Construction Site Security
Stop jobsite theft before it starts
Autom Security protects construction sites with solar-powered security trailers that are watched live, every night and every weekend. When someone walks onto your site after hours, an operator sees it, warns them over the speaker, and calls police if they stay. No power, trenching or internet is needed on your site.
We're based in Loveland, Ohio, and protect job sites across Cincinnati, Columbus, Dayton, Louisville, Lexington and Indianapolis. Plans start as low as $1,450 per month, and every new site can start with a 21-day free trial with no automatic billing.

What One Break-In Really Costs a Project
The stolen generator or spool of copper is usually the smallest part of the bill. The bigger cost is the reorder, the crew standing around waiting, and every trade stacked up behind them. Stolen equipment is rarely recovered, so the only plan that works is stopping the theft before it happens. Fences and locks slow people down, and recording-only cameras show you what happened after the fact. Neither one stops anyone at 2 a.m.

Frequently Asked Questions
We can typically have a trailer on site and recording within 24 to 48 hours of approval. Over the first 72 hours, we tune the analytics to your property so operators respond to real activity, not false alerts.
No. Each trailer runs on 1,200 watts of solar and connects over cellular, so there's no trenching, wiring or internet to set up.
AI cameras flag the person or vehicle, and a live operator reviews the video. The operator turns on the strobes and talks to them through the speaker. If they don't leave, we call police while they're still there and send you the clip.
Live-monitored trailers start as low as $1,450 per month. Pricing depends on the size of the property and how many trailers you need. Every new site can start with a 21-day free trial with no automatic billing.
Yes. Our trailers are mobile, so as work moves from sitework to vertical construction, we can reposition them to cover new laydown yards, entrances and equipment areas.
On many sites, yes. A trailer watches the site every night and weekend with four cameras and live operators, and it usually costs less than overnight guard coverage. Some contractors use both, with the trailer covering the areas a guard can't see.
Construction Security Success Stories from the Field
General contractors, developers and property owners use our trailers to stop theft and keep projects on schedule. Here's what they told us after their trailers went up.
Our site was a nuisance property before deploying a security trailer. Constant activity on the property led to the city issuing notices. After we deployed a security trailer we actually received a letter from the city thanking us for taking care of it and were able to reduce unwanted activity by over 90%!
We went from 2 to 3 break ins per week and losing $40,000 to not another incident on our site for the remainder of the project after deploying 2 Watchtower Security Trailers.
These security trailers are a no-brainer. I am able to see my property remotely, check in to see what is happening, and get notified in the event of suspicious activity.
