Security towers are great for various companies and in many different situations. You’ll often find these towers on construction sites or in parking lots. They can increase security substantially and help protect valuable equipment, including vehicles, construction materials, tools, and more. Yet there are a few different types of security towers and choosing the right one can be difficult. One option always worth considering is a solar security tower.
We’ll take a closer look at these towers and outline why they are often the best choice. Of course, there are exceptions. If you should have any questions about security towers after reading this, feel free to get in touch.
Increases Security
Few security systems are completely invulnerable. One of the biggest challenges for many basic security systems is keeping the power on. Unfortunately, if the power goes down and the system doesn’t have backup power or batteries, it may be knocked out of service. Given that in 2021, according to Statista, more than 11,500 burglaries were reported on construction sites in the United States, it’s crucial to prioritize security.
Solar systems, however, are harder to cut power to because they have a self-contained power source and are typically equipped with batteries. Some solar systems can operate on nothing but solar power. Others may use both solar power and another energy source. In either case, it’s hard for criminals to shut them down.
As an added advantage, solar power can help cut down on your utility consumption. As a result, even if solar towers cost a bit more, they may gradually pay for themselves, at least in part. All the while, you can enjoy more reliable security. That said, cost savings can be impacted by many factors, including the local weather and the number of sunny days and hours.
Provides Flexibility
Another great thing about solar security towers is that you can sometimes place them in areas where running electrical lines may be difficult, such as remote worksites. With the right solar setup, you may not have to worry about running electrical lines. This also makes solar security more flexible, easier to deploy, and simpler to set up.
