MARTENSVILLE CANADIAN TIRE GETS PROTECTED BY REED SECURITY


Congratulations!

Congratulations to Lindsay Ullathorne and team on the grand re-opening of Canadian Tire 912 in Martensville, SK! 

With 50,000 square feet of retail space and over 50,000 products, Canadian Tire is your home for all the everyday things that help you work, play and live better.  


Project goals and requirements

For a retail location like Canadian Tire, security isn’t just about protecting assets; it’s about peace of mind and maintaining a safe, welcoming environment. Lindsay Ullathorne, the owner, had two primary objectives in mind:


1. Increase Deterrence: Visible security measures act as a powerful deterrent, discouraging potential thieves from attempting any unauthorized activity.

2. Reduce Losses Due to Theft: Effective video surveillance allows for immediate investigation and response to any suspicious activities, ultimately reducing the financial impact of losses.

™ video surveillance

To meet Canadian Tire's needs, we installed a comprehensive video surveillance system designed for both wide coverage and detailed monitoring. Here’s an overview of the equipment and technology we implemented:


90+ High-Definition Security Cameras: Strategically positioned both indoors and outdoors, these high-definition cameras provide crystal-clear imaging day and night. Whether monitoring the aisles, entrances, or parking lot, these cameras offer complete visibility, leaving no blind spots.

Network Video Recorder (NVR) with 30-60 Days of Storage: This powerful NVR offers extended video retention, ensuring footage is available for review weeks after an incident. From theft prevention to employee safety, this extended storage feature is invaluable for ongoing security.

Desktop and Smartphone Apps: Both desktop and smartphone apps allow Lindsay and her team to monitor live feeds and playback past footage. This mobile functionality ensures they can keep an eye on the store anytime, anywhere, reinforcing security even when they’re off-site.

BEGINNER GUIDE TO HD SECURITY CAMERA SYSTEMS: OVERVIEW


What is a HD Security Camera System?

We all watch TV - think of the difference in quality between regular channels and high definition channels. ReedHD™ security cameras can help solve more crimes using less cameras due to increased image quality. A standard video surveillance camera records in 0.3 megapixel (VGA 640x480 pixels). ReedHD™ security cameras record in resolutions up to 4K (3840x2160 pixels) and gives you a better opportunity to record and recognize Faces, License Plates and Objects. A ReedHD™ 4K security camera gives you the same resolution as over 26 standard definition security cameras.

HD Security Camera systems consist of:

  1. Cameras and Lenses
  2. Power
  3. Cable and Conduit
  4. Router/Modem and Internet
  5. LAN and Switches
  6. Storage
  7. Display Monitor
  8. Apps for connecting remotely
  9. Warning Signage
  10. Professional Installation



OVERVIEW:

I.P. cameras capture images and convert them to digital video streams. The digital video streams are broadcast over a local area network (LAN) using Ethernet (CAT5e or CAT6) cable. Power is supplied to I.P. security cameras through the ethernet cable via Power-Over-Ethernet (POE) adapters built into the security cameras and at a POE enabled switch. The ethernet cable for each security camera is plugged into the switch which feeds into the network router/hub. 

A Network Video Recorder (NVR) captures each security camera's signal, compresses, and records it. Software built into the NVR provides features such as motion recording, intelligent search, zoom and video analytics (People Detection, Cross Line Detection, Object Removed). The NVR combines the video streams from the security cameras and handles the broadcast over the LAN and internet for local and remote viewing via apps for PC, MAC, tablets and smartphones.

Note: The maximum distance between network devices is 330 feet.
