Stop theft sooner, support your team, and keep stores running smoothly

Shrink hurts margins and staff confidence. Shoplifting, refund fraud and after-hours break-ins can turn busy shifts into stressful ones. Many stores also juggle ageing cameras, mixed hardware and limited remote access, making it hard to see what's happening across sites in real time.

Our approach is simple: design the right mix of CCTV, alarms, access control and monitoring for your store, then tie it together with clear escalation steps. You get live visibility, better evidence, and faster responses, without drowning your team in alerts. We support single stores and multi-site retailers across Sydney, Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
