The brief

One secure, connected site for the whole build

Jersey's new acute hospital is being built at Overdale. Across the construction programme the site needs a secure perimeter, controlled contractor access and a clear record of everything that happens on it.

  • Built for a live construction siteWeatherproof hardware that copes with dust and rain, and moves as the site layout changes.
  • One place to manage it allCameras, plate recognition, doors and gates run from a single cloud console.
  • No per-camera or per-door licencesHardware is bought once, with no recurring software fees.

3Plate-reading cameras at vehicle gates
6Camera-equipped entry points
2Video intercoms for drivers and visitors
288 TBRaw recording storage
2 kmApprox. fibre across the site

Site coverage

Every fence line, gate and compound in view

Camera positions are planned on the site layout so fields of view overlap, leaving no gaps along the perimeter or around plant and material storage.

  • Overlapping coveragePanoramic cameras along hoardings, with plate readers at each vehicle entrance.
  • Planned with the site teamPositions follow the phasing plan and move as the build progresses.

Panoramic surveillance

Fewer cameras, wider views

31 G6 180 cameras give a 180° view from each position, removing blind spots around scaffolding, material stores and heavy plant.

  • Wide, detailed coverageOne camera watches a full fence run or building face.
  • Day and nightInfrared night vision keeps recording clear outside working hours.
  • Made for outdoorsWeatherproof housings suited to dust and exposed positions.

AI search and plate recognition

Find any vehicle or person in seconds

AI processing runs on site, so deliveries are logged automatically and hours of footage can be searched without scrubbing through video.

  • Plate recognition at every vehicle gate3 AI LPR cameras record each delivery and contractor vehicle.
  • Search by what you sawAn AI Key lets the team search by plate, vehicle type or person attributes.
  • Gates that open for known vehiclesRecognised plates can trigger the gate controllers directly.

Perimeter access

Only the right people through the gate

Every entrance checks who is coming in and records it, while drivers and visitors can speak to the site team before entering.

  • Video intercoms at the gates2 G3 Intercoms with two-way audio for deliveries and visitors.
  • Credentials that suit contractorsCards, fobs, PIN, phone passes or time-limited QR codes.
  • Gates, barriers and turnstiles4 Gate Hubs run vehicle barriers; an Enterprise Access Hub runs turnstiles.
  • Secure internal zones6 G6 Entry units protect tool stores and site offices.

Cloud management

Issue and revoke access from anywhere

Site managers control credentials in real time from a phone or browser, without visiting a gatehouse.

  • Tap in with a phone or watchContractor passes live in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet.
  • Visitor passes by email or textScheduled, single-use or time-limited QR codes for drivers.
  • Instant revocationRemove a contractor's access the moment they leave the project.
  • Remote releaseOpen a gate or barrier from the site office or the mobile app.

Recording and retention

Over a year of footage, kept on site

An Enterprise NVR records every camera continuously, with protection against drive failure and spare bays to grow into.

33Days at high quality
442Days at low quality
4,034GB recorded per day
6Free drive bays for expansion

Enterprise NVR 12 × 24 TB fitted, 6 bays free

Retention is estimated from each camera's resolution and frame rate at continuous recording. Protection capacity is reserved for redundancy and does not hold footage.

Bill of materials

78 units across 13 line items, plus approx. 2 km of fibre. Each item follows on its own slide; select any line to jump to it.
