All construction sites must comply with Wollongong Council’s DCP Chapter E17, which mandates specific requirements for site fencing, access control, and public safety. Requirements vary based on site location and project type, but typically include secure perimeter fencing, controlled access points, and adequate lighting. Our team makes sure that your site meets all council requirements while providing maximum protection against theft and vandalism.
We pride ourselves on rapid deployment, with security personnel available 24/7 across Wollongong. For urgent requirements, we can have guards on-site within hours. For planned deployments, we typically conduct a site assessment within 24-48 hours and can implement security measures immediately following approval of our tailored security plan.
Yes, we secure construction sites of all types and sizes throughout Wollongong and the broader Illawarra region. From high-rise residential towers in the CBD to new housing developments in growth areas like West Dapto, industrial projects near Port Kembla, and commercial developments along major corridors, we have the knowledge and resources to protect any construction project.
Mobile patrols involve security officers conducting regular but randomised checks of your site throughout the night, ideal for larger sites or sites with moderate security risks. Static guards provide continuous on-site presence, offering maximum deterrence for high-value projects or sites with previous security incidents. We often recommend a combination approach, using static guards during high-risk periods and mobile patrols for ongoing protection.
Our integrated security approach guarantees immediate response to any breach. Whether CCTV, alarms, or our patrol officers detect a breach, we respond within minutes to investigate and secure the situation. We maintain direct communication with local police and will coordinate their response when necessary. We document all incidents thoroughly, providing you with detailed reports for insurance and legal purposes.
