Construction Site Security
Theft, vandalism and unauthorised access cost South African construction projects millions every year. Cyborg Security keeps your site, plant and programme protected from first excavation to final handover.
The risk — and how we manage it
Open perimeters, high-value plant, copper and cement stock, shifting site boundaries and night-time inactivity make construction sites one of the most targeted environments in the country. Losses don’t only cost replacement value — they delay programmes, trigger penalties and put workers at risk.
We design a deployment around your site plan and build stage: PSIRA-registered guards at access points, roving patrols across the perimeter, controlled material and plant registers, and optional K9, drone or CCTV overwatch for large or high-risk sites. Supervisors carry out unannounced day and night inspections and every incident is reported the same day.

Frequently asked questions
How quickly can you deploy guards to a new construction site?
For standard deployments we can typically mobilise within 24 to 72 hours of an approved quotation and site survey, depending on guard numbers and grade requirements.
Do your officers understand site safety requirements?
Yes. Officers deployed to construction sites receive site-specific induction, wear the required PPE and follow the principal contractor’s OHS Act procedures.
Can you secure a site that has no electricity or CCTV yet?
Yes. We combine manned guarding with patrols and, where needed, temporary alarm, lighting or drone surveillance solutions until permanent infrastructure is installed.
Can coverage scale up or down as the project progresses?
Absolutely. We review the deployment at each project phase and adjust guard numbers, posts and patrol frequency to match your risk profile and budget.
