Warehousing & logistics

Loading docks, yard lots, fence lines, and gate access — point-to-point into the far corner, cameras where inventory moves, and UniFi access at the gate.

Warehouse building surrounded by parking lots and perimeter roads

Representative yard — PtP into the far lot, cameras on approaches, and gate access where cable never went.

The warehouse is not one rectangle. Coverage has to follow the dock, the yard, the fence, and the gate.

A single NVR in the office does not see the rear loading lane, the trailer staging lot, or the employee parking behind the building. Those shots usually need an honest path — cable where it is cheap, Cambium point-to-point where it is not.

We design for how the site runs: shift change, inbound and outbound, where forklifts actually travel, which doors stay open, and which gate needs a call box or reader. Not a camera on every corner — coverage and access that match the operation.

Representative stills — not client photos. Coverage that matters often sits on the fence line, the gate, or the far lot — not only inside the building.

Docks & lanes

Product lines we spec on these sites.

Design for how the site is used day to day.

  1. 01

    Dock and yard coverage

    Cameras on approaches, dock doors, fence segments, and lot lanes — with storage and retention someone on site can actually use.

  2. 02

    Point-to-point into the lot

    Cambium cnWave or ePMP when fiber is not going to the far gate, the secondary dock, or a pole camera out on the staging lot.

  3. 03

    Gate and door access

    G3 Intercom or reader at the gate and key openings — hub, lock interface, and network over the same PtP path when the fence is far from the building.

Related consulting: door access & intercom, networking & site links, camera systems, sensors & alarms.

Warehousing and logistics ROI

Dock lanes, yards, and gates are where inventory actually moves — and where one prevented incident can cover the entire system.

  1. 01

    Cargo and inventory theft

    Facilities lose tens to hundreds of thousands per year to theft. AI-equipped coverage commonly reduces incidents 30% or more — and a single major cargo claim (often $200k+) can exceed the project cost.

  2. 02

    Loading dock chain of custody

    Cameras and LPR at gates and docks create records that stop false missing-shipment claims — inbound and outbound.

  3. 03

    Process errors

    Footage catches wrong picks and improper handling that cost more than external theft on many floors.

  4. 04

    Safety and compliance

    PPE zones and forklift paths on camera reduce OSHA investigation time and support safety programs without a separate analytics vendor.

  5. 05

    Staff efficiency

    Smart alerts replace constant human monitoring. Cutting false alarms alone frees meaningful staff time on large yards.
