As nights draw in and opportunistic theft rises, companies must not wait until it\u2019s too late to take action on construction site security<\/h2>\n

The rising costs of inflation, wages, building materials and the energy crises have led many construction companies to explore cost-cutting measures.<\/p>\n

Commercial and residential property markets are slowing down and the construction industry is seeing increased pressure on profits.<\/p>\n

Contractors often find themselves compromising on essential construction site security measures, but they cannot afford to sit back and let more and more equipment be snatched from under their noses.<\/p>\n

Statistics indicate that the cost of theft in the UK\u2019s construction industry each year is between \u00a3600m and \u00a31bn, of which only 2% is recovered, according to a review conducted by leading insurer Allianz Cornhill.<\/p>\n

As the saying goes, \u201cbetter safe than sorry,\u201d this still holds true because crimes can strike anywhere, at any time.<\/p>\n

Opportunistic theft is on the rise<\/h3>\n

The UK\u2019s shift from red to white diesel has inadvertently led to a surge in opportunity theft.<\/p>\n

Companies now face a new set of construction site security<\/a> concerns as thieves target their sites to steal valuable white diesel, a commodity made even more valuable due to soaring fuel prices.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, with winter\u2019s onset meaning longer nights and fewer staff presence onsite,
\nthe construction industry is once again bracing itself against a period of heightened
\ntheft: the nightmare during Christmas!<\/p>\n

With years of experience, Millennium Security has defined three simple steps that
\nwill increase protection on your premises without breaking the bank.<\/p>\n

How to increase construction site security on your premises<\/h3>\n

1. Illuminate the site<\/h4>\n

If you can\u2019t afford expensive lighting systems then a few spotlights with motion sensors in
\ntargeted areas will make a huge difference as a deterrent.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Also, they are only be activated when there is a trespasser, so they save energy and therefore costs. These spotlights can also be incorporated into Millennium\u2019s Wireless Intruder Detection Camera Systems<\/a>, as well as fire monitoring such as heat sensors.<\/p>\n

2. Bolstering security around access points<\/h4>\n

Perimeter protection such as hoarding rather than heras fencing will reduce trespassing.<\/p>\n

Deploying cameras around the perimeter will act as a major deterrent and will, of course, also assist in any insurance claims after a break-in.<\/p>\n

Adding visible obstacles such as padlocks, Digi locks, physical barriers, sirens, rapid deployment towers<\/a> and signs warning CCTV is in operation will all help to deter the trespasser.<\/p>\n

3. Monitoring your construction site<\/h4>\n

Good neighbours count for a lot. The same goes for the construction sites or vacant properties: if you have a site in a residential area, why not pass on contact details for emergencies? Naturally, when it comes to the early hours of the morning, the neighbourhood cannot assist.<\/p>\n

So, 24\/7 monitoring through camera systems or manned guarding<\/a> is still the optimal choice.<\/p>\n

Does \u201cgreen\u201d mean \u201cpricey\u201d?<\/h3>\n

Apart from increased theft and inflation related costs, there is a third major challenge faced by the industry: sustainability.<\/p>\n

From ESG scores to net zero plans, principal contractors and their subcontractors have been working fervently in optimising procedures, innovating products and sourcing alternative suppliers in a bid to assure clients and stakeholders on the environmental responsibilities taken on by the company.<\/p>\n

The generalised perception is that this comes at a cost. Although once that may have been true, of late, markets have evolved to provide competitive yet \u201cclean\u201d solutions.<\/p>\n

The increase in choice and supply has created a buyer\u2019s market again. With regards to security, there is no doubt that the solar-powered CCTV towers is a must-have for any concerned with green alternatives: no wiring (which usually gets thrown away at the end of the project – more waste!), no \u201cdirty\u201d fuel to power the cameras and total flexibility in locating and moving around site.<\/p>\n

And best of all, price wise, it comes in at a fraction of the cost of a patrol guard or even wired CCTV systems.<\/p>\n

At Millennium Security, we took sustainability one step further: we don\u2019t even have methanol fuel cells in our Rapid Deployment CCTV Towers as back up. Furthermore, we contracted third-party auditors to ascertain our emissions and carbon footprint, which we
\naccurately and totally offset on sustainable projects approved by the United Nations.<\/p>\n

By being accredited as Carbon Neutral, we assist our clients in reducing red tape arising from sustainability commitments and provide a solid security provider in a greener supply chain. We are also a member of the supply chain sustainability school.<\/p>\n

With a comprehensive range of construction site security solutions and sustainable alternatives, we can help you navigate the industry\u2019s demands and ensure the safety
\nand security of your premises.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t wait until it\u2019s too late to take action.<\/p>\n

Contact Millennium Security<\/a> for peace of mind.<\/p>\n
