VideoGuard has launched its advanced remote video surveillance system featuring live talk-down capabilities specifically designed for construction site security and theft prevention.
-- With construction site theft affecting over 11,000 incidents annually and causing losses between $300 million to $1 billion each year, the new surveillance system addresses critical security gaps that leave valuable equipment and materials vulnerable to criminal activity.

According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB), construction sites rank among the top locations for equipment theft, with only 21% of stolen construction equipment ever recovered. The financial impact extends beyond replacement costs, as theft incidents cause project delays and increased insurance premiums for contractors and developers.
VideoGuard's solution combines real-time monitoring with live audio intervention capabilities. When suspicious activity is detected, trained security professionals can immediately communicate with intruders through strategically placed speakers, warning them of detection and often preventing theft before it occurs. This proactive approach represents a significant advancement over traditional passive security cameras.
The system integrates with existing camera infrastructure in many cases, allowing construction companies to enhance their current security setup without complete equipment replacement. Professional monitoring operates 24/7 from a centralized command center, with immediate notification to both clients and authorities when criminal activity is confirmed.
"Construction sites face unique security challenges due to their remote locations and valuable equipment," said a VideoGuard representative. "Our live talk-down feature stops crime before it happens, protecting both equipment and project timelines. The immediate audio deterrent often causes intruders to flee without taking anything."
The service includes visual alarm verification to reduce false dispatches, video storage for evidence purposes, and integration with existing alarm systems. Construction companies can monitor multiple sites remotely while maintaining focus on project management and daily operations.
VideoGuard's new construction site surveillance system offers cost-effective security compared to on-site guards, with residential monitoring starting at $149 per month and commercial monitoring beginning at $199 per month.
