Construction site CCTV with PPE detection for UK contractors and facility teams

A site manager cannot stand at every gate and every excavation, so a short alert with a clip is often the quickest way to know something needs attention. CamAI analyses the feeds from IP cameras on your site and sends the alert straight to the people you choose. It needs cameras with power and a network connection on site.

• What UK contractors search for

  Common phrases are "construction site CCTV with PPE detection", "AI cameras for hi-vis and hard hat checks" and "site security cameras with alerts". Health and safety managers want to see the missing helmet or vest as it happens, rather than finding it in an inspection report.

• PPE and exclusion zones

  Helmet and hi-vis vest alerts are built in. A person entering a plant or vehicle-only exclusion zone raises a zone alert. Both work on cameras covering the gate, the working area and the material yard, with a clip attached so the supervisor can see what happened.

• Out-of-hours, yards and vehicles

  Alerts can flag entry to the site, material yard or store containers outside working hours, and smoke or fire in stores and yards. Plate reading at the site gate keeps an allow-list for deliveries and subcontractors and flags unknown or out-of-hours vehicles.

• Facility, cleaning and maintenance firms

  Facility management, cleaning, landscaping and building maintenance companies can use the same cameras in the buildings they look after, with uniform checks as a custom rule and alerts for plant rooms and roofs. A UK team visits first, then runs a pilot on a few cameras.

1. 01

   A residential build in Leeds

   A contractor wants a clip sent to the site manager whenever someone walks through the gate without a hard hat or vest. Out-of-hours entry to the material yard would send a separate alert to the security contact.

2. 02

   A groundworks firm in Glasgow

   A groundworks company wants an alert when anyone steps into the exclusion zone around moving plant. A plate allow-list at the gate would log delivery lorries and flag any vehicle that is not on the list.

3. 03

   A facilities company in London

   A facilities company looking after several office buildings wants alerts for plant room and roof entry outside maintenance hours. Uniform checks for its cleaning crews would be tested as a custom rule on real footage.
