Security Falcon provides solar-powered mobile camera units with 24/7 live monitoring for construction sites in Oakland, CA. Our Falcon Units deploy in minutes with no trenching or hardwiring, and our in-house monitoring team watches your site around the clock. When someone crosses a boundary, we intervene in real time over the unit's built-in speaker — stopping theft and vandalism as it happens rather than reviewing footage afterward.
The East Bay carries a heavy concentration of freight, warehousing, and industrial property, much of it in areas with limited nighttime activity, and that scale is what makes construction site security harder here than it looks on paper. Copper wire, generators, compressors, welders, and compact equipment move fast on resale markets, and an active jobsite stages high-value material in the open by necessity. Most losses happen in the gap between the last worker leaving and the first arriving, and on weekends that gap can run sixty hours. Port-adjacent properties see constant through-traffic during operating hours and near-total quiet afterward, which makes the overnight window the exposure point. Oakland's concentration of port operations, freight forwarding, and food processing means the properties most at risk are often the ones furthest from a patrol route or a neighboring business that would notice something wrong.
We deploy across the East Bay and the surrounding area, including Berkeley, Alameda, Emeryville, San Leandro, Hayward, Richmond and Concord. We regularly cover properties along the I-880 corridor, the Port of Oakland, and the West Oakland and Fruitvale industrial districts. If your jobsite sits outside these areas, contact us — our coverage extends well past the immediate metro.
Standard Falcon Unit deployment to a Oakland property runs three to five business days from a signed agreement, and we can often move faster. We maintain offices and warehousing in every state we serve, so scheduling does not depend on shipping a unit across the country. Our installers handle siting and configure the virtual boundaries that determine what triggers an alert — no one from your team needs to be on site for the install.
Our solar-powered mobile units operate entirely off-grid. Four cameras provide a full 360-degree view covering up to 125,000 square feet, with starlight sensors that substantially outperform infrared in low light and LED strobes for deterrence. Where power is available, our Rapid Deploy Box mounts to a pole and delivers a 270-degree view from three high-definition cameras. Both configurations include a loudspeaker for live audio intervention and stream over secure LTE, so no site internet is required. Because our solar units need no site power, they can go up before utilities are trenched — which is exactly when a jobsite is most exposed and least likely to have any security in place.
A single on-site guard covers one position at a time and costs considerably more per month than full-perimeter camera coverage. Our Command Center watches every camera on your jobsite simultaneously rather than walking a route. When a virtual boundary is crossed, our team engages over the speaker within seconds — most incidents end there, with no police dispatch and no confrontation. Every event is recorded and documented, which holds up considerably better in an insurance claim or a dispute than a guard's recollection of what happened.
Most Oakland-area deployments happen within three to five business days of agreement. Our installers handle siting and the virtual boundary setup, and because we warehouse equipment regionally, scheduling is not dependent on freight from out of state.
Yes — that is the primary use case for the solar mobile unit. It is fully self-powered and streams over secure LTE, so it can be deployed before utilities reach the site. Battery reserve is sized to carry the unit through extended overcast stretches.
Pricing is quoted per property and covers equipment, installation, and 24/7 live monitoring by our in-house team. It depends on the size of your jobsite, how many units the perimeter requires, and whether you need solar or plug-in configurations. For most Oakland properties it lands well below the cost of even part-time guard coverage. We give you a firm number before you commit — no per-incident fees and no surprises.
