Hear From LVT’s Retail Clients
Adding the LVT Units was the layer we needed to completely eliminate break-ins.
The first thing we've noticed was the clarity of what we were looking at in the LVT Unit cameras. It's about three times the range of what we have with our building cameras, which is excellent. I mean, we're deploying fewer cameras for more coverage.
The reason we chose the LVT system is the mobility. If somebody repeatedly scopes [our property], they can see that we're actively moving the [LVT] Unit with the fleet. It's an indication that this property is risky, and they should look elsewhere.
People are no longer loitering at night or early morning which is a big improvement.
We used to have some loitering and some homeless—they all left when your unit was installed. We don't have any problems now.

The Cost of Car Lot Crimes

More than just being a headache for owners of car dealerships, the cost of theft and vandalism at car dealerships is exponential. When car dealers lose sales revenue and acquire repair expenses because of theft and vandalism, they experience an escalating financial burden, lose commissions on sales, and face additional challenges, all making it harder to do their job and make a profit. Catalytic converter theft is an issue many dealerships face. LVT prevents catalytic converter theft through:

  • Active deterrence
  • Rapid deployment and mobility
  • Live surveillance
  • Evidence collection

Invest in proactive monitoring with LVT's remote video monitoring service and access live feeds across your dealerships 24/7.
