Construction Site Security Cameras and Remote Jobsite Monitoring
Construction Site Security Systems Built for Active Jobsites
Construction sites are exposed to equipment theft, material loss, vandalism, trespassing, unauthorized access, and after-hours activity. They are also temporary, infrastructure-limited environments where entrances, storage areas, equipment zones, and building phases change throughout the project.
LVT combines rapidly deployable cameras, solar-supported power, cellular connectivity, intelligent detection, remote video access, visible deterrence, event documentation, and optional monitoring workflows in one connected construction-security system. Coverage can be positioned around the areas that matter most, then adjusted as the site evolves.
Whether the priority is protecting equipment, watching material storage, monitoring gates, reviewing deliveries, or overseeing several jobsites from a central team, LVT helps construction organizations build a security approach around the property, project phase, and response requirements.

What Is a Construction Site Security Camera System?
A construction site security camera system is a temporary or permanent video-surveillance system designed to monitor equipment, materials, entrances, perimeters, staging areas, structures, and after-hours activity on an active jobsite.
A complete construction-security system goes beyond recording video. Depending on the site and selected configuration, it may include elevated visible-light cameras, PTZ or panoramic coverage, thermal or infrared visibility, solar and battery power, cellular connectivity, intelligent detection, lights, speakers, remote access, event storage, and professional monitoring.
Construction security systems must also adapt as access points, material storage areas, equipment zones, and project phases change.This makes flexible placement, remote management, and relocatable coverage especially important for active jobsites.
How Much Does Construction Site Security Cost?
Construction site security costs vary from site to site. Compare more than the monthly price: installation, power, monitoring, relocation, and losses. LVT is a subscription that includes cellular connectivity and IT services, priced by the number of units, camera types, and storage.

Frequently Asked Questions
A mobile surveillance unit (MSU) is a portable, self-contained security system that can be rapidly deployed to a location. Unlike traditional security systems that require permanent installation and infrastructure, MSUs are designed for flexibility and can operate in a variety of environments, including those with no existing power or internet connections.
LVT Units provide comprehensive surveillance that surpasses what the human eye can deliver, offering more vantage points and greater sightlines with proven cost savings. Our clients save over $10,000 monthly by implementing LVT instead of guards while maintaining continuous site monitoring through our discover, deter, and defend® approach.
LVT Units combine essential security features, including intrusion detection software, 180-degree radar coverage, AI-powered analytics, and smart generators for uninterrupted power.

Less than a day. It's quick to set up an LVT Unit and have it fully operational. Since it doesn't require dedicated construction, wiring, or a complex installation, the LVT Unit is ready for work the same day. Our team arrives at your site, positions the unit, and turns it on.
LVT Units are designed for continuous operation using two 400-watt solar panels combined with battery backups, and smart generators provide additional uninterrupted power support when units receive less sunlight due to location or weather conditions.
We designed LVT Units to operate year-round in all weather conditions, maintaining security through rugged conditions like rain, snow, fog, and ice. The system's smart generators provide superior cold weather performance, while solar panels continue working effectively even during shorter winter days and overcast conditions. These features ensure your security never faces weather-related downtime, while remote monitoring eliminates the need to visit sites during dangerous weather.
LVT Units can help decrease jobsite liability through advanced detection and documentation capabilities, securely storing all footage in the cloud as evidence if needed. The system not only helps meet insurance requirements but also can provide comprehensive monitoring of workplace safety incidents, while the stored footage can help resolve liability claims and document project progression.
Storage duration varies by system; typically, footage can be stored for 30 days or more. Access your LVT Unit footage using LVT's cloud-based system.
Yes, we offer flexible solutions where we deliver the remote monitoring camera kits to your job site when needed and take them away once your project is completed, ensuring convenience and efficiency.
