The importance of security and monitoring systems for construction sites

With rising competition, tight project deadlines and the ever-present threat of damaging criminal activity, inadequate construction security systems can be costly short and long-term. Construction sites are often victims of criminal damage and theft, and professionals agree. 62% said theft increased this year, which further underlines the need to implement a construction security system. 

But it’s not just about safety — our construction security systems can do so much more. From capturing high-quality timelapse CCTV footage to showcase project progress, to installing temporary fire alarm systems for extensions, our solutions deliver value beyond protection. We’ll help you stay informed, efficient, and secure on every project.

Intelligent access control

Our construction security systems don’t just keep bad actors out. Access control can also be used to give risk assessments before workers enter, to ensure their details align with your records and that they have adequate qualifications, making sure you stay compliant.

Day-to-day monitoring

Our advanced, AI-powered CCTV systems can be used to measure the number of people on site, and also keep an eye on who is or isn’t wearing appropriate attire. We can ensure you remain health and safety compliant and minimise liability, freeing you up to focus on the bigger picture.

Protect property and personnel

Safeguarding your workforce from unauthorised individuals, accidents, and potential criminal activities like arson or vandalism is paramount. From advanced CCTV to SoloGuard, SECOM’s comprehensive construction security systems not only protects your property but also keeps your personnel safe.
