The most reliable surveillance tower in New Zealand.

We’re trusted by some of New Zealand’s most well known constructors. From civil to construction, one-man-band to multi-nationals.

Why site teams trust us to protect them from crime.

Our unapparelled monitoring service has been recognised in the media as being an active deterrent for New Zealand construction site security. Combined with our spoken warning message and flood lights, our G2 and G3 towers are a powerful solution.

How do our Solar Towers work for Construction Sites?

110 decibel spoken warning message

Upon intrusion or Monitoring Agent intervention, a spoken warning message plays, deterring offenders and sending them running.

Spotlights activate on detection

When an intruder enters a construction site, one or two spotlights activate. Depending on the model of tower, these are up to 4200 lumens, creating ultra bright white light and startling offenders.



Automatic arming and disarming with enhanced schedule controls

With our bespoke software partner, Watchful, our sites arm and disarm automatically according to your preferred schedule – which you can set to any time of the day or night. You can also set arm and disarm events into the future, so you can plan concrete pours and other late night works that might trigger an activation.

Every alert handled by a human agent

We have two monitoring stations responding to events 24/7, 365 days per year. One station is located in Pukekohe with a redundancy station located in Hawkes Bay.

Attack and vandal proof

While vandalism and attacks do occur, our downtime from burglaries or attacks is less than 0.03% of the time across our near 1,000 fleet of cameras. Our 1.2t concrete base and 5m pole makes it difficult to attack the solar security towers easily. In 2024 we began rolling out spike units to our high risk sites based off our collated intrusion data.

Products and pricing options to suit all budget types

With three models to choose from, we offer projects a comprehensive suite of products to select. In addition, we offer both long-term pricing incentives on our lease model and purchase options for permanent installs or where a CAPEX is more appropriate. Our supporting maintenance plans make purchasing a Crosbies Security solar tower even easier.

Supercharge your night vision with our Solar Security Towers.

When selecting a solar powered camera, you need to consider the Infrared in both ambient light and pure darkness conditions. Many CCTV cameras have inferior infrared capability, and night images often include ambient light which can make selecting the right choice deceptive. We’ve included a comparison of ambient light and pure darkness compared to daytime, for you to see the difference.

Each G3 contains two Axis P1465 OptimizedIR cameras, which provides a unique and powerful combination of camera intelligence and sophisticated LED technology, resulting in our most advanced camera-integrated IR solutions for complete darkness.
