CCTV tower hire for car parks.
Car parks combine vehicle crime, damage and access control in one space — a rapid deployment tower covers the whole area, with ANPR available where the layout suits it, and no permanent installation. Available across Hampshire and the South Coast, including Southampton, Portsmouth and the surrounding area.
Vehicle crime needs vehicle-aware coverage.
Theft from vehicles, damage and unauthorised or overstaying use are the recurring problems in surface and temporary car parks. Vehicle-aware analytics and, where suitable, ANPR give a level of evidence a generic camera doesn't.
The recurring risks in surface and temporary car parks.
- Theft from vehicles
- Vandalism and criminal damage
- Overstaying and unauthorised use
- Anti-social behaviour after dark
- Cover for one-off events and temporary parking arrangements
Detection runs on AI human and vehicle analytics as standard — see the full analytics suite, including how ANPR fits in as an add-on.
Vigil 700 — wide coverage for entrances and rows.
The Vigil 700's four-camera head and 2.9m mast suit most car parks, covering entrances and rows of parking from a single position. If ANPR is needed, we configure a dedicated ANPR camera on the approach or entrance during the site survey rather than assuming it as standard.
Car park CCTV FAQs.
Can it read number plates?
ANPR is available as a separate add-on camera on suitable approaches and entrances — it is not built into the standard tower, so tell us the layout and we'll confirm whether it's a good fit.
Is it suitable for a temporary or event car park?
Yes — no cabling or groundworks means it can be deployed for a single event or a temporary parking arrangement, not just a long-term site.
Can it monitor pedestrians as well as vehicles?
Yes, AI analytics classify human and vehicle activity, useful for car parks where both foot traffic and vehicle movement need covering.
How accurate is the ANPR camera?
It depends on plate visibility, lighting and camera position at the specific approach — we assess this at the site survey rather than guaranteeing a read rate in advance.
Can it help with anti-social behaviour after dark, not just vehicle crime?
Yes — an audio challenge can be issued over the tower speaker on monitored deployments, in addition to recorded footage of the incident.
