Officers walk or drive the fence line, check gates and breaches, inspect material laydown areas, and verify that equipment left overnight is where the crew left it.
Officers staff the gate during active hours, log arrivals, check in subcontractors and deliveries, and turn away anyone without a reason to be on site. Knowing who came through matters when something goes missing.
The majority of construction theft happens after dark on an unattended site. Stationed or patrolling officers put someone on the property during exactly those hours.
Long closures are the highest-exposure windows on any project, because a thief has days rather than hours before anyone notices.
Officers focus attention on fuel, copper, tools, and anything else with resale value, which is what gets targeted first.
A stationed officer stays on site through the shift. This suits large or high-value projects, sites in areas with a history of theft, and phases where a lot of material is sitting exposed.
Mobile patrol visits on rounds. Officers arrive at set or randomized intervals, check the perimeter and access points, inspect equipment, and report conditions after each visit. This works for smaller sites, projects between phases, or builders covering several sites on one route.
Projects change over their life. A slab pour and a finish-out phase carry different exposure, so coverage that made sense in month one is often wrong by month six. We adjust the plan as the project moves rather than holding you to a schedule set at the start.
Site management gets a direct line to our leadership, not a routing queue. Officers document each shift or patrol round in writing, including gate activity, anything found out of place, and any incident with the details your insurer and law enforcement will ask for.
Reporting also feeds the plan. Repeated fence damage at the same point, after-hours activity on one side of the property, or a spike following a delivery all tell us where coverage should shift. Superintendents and project managers see the same reports we do.
Yes. Many builders staff nothing during business hours, when crews are present, and bring officers in for nights, weekends, and holiday closures.
Yes. Coverage is adjusted as the project moves. Builders commonly increase officer hours after a large material delivery, during periods when heavy equipment is left on site, and through extended closures, then scale back once the exposure passes.
That depends on officer availability and the size of the assignment. Contact us with your site location, hours, and phase, and we will confirm what we can staff and when.
Yes. Gate coverage includes checking in subcontractors, verifying deliveries against what is expected, and keeping a log of everyone who entered and left.
