Why Surveillance Is Essential for Philadelphia Construction Sites

Philadelphia job sites face a unique blend of risk:

  • Theft of tools, materials, and heavy equipment
  • Vandalism and trespassing after hours
  • Injury claims without witnesses or proof
  • Unauthorized access by subcontractors or the public


Whether you’re building a rowhome in South Philly, managing a commercial site in Center City, or operating a multi-phase development in Northeast Philly, you need 24/7 video coverage that works as hard as your crew does.
