CPR, and first aid. However, guards can also have significant disadvantages. Security guard services are typically very expensive. A security guard cannot be at multiple places at once. Many security guards are not adequately trained. Guards that intercept trespassers can pose a significant liability risk for businesses. Areas such as alleyways and rooftops may be off access to security guards. Intruders may cause injuries or even kill the best security guards.
For some companies the best solution combines on-site guards with live video monitoring, which can complement and fill in their weaknesses. Live video monitoring can help combat the disadvantages of even the best security guards. Remote video monitoring costs a fraction of physical security guards, allowing business owners to save money and commercial property owners to increase Net Operating Income (NOI) while helping decrease risk and liability. >> Read more
“We’ve got a six-story building we just bought and are renovating. The building has a number of nearby homeless shelters and many times people will break in during the night and sleep inside, usually leaving trash and broken windows.”

What Clients Say
“We have been with UCIT for a few years at our British Columbia plant, and have just installed another system here at our main plant in Ontario. The monitored camera system has resulted in quick response by Police and has been instrumental in the detection, apprehension, arrest, and I assume in the conviction of said criminals.”
– Toronto IT Manager
