Beyond the fence: why smart internal security is transforming warehouses
Anchor Sound & Security is calling on warehouse operators to look beyond traditional perimeter measures and recognise the growing importance of smart internal security systems.

WHILE FENCES, gates, and external CCTV remain vital, the real risks inside a warehouse often go unseen — from safety compliance issues and avoidable accidents to costly claims and internal theft that impacts productivity. These risks increase dramatically during peak seasons, when temporary staff join under tight deadlines and heightened pressure.
“Smart internal security is not just about protecting stock,” says Chris Morren, Business Development at Anchor Sound & Security. “It’s about protecting people, reducing downtime, ensuring health and safety compliance, and ultimately strengthening a company’s bottom line. Investing inside the warehouse pays dividends in resilience, efficiency, and peace of mind.”
Anchor’s smart warehouse solutions combine monitoring, analytics, and safety-driven design to:
- Improve productivity by reducing disruption
- Boost compliance with health & safety requirements
- Lower costly claims from workplace accidents
- Provide managers with real-time visibility and control
As the cost-of-living crisis places added pressure on seasonal staffing, creating a safe, compliant, and secure workplace has never been more essential.
To explore how smart security is transforming warehouse productivity, Anchor Sound & Security has released a dedicated podcast episode with @SPARK-SCM Supply Chains Technology & Advisory’s Alistair Yates & Ruth Waring (Transport & Compliance Consultant, Women in Logistics UK , & UKWA).
