Layered Security for Construction Projects
Every construction project needs a layered security approach from perimeter to interior and from start to finish. Effective construction site security combines preventive measures, mobile surveillance, and active monitoring to help protect materials, reduce unauthorized access, and keep project timelines on track.
Core Mobile Surveillance Cameras are designed for remote installations, with little to no light, internet, or power.
- Off-Grid Reliability
- Night Vision built for Job Sites
- AI Early Detection
- Built for Hard Environments
Construction Theft Prevention
Construction sites are vulnerable to theft due to the presence of valuable materials and equipment. The National Insurance Crime Bureau estimates that construction site theft costs range from $300 million to $1 billion annually in the United States. Commonly stolen items include copper, metals, lumber, and tools. Theft commonly occurs in less secure areas, such as laydown zones. Unfortunately, less than 25% of stolen items are recovered, leading to project delays and increased costs.
Plan.
Execute.
Prevent.
Early-stage preparation for Security Cameras results in significantly less unwanted activity and fewer project delays.
From the first phase to the closing stage, Core Security can deploy budget-timed Mobile Units that keep pace with your project.
Some projects happen in phases – each phase requires a new set of rules and analytics.
From the first conversation, Core Security prepares to match how the project progresses.
Prevent Construction Site Trespassing
Detect unauthorized persons early, after hours and prevent trespassing. Day and night views allow for clear detection of persons in restricted areas.
Perimeter Fencing, with Vision
Fencing can deter bad actors but can’t detect if an individual has actually crossed over. Core Mobile Units can detect fence line intrusion hundreds of feet away.

Live Video Monitoring for Construction Sites
Live and remote security professionals connected to your facility anytime, anywhere. Delivering real-time awareness, faster response, and consistent assistance when it matters most.
- Visual Alert Verification
- Each time an alert is triggered from the construction site security cameras, an operator reviews the alert and acts on the information. The operator determines whether the alert is within scope and follows the established procedure.
- Sporadic Random Visual Tours
- Several times per hour, our Operations team reviews live video footage of your project and investigates unusual activity or site conditions.
- Incident Investigation
- If a situation arises, even outside of live video monitoring hours, our Operations team will review the issue and provide support as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do construction site security cameras need internet or Wi-Fi?
Core Mobile Surveillance Units are designed for remote installations and are completely self contained. Meaning, they generate their own power and network. Our Construction site Security Cameras operate independently of your network.
Where should Construction Security Cameras be placed on a jobsite?
When we first connect, our team will review your project's map and plans to determine the best placement for Core's Mobile Surveillance Units. Generally speaking, Mobile Units should be placed on the perimeter, forming a virtual fence, and within view of the access points of the project. Our goal is to create a layered security approach, for your construction site.
Do the Construction Site Security Cameras work at night or in low light?
Core's Mobile Surveillance Units can easily see either in pitch black or in low light situations. Core uses thermal, IR, and other applicable technologies.
Is live video monitoring for my construction project better than cameras that only record?
Core's live video monitoring provides a Rapid Response to situations that develop on a Construction Project. These can be situations that require human input. Core's Operations Team monitors the live video for potential situations that arise during off hours.
Multifamily Residential Construction
Secure your residential construction site from day one with mobile surveillance that helps deter theft, protect tools and materials, and monitor jobsites without power or fixed internet. Core’s Mobile Surveillance Units provide visibility over high-value materials, equipment, and laydown areas to help reduce theft and delays across multifamily jobsites while supporting insurance and Builder’s Risk security requirements for active construction projects.
