Construction Site Security Cameras for Safer Building Projects
Protect Your Construction Site with AI-Powered Surveillance
Why Construction Site Security Matters
$1 billion lost annually due to construction site theft
70% of stolen construction equipment is never recovered
Vandalism and unauthorized access delay projects and increase liability risks
Job Site Security Cameras with Live Video Monitoring
Smart Surveillance Solutions Built for Contractors
Our jobsite security camera systems are designed to give contractors peace of mind knowing their valuable equipment, crew, and materials are protected. We install weather-resistant cameras with Power over Ethernet (PoE) for stability and simplicity. Each system includes an outdoor-rated NVR inside a sealed junction box. Add a mobile hotspot with internet, and you unlock full remote video monitoring capabilities—including optional professional surveillance camera services.
How It Works
Visible security cameras are installed on poles or structures for wide-angle site coverage
Connected to a PoE NVR in a weather-resistant junction box
Powered by on-site power and internet via mobile hotspot
Cameras continuously record activities, send motion alerts, and allow remote viewing
Add professional remote video monitoring services only during select hours—or 24/7
