A closer look at the advanced features of the security cameras we mount on our temporary power poles—designed to deliver reliable, high-quality site surveillance with minimal setup.
Covers the Areas That Matter Most
Mounted high on our power poles, the camera gives you a wide, elevated view of your site—ideal for keeping an eye on access points, equipment zones, and delivery areas.
4G Connectivity
Transmits footage and alerts via cellular network—no fixed internet needed. You can monitor the site remotely anytime.
Sharp 4 MP HD Video
Captures high-resolution footage (2560 × 1440), perfect for identifying faces, vehicles, and tracking site activity clearly.
Smart Motion Detection
Filters human and vehicle movement only—cuts out false triggers like animals or wind-blown debris—so you get precise alerts when something matters.
Two-Way Audio
Built-in speaker and mic let you communicate on-site from your phone—ideal for managing deliveries or warning off trespassers.
Reliable Video Backup
Stores footage locally with onboard memory and supports SD cards up to 256 GB—no dependence on cloud storage or internet.
Night Surveillance
Infrared night vision up to 30 m ensures full coverage around the clock, even in total darkness.
Live Viewing from Anywhere
Check in on your site any time via phone, tablet, or computer. Watch live footage or review recordings through a secure app or web portal.
Select Your Site Camera Hardware
Flexible hire options to suit any project. Mount a camera on a Poles & Holes power pole — or on your own pole, fence, or structure — for elevated site coverage. Or pick a standalone solar camera pole when there's nothing on site to mount it to.

Camera unit for site surveillance — mount on a Poles & Holes power pole during install, or hire just the camera to attach to your own pole, fence, or structure.
Both camera options share the same 4MP HD resolution, solar power, 4G connectivity, and smart motion detection. The key difference is mounting: pole-mounted cameras sit at 7 metres or higher on your temporary power pole, while standalone units are installed on their own dedicated in-ground pole at 3-4 metres.

Security Camera Hire FAQs
Common questions about our construction site security camera hire service, covering solar power, 4G connectivity, remote viewing, and installation across Brisbane and South East Queensland.
Can I hire CCTV for a building site?
Yes — our solar-powered 4G cameras are building site CCTV in all but name. They record around the clock, store footage onboard, and stream live to your phone, with no mains power, Wi-Fi or cabling needed. We hire them across Brisbane and South East Queensland.
Do you offer construction camera rental or longer lease terms?
Yes. Cameras are available on long-term hire from a minimum 84-day rental, billed weekly. For multi-stage or long-running projects we can tailor a longer lease — call (07) 3367 2237 for a rate.
How are the cameras installed?
If you're hiring a temporary power pole, we can mount the camera directly on it for easy power access. If you only require a camera, it will come on a standalone pole powered by a solar system.
How much does construction site CCTV cost to hire?
Site Watch (camera mounted on a Poles & Holes temporary power pole) starts from $60/wk; Site Secure (standalone solar pole with camera) starts from $120/wk. Minimum 84-day rental. Long-term lease rates available — call (07) 3367 2237 for a quote.
What is the minimum hire period?
Security cameras are available for long-term hire only, with a minimum rental period of 84 days.
Where do you deliver your security cameras?
We deliver across Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and most of South East Queensland. Cameras can be supplied as an add-on to our temporary builders poles or as a standalone solar-powered pole setup.
Are the cameras weatherproof?
Yes. The cameras are IP66-rated, making them fully weatherproof and suitable for all outdoor site conditions.
Is the footage private?

Construction site theft costs Australian builders millions every year. Here's why Brisbane builders are increasingly adding 4G solar security cameras to their sites in 2026.
Compare construction site security camera hire vs security guards. Guards cost $5,000-8,400/week for 24hr coverage. Our 4G solar cameras start from around $15/day. Full cost breakdown and when each option makes sense.
Not every construction site camera hire package is equal. Before you commit, check what's actually included: battery and solar config, 4G coverage, cloud-recording duration, AI detection, tamper alerts, and install turnaround. Here's what to look for before you pay a deposit.
