Boosting security at any business is of vital importance. However, gas stations have the unique risk of being part indoors and part outdoors, along with staying open 24/7. This can make them an easy target for petty theft, affecting both your business and your customers. 
It makes sense to hang security cameras indoors. This helps employees keep an eye on people that come in and out. With the aid of cameras, you may be able to catch thieves in the act and stop the crime before it’s complete. And if someone does get away with a theft, camera footage may help the police catch the suspect.
In addition to hanging cameras indoors, your gas station should also have cameras positioned at the pumps outside. A large chunk of business takes place at the pumps, making it an important area to monitor. But outdoor cameras also protect the safety of your customers. If someone were to threaten a customer pumping gas, the camera footage can help resolve the incident.
Apart from helping to identify the suspect, camera footage can also reveal what was stolen. Knowing exactly what went missing can help in determining the value of the loss, which aids in filing a claim on your gas station insurance policy.
Deadbolt locks and ample lighting are crucial security measures. But don’t overlook the importance of security cameras as well.
