One Partner for Every Car Wash Security Need

Interface delivers an integrated security and network platform across all your car wash locations. Start with what you need most and expand over time under a single managed service with predictable, flat-rate pricing.

Stop After-Hours Incidents and Equipment Theft Before They Cost You

Car wash locations sit unmanned for 10 to 14 hours every night. High-value tunnel equipment, unattended payment kiosks, and open pad-site perimeters create concentrated risk windows. Traditional cameras record what happened. Interface stops it from happening.

Virtual Perimeter Guard

AI-powered cameras detect people and vehicles in restricted zones after hours and automatically issue voice-down warnings backed by strobe lights. When threats persist, the system escalates to Interface’s US-based Interactive Security Operations Center (iSOC), where trained intervention specialists take over in real time.

Reduce Risk, Defend Claims, and Keep Sites Running

Multi-site car wash operators face three recurring challenges: after-hours incidents that damage equipment and drive up insurance costs, questionable or hard-to-defend claims that lack clear video evidence, and location outages that hurt customer experience and revenue. Interface addresses all three under one integrated platform.

Secure Equipment Rooms. Simplify Alarm Operations.

Car wash operators inherit fragmented alarm vendors, inconsistent access policies, and legacy hardware across a growing portfolio. Interface consolidates everything under one managed service with predictable, flat-rate pricing.

Managed Intrusion Alarm

Commercial-grade alarm systems with cloud-based management. TamperShield monitors panel communications and detects tampering before a break-in, while JamAlert catches cellular jammer attacks. Together, they catch sophisticated intrusion attempts early at unmanned locations.
