CCTV Monitoring Services Birmingham
Immediate visual response to motion sensors alarms and site alerts
Effective security in Birmingham’s dense urban environment requires rapid verification, not just recording. Eagle Security Protection (ESP) provides alert-based monitoring for construction sites across the city. We do not sit and watch empty screens; instead, we connect to your existing systems and view the live feed instantly when a sensor is triggered.
Our Strategic Partners
We work alongside established organisations to maintain site safety and operational continuity.
The Smart Way to Secure Birmingham Sites
In busy areas like the City Centre or Digbeth, continuous recording captures hours of innocent public traffic. Event-driven monitoring cuts through the noise, allowing us to focus on verified threats.
🛡️ Switch to Alert-Based MonitoringInstant Attention
Operators view the live feed the second a sensor is tripped by unauthorised movement.
Reduced False Alarms
By visually verifying the cause, we prevent unnecessary police call-outs.
Rapid Escalation
We act immediately on confirmed threats—issuing audio warnings or dispatching response units.
Cost Efficiency
You pay for the monitoring of threats, not for someone to stare at a static image.
Core Operational Protocols
"Precision is the key to prevention."
🏃 Motion-Activated Monitoring
We connect to your site's motion sensors. When a sensor detects movement on your perimeter, our control room receives an instant alert. An operator accesses the feed to verify the threat.
🔔 Alarm Verification
If your intruder alarm sounds, we remotely access the cameras to "verify" the cause before dispatching a guard or police. This prevents expensive false alarm call-outs.
☀️ Day & Night Coverage
We monitor 24/7. Daytime monitoring is critical for identifying unauthorised access to hazardous zones during active hours, as well as protecting assets overnight.
🔌 Hardware Integration
We integrate with your provided hardware (cameras/sensors). We do not install or rent equipment, but we can connect to most standard NVR/DVR or VMS platforms seamlessly.
System Failure Contingency
System Down? We Step In. "Reliability when technology fails."If your primary monitoring station is unavailable, or you have a temporary increase in risk (e.g., a power failure compromising electronic gates), we can deploy a physical Mobile Patrol unit as a backup until your systems are back online.
Connection Workflow
Seamless integration with your existing tech.
Connection
You provide us with remote access credentials to your NVR/DVR or VMS platform.
Trigger Setup
We agree on what constitutes an "Event" (e.g., motion in Zone A after 18:00).
Live Response
When an alert is received, our operators view the footage live immediately.
Escalation
We follow your instructions: Call Site Manager, Dispatch Patrol, or Call Police.

Stopping Roof Access
Jewellery Quarter Project
A refurbishment project in the Jewellery Quarter faced repeated attempts by vandals to access the roof via scaffolding.
ESP connected to the client's scaffold alarm system. When the beam sensor was broken at 2 AM, our operator immediately viewed the feed.
We saw two individuals and issued a live audio warning: "Security here. You are being monitored." The intruders fled immediately.

Answers on Monitoring Logic
Do you watch the screens 24 7?
No. We operate an Event-Driven service. We watch the screens immediately when a sensor or alarm is triggered.
Do you provide the motion sensors?
No. We monitor the equipment you already have installed. We do not rent or install hardware.
Do you record the footage?
No. Your local system NVR DVR handles the recording. We simply view the live feed to manage the incident.
Do you monitor during the day?
Yes. We monitor 24 7. Day monitoring is useful for health safety breaches or unauthorised access to restricted zones.
Can you speak to intruders?
Yes, if your system has audio speakers tannoy, we can issue a live verbal warning.
What if my internet goes down?
Remote monitoring requires an internet connection. If connection is lost, we recommend booking a Mobile Patrol as backup.
How fast is the response?
Because we are alerted by the sensor, our operators are looking at the screen within seconds of the breach.
Do you charge for false alarms?
Excessive false alarms (e.g., caused by flapping tarpaulin) may incur extra charges. We advise keeping sensors clear of debris.
Are you GDPR compliant?
We handle the viewing of data in accordance with SIA standards, but the data storage and ownership remain with the client.
Do I need a specific camera brand?
We can connect to most major systems. Please provide your system details during the enquiry.
