Industry
ATPS Security provides construction site security from groundbreaking to handover. Construction site security guards control gate access, protect equipment and materials after hours and stand fire watch during hot work. Many builders pair officers with mobile surveillance trailers, so an alert after dark reaches an officer who can respond right away.

Construction Site Security
Updated October 2026
What we solve
Copper, tools and machinery are easy targets on open sites.
People on site after hours create injury risk for the builder.
Gates, fencing and hazards move as the project progresses.
Officers control the gate during work hours and patrol the perimeter after hours, checking fencing, containers and equipment. As the project changes, we update post orders with your superintendent. For overnight sites, mobile surveillance trailers from LiveView Technologies can trigger alerts to the officer on site.
