Construction Site Security in Orange County
Overnight guards and randomized patrol for Orange County job sites, from new home villages in South County to large projects in Anaheim and Irvine.
Orange County is still building. Rancho Mission Viejo is planned for about 14,000 homes, with roughly 5,000 to 6,000 built so far and the final phase of the Village of Rienda adding 232 homes from three builders in 2026. The former El Toro base in Irvine was approved for thousands of additional homes around the Great Park.
More detail
In Anaheim, the roughly $4 billion OC Vibe district has been under construction since mid 2023, and a $1.1 billion Honda Center renovation is slated for completion by 2027. Large phased projects leave framing, copper, appliances and equipment on open lots overnight and over weekends. Thieves also go after the trades directly: in 2021 the Orange County Sheriff's Department arrested two suspects tied to 32 vehicle burglaries that took more than $100,000 in high end construction tools from work vehicles across Lake Forest, Mission Viejo, Laguna Niguel, Anaheim and other cities.
Blackout Security Services provides overnight guard posts, armed coverage for high value phases, and randomized patrol routes that check several sites per night. Our Chino base keeps North and Central County projects close. Officers work on our proprietary accountability platform with NFC checkpoint scans, geofencing, GPS tracking and real time incident logging, and you receive a documented report for each service period.

Questions we get
Is a full time guard or patrol checks better for my site?
For a single site with high value materials on hand, an overnight post is the strongest deterrent. For builders with several lots or phases, randomized patrol checks across all of them cost far less than a guard at each one. Many projects start with patrol and add a post during framing and rough in.
Can you protect contractor vehicles and tools, not just the site?
Yes. Orange County has seen organized thefts targeting tools in work vehicles. We can cover contractor parking during early and late hours and include parked vehicles on overnight patrol routes.
What drives the cost of construction security in Orange County?
Overnight posts versus patrol, armed or unarmed officers, the number of sites on a route, weekend and holiday hours and project length. Orange County follows the state minimum wage of $16.90 in 2026, and builders who bundle multiple sites or phases on one route lower their cost per site.
Will your reports help with insurance or theft claims?
Yes. Every visit is time stamped with checkpoint scans, GPS and photos, and incidents are logged in real time. The documented report for each service period gives your superintendent and insurer a clear record of coverage.
