Security and IT infrastructure for NH car dealerships, auto parts stores, and service centers that must protect inventory and keep operations running.
Car dealerships, automotive service centers, and auto parts stores in New Hampshire face security challenges that other businesses do not. Large outdoor lots with high-value inventory, service departments with expensive tools and customer vehicles, and showroom areas with after-hours vulnerability require layered security. We have been installing automotive security and IT infrastructure in NH since 1985.
The Dealership Difference
A dealership is not an office building.
Automotive facilities face security and IT challenges that do not exist in typical commercial buildings. Vehicle lots require camera coverage that captures license plates and documents inventory across large outdoor areas. Service departments need access control that restricts tool rooms and key storage while allowing technician access during work hours. And when a system fails during tax season or a sales event, there is no time to wait for support.
We understand these constraints because we have installed systems in automotive facilities across New Hampshire since 1985. Our technicians know the difference between a showroom camera and a service bay camera. Our engineers design access control that satisfies manufacturer facility standards. And our support team answers the phone because dealerships do not close during peak sales periods.
Regulations We Design Around
- New Hampshire RSA 357-C (used motor vehicle dealers): lot security for inventory protection
- National Auto Dealers Association (NADA) security best practices for dealership operations
- Manufacturer facility standards: GM, Ford, and Toyota facility security requirements
- OSHA 29 CFR 1910 hazard communication for service bay safety compliance
- EPA hazardous waste management for service departments (40 CFR 262)
- Insurance requirements for inventory coverage and physical security measures

Where security matters most in your facility.
Showroom & Sales Floor
Cameras monitor customer interactions and vehicle displays while access control restricts back-office areas. Digital signage promotes current offers and the phone system routes calls to available sales staff with call accounting for lead tracking.
Service Department & Parts
Service bay cameras document vehicle condition and technician work. Paging systems announce vehicle readiness. Access control limits parts room entry to authorized staff. Diagnostic machines connect via network cabling for reliable network access.
Vehicle Lot & Perimeter
Wide-angle cameras cover inventory rows with license plate capture at entry points. After-hours intrusion detection protects the lot. Gate entry recording documents all access events. Perimeter lighting integrates with camera coverage.
Multi-Location Dealer Groups
Fiber optic backbone connects showroom, service center, and body shop buildings. Centralized camera monitoring across locations. Unified phone system with inter-location calling. Network segmentation keeps DMS data isolated from guest access.
Case Study
Manchester auto dealership: complete security and IT overhaul.
The Problem
A three-building dealership campus in Manchester was operating with outdated analog cameras that could not capture license plates, standalone door locks with no audit trail for key storage, and a phone system that could not route calls between showroom, service, and body shop. Recent inventory shrinkage and after-hours break-in attempts prompted a complete security review.
The Solution
Arcomm installed 24 IP cameras with wide-angle lenses for lot surveillance and license plate capture at entry points, badge access control for showroom offices and key storage rooms with dual authentication, and a service department paging system for vehicle status announcements. We also installed fiber optic connections between the showroom, service center, and body shop for unified network access.
The Result
Inventory shrinkage dropped to zero after installation. The service manager can page customers when vehicles are ready without leaving the desk. Key storage access is logged with dual authentication for accountability. And the phone system routes calls between buildings so customers reach the right department on the first call.
