Construction sites hold valuable tools, materials, and machinery, and they are often empty at night and at weekends. A clear out-of-hours plan keeps projects on schedule and on budget.
Secure the Perimeter
Strong hoarding, locked gates, and well-lit entrances are the first line of defence. Check fencing regularly for damage, and keep the number of access points to a minimum.
Lock Away Tools and Materials
Store tools and high-value materials in secure containers, and immobilise plant and machinery at the end of each shift. Keep a simple record of what is on site so anything missing is noticed quickly.
Use Patrols and Monitoring
Mobile patrols and CCTV monitoring provide cover when the site is closed. Varied patrol times make it harder for anyone to predict when the site will be checked.
Plan for Locking and Unlocking
Scheduled locking and unlocking services make sure the site is opened and secured at the right times every day. This helps avoid gates being left open and gives you a reliable record of site checks.
