Watched from the last lock-up to the first key.
Most losses happen in the window nobody is on site. After-hours monitoring arms your cameras on the schedule you set — nights, weekends, holidays, early closures — and puts an operator on every real event until the business opens again.
Arming that follows your calendar, not ours.
You give us your opening hours, holiday closures and any recurring late nights. Zones arm and disarm on that calendar automatically. A text to the monitoring center suspends coverage for a late inventory count or a contractor visit — and we log who asked.
- Per-site, per-day arming schedule with holiday calendar
- Early-close and late-open changes by text or email
- Priority zones checked on a virtual patrol every 30–60 minutes
- Morning summary before the first employee arrives
- Seamless hand-off to 24/7 coverage for sites that need it

What after-hours coverage includes
Scheduled virtual patrols
Every camera checked on a cadence, with exceptions logged — a lit office that should be dark, a door left propped.
Live intervention
People on the lot or at the doors get a live audio warning before anything is damaged.
Morning summary
One email before opening: what happened, what we did, what you should check.
Set up in a day on existing cameras.
After-hours coverage is the fastest program to start: we connect to your recorder, draw the zones, load your calendar and run one shadow night. Most sites are live within 48 hours of signed agreement.
About after-hours monitoring
Your manager texts the monitoring center a name and an expected departure time; we watch that person leave safely and arm afterwards.
Yes — the schedule is per day and per site, and can be changed in writing at any time.
For public-facing sites with daytime risk, yes. For most offices, warehouses and retail, after-hours coverage is where the value is.
