Warehouse & Logistics Centre Security
Gatehouse, dock and yard control for facilities where the loss walks out on a trailer.
Overview
What this covers
In distribution, the significant losses do not go out in a pocket. They go out on a truck, with paperwork, through a gate — which is why the gatehouse and the dock are where a logistics security programme either works or does not.
Praxon staffs gatehouses and docks with officers trained on seal verification, bill of lading checks, trailer inspection and yard discipline. Ontario's cargo theft problem is organised and patient, and the countermeasure is boring consistency: every driver checked, every seal recorded, every trailer accounted for on every yard round.
