You've worked way too hard to risk an intruder breaking into your business and making off with what you've striven to attain. Your business is your livelihood and a theft isn't just an intrusion on your property, but on your way of life. When it comes to something like this, it's more than business; it's personal. Fortunately, there are precautions you can take to significantly reduce the risk that one day you're going to walk into work and be struck with a sinking feeling, seeing that your valuables are gone.

By taking some of these basic security measures, you'll be able to leave work feeling at ease, while also having remote access to your business' security system should there be a concern. You don't want to be a shop-owner who waited until after a crime took place to take these precautions. Instead, you're best off with being proactive and preventing a problem before it ever arises in the first place. There are a number of security measures you can take to help protect your business or commercial property. Here are four of those measures that will help protect your livelihood.

Access Control System

An access control system is basically the big motherboard of your business' security. You can decide for yourself which components of a control system will work for you. The most important thing about these systems is that they give you control over who is going into your building. You have the option to choose between keypad systems, employee badge systems, keycard access, or some combination of all of the above. And if you have a system already in place, but aren't entirely comfortable with it, a reputable locksmith will be able to essentially retrofit the system to your liking.

Security Cameras

Security cameras will not only help to prevent intruders from breaking in, but the cameras will also help you keep an eye on day-to-day operations in your workplace. And if you have a retail business that is open to the public, security cameras are an essential component of preventing, and prosecuting, shoplifting. And with modern high-tech systems, you'll be able to keep an eye on your business from anywhere that has an internet connection. In today's world, this one has become a no-brainer to most business owners. Even while you're sitting poolside during your Hawaiian vacation, you'll be able to check in.

Commercial Door Replacement

By going with a commercial door, you'll help to prevent intruder access. From pivot doors to hollow doors, this is one more measure you can take to help keep your building secure and your mind at ease.
