Safety Eye Bollard
Move your site security as the risk moves
The Safety Eye Bollard is a low-level, wireless and battery-operated camera platform that can be manoeuvred around your site. Use it to protect machinery, watch a changing work area or secure a gate overnight, then move it when access is needed or the focus of the site changes.
There are no power leads, no fixed installation and no need to leave the camera in one position as the site develops.

Security that follows the work
Temporary and active sites rarely stay the same for long. Machinery moves, materials are delivered, access routes change and new structures can obstruct an area that was previously visible.
A fixed camera may be in the right place today and the wrong place next week.
The Safety Eye Bollard gives you a practical alternative. It can be moved to the area, asset or access point that needs attention, helping you adapt your security position as work progresses.

What changes with a movable camera
Before the Safety Eye Bollard
The security position stays fixed while the site changes
With the Safety Eye Bollard
Move the camera to the area that needs protecting
Moving it
Designed to be moved around the site
The bollard is supplied with two slide-in wheels and a handle. To move it, the bollard is tipped forward slightly, the wheels are inserted, and the unit can then be manoeuvred in a similar way to a sack barrow.
This makes it suitable where the camera may need to move regularly rather than remaining in one fixed position.
How teams use it
A typical gate-security routine
01
At the end of the day
Position the bollard behind the site gate, where it stands as a visible deterrent overnight.
02
When work begins
Move it out of the access route in the morning so vehicles and personnel can enter the site.
03
As the work moves
The same principle applies to machinery and equipment. When the item being protected moves, the bollard moves with it.
The technology
Freestanding, wireless and battery operated
The Safety Eye Bollard does not depend on a mains power lead or a fixed wired connection. It is:
Because it is not tied to a cable or permanent camera position, you can choose where it is needed and change that decision as the site develops.
What is included
Practical monitoring for temporary sites
Safety Eye equipment has been developed for sites where operators need to know what is happening without committing to a permanent CCTV installation. Existing Safety Eye bollards use three 1080p cameras to provide 360-degree coverage, with night-vision capability and notifications sent to an accompanying tablet when the cameras are triggered.
Available Safety Eye functionality includes:
The exact setup should be agreed around the location, intended use and area being protected.
Where it fits
The right fit when the security position needs to change
The Safety Eye Bollard is particularly suited to temporary, evolving or project-based sites.
Construction & demolition
Move the camera as machinery, work areas and valuable materials change position.
Infrastructure & utilities
Use temporary monitoring where work progresses through different sections of a site.
Events & temporary compounds
Add visible coverage without installing permanent camera infrastructure.
Vacant or transitional sites
Position the bollard around the area currently presenting the greatest risk.
Site entrances
Use the bollard behind a gate overnight, then move it when access is required.
Storage and equipment areas
Place the bollard where materials, tools or equipment remain in one defined part of the site.
Bollard or fixed CCTV?
A flexible alternative to fixed CCTV
Permanent CCTV is usually best for a completed site with a stable layout and a long-term need. The Safety Eye Bollard is intended for a different situation. It is useful when:
Rather than installing a camera around the finished layout, the bollard provides temporary monitoring during the period when the site is still changing.
On site
The bollard in position
From site entrances to open compounds, the bollard works wherever you place it.
