Reducing Crime by up to
0%
For most businesses, leaving millions of dollars of company assets sitting in the parking lot would be unthinkable, but for service and repair shops, that's just the nature of the business. Service and repair shops handle vehicles that are often left overnight or for extended periods, making them a desirable target for thieves. Additionally, valuable tools and equipment are at risk, as resale markets make it easy to illegally trade stolen items.
Protecting your inventory is critical. Nearly 700,000 vehicles are stolen annually in the US, with 4 out of 10 car thefts occurring at auto lots.
LotGuard provides a complete surveillance and security solution specifically designed to put a stop to auto lot crime.

Mobile Video Surveillance
As an owner or manager of an automotive service or repair shop, one of your top priorities is protecting your facility, tools, and customer vehicles from theft, vandalism, and other criminal activity.

LotGuard’s surveillance units are specifically designed to reduce auto-related crimes and provide reliable, visible protection for your shop, service bays, and parking areas. These mobile units can be deployed in minutes and deliver instant coverage, even in areas without power or internet connectivity.
