Construction Site Security Across Canada
Deter theft, vandalism, and unauthorised entry with dedicated, licensed construction-site security officers.
Discuss This ServiceConstruction losses do not just show up on the balance sheet — they push schedules, lengthen critical paths, and inflate insurance premiums. Our construction-site security program is engineered to remove that risk with a mix of static overnight presence, GPS-verified mobile patrols and controlled access to materials.
Construction sites are magnets for theft, vandalism, and unauthorised entry — and downtime from these incidents can cost far more than the security investment. 1st Indigenous Security offers dedicated, uniformed construction security officers who understand OHSA, site safety plans, and how to work alongside trades without disrupting productivity.
We bring hands-on experience protecting active build sites, staging yards, and material storage compounds — with reporting that satisfies both the general contractor and the site insurer.
Our Methodology
- 01
Pre-Mobilisation Site Walk
We meet the GC on site, review the safety plan, and identify vulnerability points (copper, HVAC, fuel, tool cribs).
- 02
Layered Coverage
Overnight static posts are paired with randomised mobile patrols during off-hours and weekends.
- 03
Trade & Delivery Access Control
Officers log every trades-person, delivery and visitor at the gate, on paper or via digital sign-in.
- 04
OHSA & Safety Reporting
Officers are trained to identify and escalate WHS hazards, near-misses, and after-hours safety incidents.
- 05
Weekly GC Reporting
A written weekly report goes to the site super and project manager — no surprises at monthly ownership meetings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide fire watch during hot work?
Yes. See our Fire Watch Services page. Fire watch is often bundled with our construction security package at a preferential rate.
How do you handle unauthorised entry?
Officers document, verbally warn and, if the individual refuses to leave, escalate to police under the Trespass to Property Act.
Can you provide security through winter shut-down?
Yes. Winter and long-weekend shut-down coverage is one of our most common scopes.
Do you carry the insurance our GC requires?
We carry $2M CGL as standard and can name your GC and owner as additional insureds on request.
Are officers trained on WHS / OHSA reporting?
Yes. Every construction-site officer receives a documented OHSA orientation and understands near-miss reporting expectations.
