Overall crime rates in San Antonio, Texas are twice the national average. In addition to cars, thieves often target construction sites and equipment. With the price of lumber and other supplies at an all-time high, construction site thefts are only increasing. This isn’t a casual crime, it’s large-scale organized crime conducted by criminal gangs.
San Antonio ranked number 9 in growth for 2021, tying Las Vegas, Nevada. In fact, over the next 30-years, the population of the San Antonio metropolitan area is projected to be at least four million. Population growth means new construction, which only provides more opportunities for thieves.
New home sites are especially vulnerable, and developments on the far west side have been particularly hard-hit. Thieves not only have made off with lumber and roofing supplies but also appliances. This makes a portable security system for construction in San Antonio essential. Live, 24/7 security monitoring doesn’t just deter crime, it can get the police to your site before thieves even have a chance.
A portable security system for construction in San Antonio involves 360-degree pole-mounted high-resolution cameras broadcasting continuously to a monitoring station. The people monitoring the construction site can trigger alarms and sirens remotely while notifying the police. Construction site thieves will be thwarted before they can steal anything.
While construction is booming in San Antonio, if you’re in the construction business, 24/7 site monitoring is not an option, it’s essential.
