Always keep an eye on building construction and civil engineering projects with video surveillance

Typical building construction projects include building single and multiple-family homes as well as commercial construction. But as soon as the builders have finished work for the day and night falls, the risk of theft on these construction sites increases. The perpetrators often target small devices, construction materials and valuable materials. But even tools, not to mention machines such as diggers or wheel loaders used in underground construction regularly disappear. Thieves also love fuels and valuable materials such as copper that is used in cables. Organised gangs and professional copper thieves target the valuable metal. This also sometimes leads to damage to machines and components that have already been erected. As well as theft, construction sites are also being increasingly affected by vandalism. Both theft and vandalism result in huge financial losses in terms of repair costs and replacement costs for machines and material. Not to mention possible contractual penalties because it was impossible to keep to schedule.

Mobile video surveillance systems are the ideal solution for avoiding delays in construction and reputational damage. Cameras monitor the construction site for up to 24 hours and can be used over several weeks and months. They’re also a cost-effective alternative or addition to conventional site security. Cost savings of up to 85% can be made by using video surveillance.
