Every day on site, documented by the construction camera — defensible
From groundbreaking to handover: a continuous visual record of the build — evidence for disputes, oversight for parallel sites, security at night.

Typical Problems in Building Construction
What brings contractors and site managers to a construction camera:
- Claims without evidence — Who built what and when is hard to prove months later — without dated images it is one word against another.
- Several sites, one team — Site management commutes between projects; keeping an overview of every site costs driving time.
- Theft and vandalism at night — Tools, cables and machines are unprotected outside working hours — a fence and a lock do not stop offenders.
The Recommended Arclap Setup
For building projects we usually combine:
- Timelapse Kit — documents the structure floor by floor — dated archive, live view and automatic timelapse from one camera.
- Interior Cameras — from the fit-out onwards: one camera per room, one timelapse per trade, live from a socket.
- Security Station — secures the site at night with AI detection — optionally escalated to the alarm centre.
