Dodgen Security ATM lighting inspection
Independent ATM Lighting & Landscape Inspections

Let There Be Light.

Let us help you stay in compliance and provide a safe environment for your customers. Most ATM robberies and assaults occur at night between 8:00 pm and midnight, and the majority of victims never see the assailant approaching. Our reports give you the information you need to make sure you have adequate lighting at your sites.

The standard

Why lighting matters

The ATM and Night Depository environment should have adequate lighting so users can perform reading and writing tasks, as well as enjoy safe passage to and from the machines. Lighting should evenly illuminate the ATM and Night Depository, serving as a deterrent to criminals and permitting the transaction to be clearly recorded on video.

The professionals of Dodgen Security Consulting have performed thousands of ATM lighting and landscape inspections for financial institutions across the country. Our extensive site surveys let our clients know if their ATM and Night Depositories meet standards.
