Warehouse Perimeter Security: An AI Video Playbook for Logistics Yards

Yards are motion-heavy; risk is uneven

Trucks, forklifts, and contractors create constant movement. Perimeter breaches hide inside ‘normal’ activity unless policies reflect zones and schedules.

Start with ingress design: where vehicles and pedestrians separate, where visibility fails, and where guards cannot be everywhere at once.

Layer policies by zone and shift

Loading docks need different logic than fence lines. After-hours policies should be explicit about contractor access windows and exceptions.

Tie alerts to SOP language your site manager recognizes. If operators cannot map an alert to a procedure, adoption dies.

Investigations should shrink, not grow

The goal is clip-plus-context packages: what changed, where, and suggested next steps. That is how you shorten mean time to resolve without adding headcount linearly with cameras.
