Western New York, particularly around Buffalo and Rochester, is home to a thriving manufacturing industry. From precision machining and advanced manufacturing to food production and automotive parts, the region is filled with facilities that operate around the clock, rely on specialized equipment, and store valuable inventory. With high-value assets and complex operational needs, security is a top priority. That’s where the Sonitrol CORE platform, delivered by Sonitrol WNY, comes in.
Understanding the Security Challenges in Manufacturing
Manufacturing businesses face unique security concerns. These include:
Protection of expensive machinery and raw materials
Controlling access to sensitive or hazardous areas
Monitoring employee and contractor activity
Preventing theft, vandalism, and unauthorized entry after hours
Ensuring compliance with safety and regulatory requirements
Traditional alarm systems often fall short in these environments. Manufacturers need a solution that is proactive, adaptable, and capable of handling large, multi-zone facilities. Sonitrol CORE was designed with these demands in mind.
Verified Intrusion Detection for Greater Accuracy
One of the key features of the Sonitrol CORE platform is verified audio intrusion detection. Instead of relying solely on motion detectors, CORE uses sensitive audio sensors placed strategically around the facility. When triggered, the system allows trained Sonitrol WNY monitoring professionals to listen in and verify whether a legitimate intrusion is taking place.
This verification leads to faster response times from law enforcement and greatly reduces the number of false alarms—critical for facilities that operate during off-hours or on rotating shifts.
Integrated Video Surveillance with 24/7 Visibility
Manufacturers often have large facilities with multiple entry points and extensive production areas. CORE’s integrated video surveillance provides high-definition, real-time monitoring of key zones—both inside and outside the building. Video footage can be accessed remotely via the cloud, allowing management to review incidents, monitor workflows, or check in after hours.
Sonitrol WNY can customize camera placements based on your specific layout, ensuring maximum coverage and minimal blind spots.
Scalable Access Control for Multi-Shift Operations
With multiple employees working different shifts, access control is essential in any manufacturing environment. Sonitrol CORE includes scalable access control features that allow managers to control who enters each area of the facility—and when. Entry can be granted or restricted based on employee role, shift, or specific zones, improving both security and accountability.
Access logs provide valuable insight for HR, compliance audits, or incident investigations, and all data is centralized for easy reporting.
Fire and Environmental Monitoring for Added Protection
Many manufacturers also face risks related to fire, temperature changes, or water leaks. Sonitrol CORE integrates fire and environmental monitoring into the same platform, providing early detection and rapid alerts that help prevent costly damage or downtime. Combined with Sonitrol WNY’s 24/7 monitoring, you get a complete solution for both security and safety.
