The challenge
Situated in the town centre of Bonnyrigg, Midlothian, the site our partner was working on was in a built up area with a lot of footfall. This meant there was potential for theft or damage and they needed the right CCTV in place to prevent any incidents from taking place.
At the beginning of the contract, the site had no source of power and there were plans for the site layout to change as the development progressed. This meant that it was crucial for our customer to work with a partner who could provide a tailored solution that could be altered as construction progressed.
That's when Kingdom Systems can onboard to make this happen.
During the initial site survey our engineers determined that the site was at high risk of interference and recommended the site perimeter was protected from the commencement of the development works.
Our first installation at the market saw our engineers install a Self Powered Ai Eco-Tower. This gave the full site 360 degree protection and a detection area spanning one hundred and forty metres. The Self Powered function solved our lack of mains electricity until the site compound was set up.
Quarterly reviews were undertaken and as the development progressed the system adapted as required. As a result, our engineers installed a fixed system to ensure total coverage of the client’s assets.
"I have had the Kingdom CCTV systems on my current project since July last year and to date it has been a pleasant hassle free experience. The system is designed well that it can easily installed almost anywhere onsite to meet the demands of our project. It can also be easily added to as a project progresses. The service of the Kingdom management has been excellent from start to finish."

The results
The implementation of our CCTV solutions meant that the site remained fully secured and totally covered throughout the duration of the development, resulting in peace of mind for the client and site management team.
We also provided the client with remote access to the systems which quickly became an invaluable tool for monitoring health and safety and communicating with staff on the ground. This also ensured that they had 24/7 monitoring so they could keep a close eye on the site during out of working hours.
As a result of the CCTV implemented on site, 10 Intrusions were detected and prevented from escalating to a more serious outcome. 2 intruders were also arrested and charged.
