Physical Private Guards vs. Automated Mobile Camera Trailers

Where camera-only setups fail — and how a live officer changes the outcome

Remote camera trailers document intrusions after they happen. By the time an offshore monitoring center dispatches Sacramento PD, the copper, tools, or diesel are already gone. A visible unarmed officer at the gate — with a marked patrol vehicle and documented sweeps — prevents the loss from occurring in the first place.

Live physical deterrence
A uniformed officer at the fence line stops the majority of intrusion attempts before entry.
Active gate access management
Delivery check-ins, sub-trade verification, and after-hours access control in real time.
Documented perimeter sweeps
Timestamped patrol logs delivered to the superintendent on your preferred cadence.
Premium Unarmed Construction Security — Exclusively

We do not deploy armed guards on active jobsites. Ever.

Every Stormhammer officer is a professionally trained, de-escalation-first presence — engineered to protect heavy equipment, copper, lumber, and material laydowns with strict compliance, timestamped gate logs, and zero firearm-related civil liability for the GC or owner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are camera trailers ever enough on their own?

Not on active Sacramento jobsites. Cameras document losses; they don't prevent them. A hybrid of live officers plus cameras is the correct posture for high-value laydowns.

Can officers manage after-hours gate access for deliveries?

Yes. Our officers verify sub-trades, log deliveries, and control after-hours gate access under your written access matrix.

Are your officers armed?

No. Jobsite officers are 100% unarmed. This is a deliberate civil-liability decision for the GC and owner.

How do I verify your local track record?

Review our verified client feedback on Yelp and request a jobsite assessment from our Sacramento operations team.
