Supporting Security Across the North East
We protect construction sites across Newcastle and the wider region by securing compounds, boundaries and materials throughout all phases of a build.
Our towers are used to monitor boundaries, protect plant and equipment and support safety compliance before, during and after demolition works.
Whether it’s utilities, highways or telecoms, our systems help secure remote compounds, protect assets and prevent delays caused by theft or intrusion.
From local roadworks to major improvements along the A1 and A19, our towers are used for traffic monitoring, equipment protection and workforce safety.
Our Network Rail approved towers are used during trackside works, closures and compound set-ups, helping to prevent trespass and unauthorised access.
Towers provide immediate security for at-risk buildings or plots without requiring permanent infrastructure. Ideal for redevelopment or disposal stages.
Proactive Protection That Goes Beyond Recording
Our CCTV towers do more than capture footage, they are proactive security solution that actively help prevent crime.
When paired with live video monitoring, your system becomes a virtual security guard, with trained operatives ready to respond the moment motion is detected.
Once an alert is triggered, a professional monitoring agent connects directly to your cameras in real time. They assess the situation within seconds, issue a live audio warning through the tower’s speakers, and contact keyholders or emergency services if required.
This immediate intervention stops criminal activity before damage is done. Whether it’s trespassers, thieves or vandals, the presence of a live human response sends a clear message: your site is protected and intruders won’t go unnoticed.
Monitoring is available with any WCCTV tower and delivered through our NSI Gold accredited partners, ensuring industry-best response protocols and total confidence in the service.
Professional Onsite Response
When a verified threat to your property or project is detected by our monitoring team, it demands an immediate response.
In most cases, the audio challenge and flashing lights on our CCTV Towers will be enough to deter the event.
Sometimes, though, additional support is required. Our mobile keyholding service gives you an in-person, boots-on-the-ground response to ensure that your sites are fully protected.
Available exclusively with WCCTV’s monitored deployments, this service connects your site to trained security personnel who can investigate incidents, reset systems, secure access points or escalate issues as needed.
There’s no need to send your own team or expose staff to risk. Our partners handle everything professionally and discreetly, following agreed escalation procedures and reporting protocols.
It’s a key part of our fully managed security model. You get remote eyes on your site and boots on the ground when it matters most.
