Vehicle inventory sitting on open lots after hours is one of the most vulnerable assets a dealership holds. Hawk provides 24/7 live monitoring and full lot PTZ coverage to protect what matters most.
A dealership lot is an open-air display of high-value inventory with no physical barriers, no overnight staff and limited passive lighting. That combination creates specific vulnerabilities that a standard alarm system does not address.
Vehicles that are accessible from the street are at risk after hours. Without live monitoring and audio deterrence, a theft can progress without any intervention.
Broken windows, catalytic converter theft and interior damage are common at unmonitored lots. A single incident can write off profit on multiple vehicles.
Licence plate theft from dealership lots is an ongoing issue in Metro Vancouver and across BC. Camera coverage and timestamped footage provide a verifiable record.
Service entrances, key storage areas and showroom doors are high-value targets. Monitoring these access points provides a deterrent and a record of any attempt.
Fraudulent test drive arrangements and staged incidents targeting dealership vehicles benefit from camera coverage at entrance and exit points.
Without clear video evidence, an insurance claim for a vehicle damaged or stolen overnight can be contested. Live monitored systems produce timestamped records.
Live monitoring gives operators visibility across vehicle inventory and lot access points.
ASSESS MY DEALERSHIP
Hawk designs camera systems around the specific layout of a dealership: the lot perimeter, showroom access, service entry, key storage and indoor areas. Every camera connects to 24/7 live monitoring.
When an operator sees suspicious activity on your lot, they can issue a live verbal warning through on-site speakers, alert your management team, or help coordinate a response before a vehicle is removed from the property.
Tell us about your dealership and we will design a camera layout and monitoring solution matched to your lot, your access points and your specific concerns.
