Construction Site Security Systems for Adelaide Projects

Deployable CCTV, solar-powered cameras, and alarm systems designed for the unique demands of Adelaide construction sites, from residential builds to major developments.

Security challenges on construction sites

Construction sites are among the most theft-prone environments in Australia. Open perimeters, valuable materials, and equipment left overnight make them easy targets.

Tool & Equipment Theft

Power tools, copper wiring, and plant equipment are high-value targets. Adelaide building sites report significant losses every year from overnight and weekend theft.

Material Pilfering

Timber, steel, plumbing fittings, and electrical supplies are easy to remove from unsecured sites. Losses often go unnoticed until stock takes reveal shortfalls.

Vandalism & Arson

Unattended sites attract trespassers who cause deliberate damage, graffiti, and in worst cases, fire. Remediation delays cost time and money.

No Permanent Power

Early-stage sites often lack mains power, making traditional wired security impossible. Solar-powered and battery-backed systems solve this problem.

Changing Site Layout

As construction progresses, sightlines change and new areas become vulnerable. Security systems need to be relocatable and adaptable to evolving site conditions.

Insurance Requirements

Many builders' insurance policies require documented security measures. CCTV and alarm systems help meet policy conditions and reduce premium costs.

Our construction site security solutions

We provide rapid-deployment security systems built for the realities of construction. Whether your site is in the Adelaide CBD, the new developments around Mount Barker, or infill projects in the western suburbs, our systems deploy fast and relocate easily.

  • * Solar-powered CCTV towers with 4G connectivity.
  • * Motion-activated cameras with instant push alerts.
  • * Portable alarm systems for site sheds and containers.
  • * Remote live viewing from your phone or tablet.
  • * Perimeter detection beams for after-hours protection.
  • * Time-lapse cameras for project documentation.

Rapid deployment

Our construction site systems are designed for fast setup. Solar-powered camera towers can be operational within hours of delivery, with no trenching, cabling, or mains power required.

As your build progresses, we relocate cameras and adjust coverage zones to match the changing layout. When the project finishes, the system is removed and can be redeployed to your next site.

Construction projects we secure

Residential Builds

New homes, knock-down rebuilds, and extensions where tools and materials are stored on-site during construction.

Commercial Developments

Office buildings, retail centres, and mixed-use developments with high-value plant and materials.

Civil Infrastructure

Road works, bridge projects, and public works sites spanning large areas with multiple access points.

Demolition Sites

Hazardous environments requiring after-hours monitoring to prevent unauthorised entry and material theft.

How we secure your construction site

1. Site assessment

We visit your site to identify high-risk areas, optimal camera positions, and power availability.

2. System specification

We recommend solar, battery, or mains-powered options based on your site conditions and project timeline.

3. Rapid deployment

Camera towers and alarm systems are delivered and installed, often operational within the same day.

4. Remote access setup

You and your project managers get app access to view live feeds, receive motion alerts, and review footage remotely.

5. Ongoing relocation

As construction phases change, we reposition cameras and adjust detection zones to cover new risk areas.

6. Decommission & redeploy

When the project completes, we remove the system cleanly and can redeploy it to your next build site.

Construction site security FAQs

Do cameras work without mains power?

Yes. Our solar-powered camera towers include battery backup and operate entirely off-grid. Adelaide's sunlight levels make solar an excellent option for most sites year-round.

How do cameras connect without site internet?

We use 4G/5G mobile data connections. Each camera tower has its own SIM and data plan, providing reliable connectivity independent of the site's network infrastructure.

Can I view the cameras from my phone?

Absolutely. You get a mobile app with live viewing, recorded playback, and push notifications when motion is detected during armed hours. Multiple users can have access.

How quickly can you deploy to a new site?

In most cases, we can have a system operational within 24-48 hours of confirmation. For urgent requirements, same-day deployment is often possible.

Are construction site cameras weatherproof?

Yes. All our construction cameras are IP67-rated or higher, built to withstand dust, rain, and the extreme temperatures common on Adelaide building sites.

Can cameras capture time-lapse footage of the build?

Yes. We can configure cameras to capture time-lapse imagery alongside their security function, giving you project documentation and marketing content at no extra cost.
