Affordable Construction Site Security

The UK construction industry is plagued with security related problems of vandalism, theft and unlawful entry onto construction sites. Increasing copper prices are only adding fuel to the problems encountered due to the abundance of copper electrical and communications cabling readily available for the picking of thieves and unwanted visitors. Theft of air conditioner units, water heaters, solar panels, tools, fuel and anything else that is not nailed down are problems commonly faced by construction companies.
 


 
Theft of copper cabling, materials and vandalism to sites not only adds costs to construction, but most importantly delays the progress of the construction project. OHS risk management issues are also a consideration with the presence of unlawful intruders, whereby an onus of responsibility is placed on the construction site directors and construction site managers to mitigate such risks. All in all a quick, flexible and cost effective solution is generally not available, and often a manned guard is stationed to security guard these sites when construction workers are not present. The permanent construction site guard option is clearly a very expensive one and at times be very unreliable option to protect and secure a construction site
 
Camvista have now introduced their innovative and very cost effective MeerCams battery powered wireless GPRS mobile security monitoring camera systems to replace the previous traditional construction site security solutions such as manned guarding and expensive CCTV cameras security. Bringing UK construction site security at long last into the 21st century
