Solar CCTV for Construction Sites
Construction sites are one of the clearest solar CCTV use cases because gates move, compounds move, site sheds move and nobody wants to trench cable just to protect one temporary problem point.

Use Case Guide
Best fit by site size
Most small sites: start with the VIGI solar kit. Broader monitoring jobs: step to the Hikvision solar PTZ. Planned deterrence-heavy PTZ jobs: consider the Dahua 120W solar PTZ, noting the longer lead time.
Where solar usually goes on a construction site
- Main gate
- Site shed or office
- Tool container
- Temporary compound
- Material laydown area
- Changing frontage or rear-lane exposure
What usually works
One gate + one shed
Usually VIGI first. Keep it simple and get the site protected quickly.
One broad frontage
Usually Hikvision PTZ if the operator genuinely needs zoom and a larger monitored scene.
Planned high-risk frontage
Usually Dahua PTZ if the project wants richer deterrence-style features and can wait.
