Standalone Solar Security Camera Hire

Two solar-powered cameras on a dedicated pole we install — a fixed camera locked on your gate, plus a pan-tilt camera that patrols the wider site. 100% off-grid and working from day one, before your site power is connected.

Dedicated Pole

Standalone security camera poles are designed for sites that don't have an existing temporary power pole — or where you need extra eyes. Each pole carries two cameras — a fixed camera trained on your gate or entry, plus a pan-tilt camera that patrols the wider site — and runs entirely off its own 90W solar panel and battery, so there's no wiring or mains power required. Tell us where you need coverage and we'll install a self-contained surveillance pole that works from day one.

What is a standalone security camera pole?

Our standalone solar camera pole is a fully self-contained surveillance system that runs without mains power or Wi-Fi. We install a dedicated pole on your site carrying two cameras and a solar power system, so it can be deployed anywhere with 4G mobile coverage — and it works from day one, before your site power is connected.

Two cameras, full coverage

Each pole carries two cameras that work together:

  • A fixed 4MP camera locked on a key point — usually your site entry or gate — for a clear, consistent record of everyone who comes and goes.
  • A 4MP pan-tilt (PTZ) camera that patrols the wider site, covering compounds, material stores, and blind spots.

100% solar powered

A 90W solar panel and large-capacity battery keep both cameras running day and night — around a week of backup even through cloudy weather — with no mains connection and no running costs.

Ideal for

  • Greenfield and remote project sites
  • Car parks and temporary parking areas
  • Roadworks and infrastructure projects
  • Sites before power is connected, or extra coverage away from your main power pole

Included with every pole

  • 4G connectivity for reliable remote access without on-site internet
  • Full-colour and infrared night vision for 24/7 monitoring
  • Smart human and vehicle detection with an active-defence siren and light
  • Two-way audio and up to 512GB onboard storage
  • Full mobile app access for live view, playback, and management from anywhere

Safety & Compliance

All standalone camera poles are designed to be highly visible as a deterrent, with secure in-ground installation and encrypted data transmission.

  • Two cameras — a fixed camera on your key entry point plus a 4MP pan-tilt camera patrolling the site
  • 100% solar: a 90W panel and 337Wh battery give around a week of backup with no sun
  • Fully off-grid — no mains power or Wi-Fi, working from day one before site power is connected
  • Full-colour night vision to 50m, two-way audio, and an active-defence siren and light
  • Up to 512GB onboard storage with encrypted 4G transmission and secure app access

Standalone security camera pole hire FAQs

Security camera hire is straightforward, but every site is different. Here are answers to the questions we hear most from builders and project managers.

What’s the difference between a standalone solar pole and a pole-mounted camera?
A standalone camera pole is an independent pole installed specifically for security — it doesn’t carry any electrical supply. A pole-mounted camera attaches to one of our existing temporary power poles, combining power and security on a single installation. Standalone poles are ideal when you need cameras but don’t need a power pole on site. The standalone pole also carries two cameras — a fixed camera on your gate plus a roaming PTZ patrol — and many sites run both setups for full coverage.
Do standalone camera poles need any power connection?
No. Our standalone camera poles are 100% solar-powered with built-in battery storage. They operate completely off-grid and can be deployed on greenfield sites with no existing infrastructure.
How quickly can a standalone camera pole be installed?
We can typically install a standalone camera pole within 1-2 days of booking across South East Queensland.
How high are the cameras mounted?
Our standalone poles position the cameras at approximately 4 to 6 metres, giving an elevated, wide-angle view across your site.
Can the camera pole be relocated during the hire?
Standalone camera poles are installed in the ground and designed to stay in one position for the duration of the hire. If you need to relocate, contact us to arrange a reinstallation.
What storage capacity do the cameras have?
Each camera includes onboard storage via SD card (up to 512GB) plus optional cloud storage via the 4G connection. The combination of local and cloud storage ensures footage is preserved even if the camera is damaged or stolen.
Why does the standalone pole have two cameras?
The two cameras do different jobs. The fixed camera stays locked on a single high-value point — usually your site entry or gate — so you always have a clear, consistent record of who comes and goes. The pan-tilt camera sweeps the wider site to cover compounds, material stores, and blind spots. Together they give you a dedicated gate record and full-site patrol from a single pole.

For total coverage, run both setups

Our two camera setups are designed to work together. The pole-mounted camera is a low-cost way to watch the compound and entry once your power's on; the standalone solar pole gives you day-one coverage and a fixed gate camera plus a roaming PTZ for everywhere else.
