Construction site CCTV, deployed in days not weeks

Plant and materials theft is one of the most common costs on an active build. We install rapid-deploy CCTV covering the compound, perimeter and materials storage — coordinated around the trades already on site.

01What we cover

Plant and materials go missing in the same few places

The compound entrance and materials storage carry most of the risk on an active build. We specify coverage for the whole site, not just the obvious spots.

02Typical specification

What we would usually specify for a construction site

Coverage is planned around the phase of the build and reviewed as the site progresses, so this is a starting point rather than a fixed package.

Rapid deployment units installed quickly, often within days of instruction, with no need for mains power.

Mobile access for site management live view and playback from the app, so the site manager doesn’t need to be on site to check in.

Relocatable coverage cameras moved as the compound and storage areas change through the build.

Compliant signage supplied with every installation to meet site security and data protection requirements.
