How Can Construction Sites Protect Themselves Against Theft?

Security has always been a pain point for all construction sites, but a recent surge in material thefts, trespassing, and vandalism has made the landscape of construction security even more challenging. The cost of materials in particular has risen extensively, which makes stealing materials such as copper, lumber, and heavy machinery from unprotected construction sites more attractive to thieves. Cities all over the country are reporting a sharp increase in construction site theft, including one incident in Southern Florida where $30,000 was stolen in a single night from an apartment construction site.
