Industry Monitoring

Truck Yard Security Monitoring Built Around Your Gate

A live operator answers your gate intercom, verifies driver, carrier and purpose before entry, and logs truck and trailer numbers on every monitored entry and exit — watching covered cameras during your selected service hours.

  • Gate intercom answered live in service hours
  • Truck and trailer numbers logged in and out
  • Incident reports and daily activity logs

Risks

Truck Yard Risks Start at the Gate

Fraudulent pickups — right story, wrong driver — at an unanswered gate
Trailers moving after hours with no check against expected movements
Insurance claims that can stall without a record of who entered, and when
Overnight coverage no one can verify after the fact
Banned carriers returning to shared yards under different drivers
Tenant disputes with no entry/exit log to settle them

The Gate

The Losses That Hurt Most Go Through the Gate

A trailer doesn’t disappear from the middle of your yard — it leaves through the gate. Fraudulent pickups arrive with a convincing story; after-hours movements happen when nobody is on the intercom; insurance claims can stall without an access record. Because the losses that hurt most pass through the same chokepoint, gate discipline is one of the highest-leverage controls a yard can put in place. That is why Gazer’s yard monitoring is built around the gate: during your selected service hours, operators answer the gate intercom live, verify each driver’s identity, carrier and purpose before entry, check each visitor against your authorized lists, capture truck and trailer numbers on every monitored entry and exit — plate and seal detail where coverage allows — and run exit-side checks against expected movements, on covered cameras, through the service hours you choose — most yards run full 24-hour coverage, while others cover nights, weekends and holidays only. The result is a gate that produces records, not just openings — access events land in GazerYMS, Gazer’s yard management system.

Technology + operators

More Than Motion Alerts

Motion alerts tell you something moved. They don’t answer an intercom, check a licence, or hold a flagged trailer’s exit approval. AI-assisted detection flags activity on covered cameras; live operators handle the judgment calls during your selected service hours — verifying drivers before entry, capturing trailer, plate, and seal detail where coverage allows, issuing voice-down warnings where speakers exist to help deter intruders, and holding entry or exit approval on flagged trucks and trailers per your approved protocol. Every confirmed incident during monitored hours gets a written report, and every monitored day gets an activity log.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you provide truck yard security for trucking companies and shared yards?

Yes. Gazer provides remote truck yard security and monitoring for trucking companies, carriers, and shared multi-tenant yards — operators verify drivers and visitors at the gate and log every monitored entry and exit during your service hours.

Can your operators actually hold a flagged truck at the gate?

Procedurally, yes. Flagged trucks and trailers have their entry or exit approval held under the protocol you approve — operators check exits against expected movements and follow your escalation steps when something doesn't match. Operators don't physically control the gate hardware; your protocol decides what happens next, and every incident operators handle is documented in a written report.

Can Gazer handle a shared yard with tenant companies?

Yes. In shared and multi-tenant yards, operators apply the access rules you approve for each company at the gate — including any bans you direct — and per-company yard records are kept in GazerYMS. The yard operator keeps the yard-wide view of monitored activity.

Can Gazer support truck yard gate entry and exit?

Yes. Gazer can support gate entry and exit workflows where compatible systems are in place, including operator review, intercom support, driver verification, and access event logging.

Can operators capture truck and trailer details?

Yes. Operators can capture details such as driver information, truck number, trailer number, visitor information, and access activity based on the yard's workflow.

What hours can Gazer cover?

Coverage follows your plan. Most yards choose full 24-hour coverage; others run evenings, overnights, weekends, and holidays only. Operators watch covered cameras live during the service hours in your plan.

Does truck yard monitoring include reports?

Yes. Gate activity, driver and visitor events, incidents, and access details can be documented in logs and reports.
