MOBILE SECURITY CAMERA SYSTEMS

Built to Protect Construction & Building Sites, Day and Night

Construction sites contain valuable materials and equipment and are often targeted outside working hours. BauWatch camera surveillance is designed to actively monitor your site day and night, helping prevent incidents rather than simply recording them after they happen.

Highly Visible CCTV Towers — Active Deterrent

Our tall, highly visible CCTV towers act as a strong deterrent, helping to prevent theft and unauthorised access before an incident occurs.

Live View, Incident Reports & Evidence Playback

Access live footage and recordings at any time via the MyBauWatch platform, with clear incident reports provided for full visibility and accountability.

24/7 Live Monitoring by UK Alarm Receiving Centre

Your site is monitored around the clock by our NSI Gold accredited alarm receiving centre, enabling live audio warnings and fast response when activity is detected.

Solar, Wireless & Mains-Powered — No Infrastructure Needed

Our solar-powered security camera towers run entirely off-grid using battery and solar panel technology, with 4G connectivity for live monitoring, no power supply or internet connection required.

The team did a great job and stopped the break-in escalating. We were alerted straight away and BauWatch had the police on site in no time at all and the intruders were arrested.

Our mobile towers use intelligent video analytics to detect people and vehicles within agreed time windows. Alerts are sent to our 24/7 in-house Alarm Response Centre, where trained specialists verify events in real time and take immediate action (audio challenge, notify police or your nominated security partner).

We typically install within 48 hours. A free site check maps perimeter, entrances and blind spots; we then recommend the right number and placement. Towers work with or without mains (solar options available).

Wired towers include an integrated battery that keeps the system running for up to 48 hours during power loss. We also offer autonomous Solar systems (solar + battery + generator) for sites without mains power. Automated daily remote checks and our service platform identify issues fast; many are fixed remotely, and our technicians handle on-site repairs where needed.

Typically not. Guarding costs—especially with night surcharges—often exceed the cost of our 24/7 monitored solution. Human-only patrols are also more prone to gaps and error. BauWatch provides continuous, verified monitoring with immediate audio challenge and escalation, delivering stronger prevention and better value per protected hour.

Yes. We mask or avoid public space, use clear signage and follow GDPR. Footage is retained for 28 days, access is role-based, and we don’t store biometric identifiers (e.g., faces/number plates) beyond incident evidence.
