Unbeknownst to many, construction sites are highly susceptible to theft, trespassing, vandalism and internal loss for a number of reasons. Keeping your equipment and supplies protected, fences intact, and inventory closely monitored is critical to project success. At the end of it all your bottom line is affected negatively any time materials go missing, equipment is lost or broken, employees and contractors show up late, or timelines get delayed. Construction site monitoring is an integral part of ensuring that your project is completed on time and your budget is in the black. Acclaim Guard Services offers a variety of ways to ensure your supervisors avoid all possible on site loss.
Some of the reasons that your construction site needs a robust and overarching security plan are:
- Construction sites are empty at night. Due to the nature of the industry operating mostly during the day and the fact that the buildings are not yet ready to be inhabited, construction sites are a prime target for criminal activities at night.
- Site Management is a 24 hour job. Although your team is working during the day, there are a variety of concerns that need to be monitored in the evening as well.
- Construction site safety is dynamic. Given the ever changing nature of an area under construction, there will be safety protocols that need to be adhered to avoid losses due to injury and death.
- Construction sites are wide open. During the day construction sites are bustling with workers and when the shift is over, sometimes valuable equipment and supplies can be left in an area that is not necessarily the most secure.
- Buildings under construction are less secure. Because the buildings that are being constructed are not yet complete, they are more susceptible to theft through open walls and windows.
Patrol Services Can See Where Cameras Can’t
Patrol security services will actively patrol the entire ground area, looking in corners that cameras can’t see in. Because security professionals will consistently be patrolling the grounds, you’ll have eyes in every area, including the blind spots that security cameras miss.
Thieves Will Think Twice
When you have guards actively patrolling the construction site, thieves will think twice. Burglars that see cameras often feel like they can simply wear a ski mask, making it impossible to identify them. They know that they can cut a wire fence, and the person watching the camera might miss it until they are long gone.
Having patrol guards on the ground instantly increases the security of a construction site. Guards will hear thieves cutting chainlink fences. They will see burglars as they run across the ground in real time, making them more likely to be caught in the act. Thieves know that, and that’s why they are less likely to break into a construction site that has patrol services.
