Logistics & Warehouse Security Checklist

Distribution centers, cross-docks and yards face high-value cargo theft, tailgating at truck gates, and after-hours intrusions. This checklist covers the controls insurers and TAPA-style audits expect.

Truck gates are controlled by guard, ANPR camera, or credentialed access.
Yard is lit to 5+ foot-candles with no dark zones between trailers.

Loading Docks & Doors

Every dock door has door-position sensor tied to alarm panel.
Interior man-doors on dock wall are self-closing and access-controlled.
Loading dock activity is on camera with 30+ day retention.

Access Control & People

Employees badge in at every entry, including break-room exterior doors.
Contractor / driver badges expire same day and are visibly different.
Access rights are removed within 24 hours of termination.
