Security cameras for NZ business sites have to survive the weather, run where there is no mains power, and hold up as evidence when something goes wrong. Mobile Systems supplies and installs outdoor security cameras and CCTV systems built for exactly that: construction yards, depots, warehouses and remote sites across the Bay of Plenty and nationwide. We stock wireless outdoor cameras, portable CCTV units for temporary sites, and hardwired commercial systems with genuine AI-powered detection, all backed by professional installation and ongoing service. As a brand-independent installer, we fit the camera and storage setup your site needs, not the one that is easiest to sell.
A good camera does not just catch it after the fact. It stops people trying.
Why businesses need outdoor and commercial CCTV
Ever turned up to a yard on Monday morning to find a container broken into over the weekend? Theft, vandalism and unauthorised access cost NZ businesses real money every year, and most of it happens after hours when nobody is watching.
Construction sites, transport depots, forestry blocks and rural yards all share the same problem: valuable gear sitting out in the open, often with no fixed power and no permanent staff on site. That is exactly the gap outdoor and portable commercial security cameras are built to close.
Our security camera solutions
Portable CCTV units
Self-contained camera towers or trailers for temporary sites: construction projects, events, or any location without fixed infrastructure. The Dahua 60W Solar Power 4G CCTV Bundle is a genuine off-grid, all-in-one option, and our VIGI 90W and 180W solar systems run a standalone camera setup with no trenching. Also available on a CCTV hire basis.
Wireless outdoor cameras
Fixed wireless cameras for yards, gates and perimeters, connected over cellular or your existing network rather than a cable run. The VIGI InSight S345-4G bullet camera runs on built-in 4G, and the Dahua 2MP 4G IR Network Camera gives a rugged alternative with night vision.
Hardwired systems with AI detection
Full installations for permanent sites. Our VIGI InSight range covers bullet, turret and dome cameras with genuine edge AI: human and vehicle classification, smart detection zones and full-colour night vision. For wide coverage, the VIGI S655I fisheye or Dahua 12MP Panoramic IR Fisheye covers a full yard from one point, and long-range sites suit the Dahua 4MP IR 45x Starlight. Recording runs through a VIGI 16-channel NVR.
Remote monitoring
View live footage from your phone or office, wherever the site is. Useful for multi-site operators who cannot be everywhere at once.
Industries we support
Construction and civil works, transport and logistics depots, forestry and quarrying, ports and marine yards, rural and farm operations, and warehouse or retail premises across the Bay of Plenty, Coromandel, Rotorua, TaupΕ and Waikato, with equipment supplied and supported nationwide.

Installation and ongoing support
Every commercial security camera system is designed around your site, not a catalogue package. Our team handles site assessment, installation and commissioning, with an in-house workshop for servicing and repairs.
As a brand-independent supplier, we are not tied to pushing one camera brand over another, so the recommendation is about what suits your site.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between wireless and hardwired security cameras?
Wireless cameras send footage over cellular or Wi-Fi and only need a power source, making them faster to install and easier to move. Hardwired systems run cable to each camera, giving more reliable bandwidth for higher camera counts but taking more work to install. Most business sites end up using a mix of both.
Can I get a portable CCTV system for a temporary work site?
Yes. Portable CCTV towers and trailers are built for exactly this: construction sites, events and short-term projects where there is no fixed power or permanent structure to mount cameras on. Solar and battery options mean they can run independently of mains power.
Do outdoor security cameras work without mains power on-site?
Yes. Solar-powered and battery-backed camera units are a standard option for remote yards, rural sites and locations without an existing power connection.
Can security cameras integrate with GPS fleet tracking or lone worker systems?
In many cases, yes. Site cameras, fleet GPS tracking and lone worker safety solutions can work together as part of a wider site and workforce safety setup. Talk to us about your specific sites and we will confirm what is possible for your equipment mix.
Do you install CCTV outside the Bay of Plenty?
Equipment is supplied and supported nationwide across New Zealand. On-site installation is available across the Bay of Plenty, Coromandel, Rotorua, TaupΕ and Waikato, with other regions considered case by case.
