In the UK, theft costs the construction site industry in excess of £800 million every year. Indeed, construction is a huge and highly valuable industry that inevitably makes use of a large number of high-value materials, equipment, tools and machinery.
Unfortunately, this makes the industry a major target for thieves and criminals simply due to the fact that it is a profitable option for them.
Here we take an in-depth look at security on construction sites; what are the risks and challenges? And what measures can be put in place to keep the site as secure as possible?
Any time that an unauthorised person enters the construction site and carries out any kind of criminal activity, it can present a safety and security threat. These threats and challenges can actually take a fairly wide range of forms.
There are further complications that need to be considered: the issue of loss and liability that occurs as a result of trespassing or criminal damage on inadequately secured construction sites. Consider the issue that could arise if a vehicle stolen from your construction site is then used to ramraid another premises in order to commit further crime – the site could be liable.
Additionally, construction sites that are not adequately secured can be held liable for trespassers being injured in accidents, or due to safety issues caused by trespassers.
There can also be the challenge that if your work is held up by security and safety issues, it may not be possible to complete it on schedule. This can be another way that poor security can cause problems at your construction site.
There a number of challenges that make construction sites difficult to prepare for from a security perspective.
Firstly, it is important to point out that there are a number of security essentials that every construction site must have in place – often these are legal necessities. Every construction site will have differing needs and requirements. However, it is almost always the case that you will need to have:
As well as the essential access control, there are a number of other measures that should be put in place to keep the site secure at all times.
Physical security is essential, but there are some elements of operational security that can also be used on construction sites to minimise risk.

Maltaward is pleased to provide barriers and fencing in support of the Brexit Preparation Plans, Operation Fennel. This is the multi-agency response to mitigate delays in freight and passenger traffic using the Port of Dover and the Channel Tunnel to the Continent.
Operation Fennel sets out the operational methods to accommodate delayed vehicles using these facilities which are of national importance. As the shortest crossing point between the UK and mainland Europe, the short straits ports of Dover and Channel Tunnel account for 69% of all goods vehicles and 89% of all powered goods vehicles that travel between the UK and mainland.
Maltaward has supplied over 1000 TVBC’s and fencing, helping implement the HGV holding areas for the Government service known as ‘Check an HGV is Ready to Cross the Border’. The aim of the service is to ensure that freight is ready for new border controls before it enters Kent, therefore reducing congestion and avoiding any unnecessary queues in Kent.
Maltaward (Barriers) ltd have supplied barriers and fencing at three locations of the escalating plan to mitigate congestion for HGV’s and local road users.
The first zone at Ebbsfleet International car park was competed this week, which will be used to manage HMRC customs clearance from January and will also be used as a muster point when freight carrying certain goods such as seafood or livestock is prioritised.

Maltaward offers CCTV tower and standalone wireless camera systems as a security solution for vacant properties. Complementing our range of concrete barriers and void property security solutions, our CCTV systems help to deter intruders as well as preventing theft and vandalism. Our systems feature automatic detection of intrusion of travellers, squatters or attempted theft, with cameras deploying automated sirens and voice-warnings. The cameras are remotely monitored so that security can be dispatched to the site as soon as possible.
If you would like to learn more about the range of CCTV solutions we offer or would like to discuss a quote for a property, please contact us today.
Typically, after a commercial property has been vacated Maltaward reviews the perimeter security before delivering concrete barriers to secure gateways and weak points on the site. We can offer to install CCTV camera systems to monitor the site, as well as to secure openings with window screens and security doors. We can also secure access to any external staircases to reduce opportunities to access to the roof area.
We offer two types of CCTV services, either a CCTV tower or a standalone wireless security camera system.
Please read on for details on the systems we currently provide:
Our 6-metre CCTV tower system is a popular choice. Easily transported and rapidly deployed, the tower is perfect for vacant property and construction sites that require remote CCTV monitoring. Available with either high capacity batteries (with up to 4 weeks operating time), or indefinite use with a solar panel or mains power.
Some of the key features of a CCTV Tower include:
We are now offering a new Wireless Standalone Camera System with a greater range of benefits. Rather than being tower-mounted, these cameras can be placed in a variety of locations such as fences, buildings and posts. This gives the site more flexible surveillance coverage to include areas where a tower may have restricted views. The cameras are standalone and wireless, so they can be placed anywhere across your site without having to worry about how they need to be wired.
Some of the key features of the Wireless CCTV System include:
For more information on the services that we provide on concrete barriers or security solutions, please contact Maltaward by emailing us at admin@maltaward.co.uk or by filling in the form on our website with your details and your query and we will get straight back to you.

In this period of uncertainty Maltaward are aiming to maintain our full range of services in support of our customers so if buildings become unoccupied at short notice, either through encouraging staff to work from home, financial constraints, or simply relocation, our security blocks and gates could provide a temporary answer that allows access to authorised people, when necessary, whilst protecting the site from traveller & unauthorised vehicular incursion.
We are already seeing a number of requests from customers to stockpile barriers/gates on their sites in readiness for placement, as part of their contingency solution.
Fast and simple, this is a unique gate system which allows you access to your sites 24 hours a day without losing any of your security or have to make special arrangements to gain access.
The gate can be fitted with either a standard padlock or we can provide a digi-lock for you to programme with your own access code.
The gate is manufactured with an anti tamper guard box which makes it impossible for the padlock to be removed by force. A keybox option is also available giving you instant access when you need it without the stress operatives losing or going home with the keys
Made from high quality steel and galvanised for durability, the gate is simply installed in conjunction with our TVCB barriers. We install the concrete barriers either side of the unique gatesafe creating easy access for HGV’s and vans with a 4 meter wide opening. The gate can be set to open inwards or out, depending on the site circumstances. The unique base plate design ensures that there is no need to excavate for post holes avoiding damage to the road surface.
Combined with perimeter protection using TVCB’s we can secure your site from incursions and flytipping whilst maintaining access for potential tenants.
For Hire or Sale, our barriers and gates are often available next day, delivered on our own fleet of specialist Hiab and Moffet HGV’s, installed by fully qualified drivers guaranteeing a fast professional service.
With years of experience, Maltaward can deliver everything you need in order to properly secure your vacant property. The following solutions are available as a preventative measure:
To ensure complete peace of mind, call us for more information, where one of our experienced team will be happy to help you through the whole process.
