Designed for construction sites, remote locations and temporary applications where running wires or providing permanent power isn't practical.

Videofied is a completely wireless, battery-operated security system that captures video clips of up to 10 seconds to visually verify an alarm event.
It works much like a traditional alarm system, with MotionViewers protecting the areas you choose. When motion triggers an alarm, the MotionViewer records a short video clip so you and the monitoring center can quickly determine whether the alarm was caused by a person or something else.
Designed for construction sites, remote locations and temporary applications where running wires or providing permanent power isn't practical.
One of Videofied's biggest advantages is its battery-operated, outdoor-rated control panel.
Unlike many security systems that require permanent power and a protected indoor location, Videofied can be installed where it's is needed—even when a finished building isn't available.
Whether protecting a construction site, equipment yard, or remote property, Videofied provides reliable video verification without requiring permanent power or internet infrastructure.

Designed to verify alarm events—not identify people—making it a valuable tool for quickly determining what caused an alarm.
Videofied video is designed for verification—not identification, making it a valuable tool for construction site security. The primary purpose is to quickly determine whether the alarm was triggered by:
During the day, video clarity is generally improved. However, nighttime performance for video verification depends on:
Understanding these limitations helps set realistic expectations and ensures Videofied is used where it performs best.

Videofied has been a trusted part of my business for many years because it's the right solution for certain applications.
When a project doesn't have reliable power, or installing a centrally located, powered control panel isn't practical, Videofied is often the better choice. Its completely battery-operated design, outdoor-rated control panel, and video verification make it an excellent solution for construction sites, temporary facilities, equipment yards, and other remote applications.
Rather than recommending the same system for every project, I recommend the system that best fits your site, your environment, and your security needs. Sometimes that's Ajax. Sometimes it's Videofied.
My goal is simple: help you choose the right solution—not sell you equipment you don't need.
Every property is different, but these are some of the most common questions I receive about Videofied systems. Please reach us at des@directendsecurity.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Videofied MotionViewers work much like the motion detectors found in a traditional alarm system. When motion is detected, they also capture a video clip of up to 10 seconds, allowing you and the monitoring center to quickly determine whether the alarm was caused by a person or something else.
Indoor MotionViewers detect motion up to 40 feet.
Outdoor MotionViewers detect motion up to 50 feet.
While motion detection has a defined range, the camera can see well beyond that distance, providing additional context during an alarm event.
Videofied video is designed for verification—not identification.
The purpose of the video is to help determine what caused the alarm, whether it's a person, vehicle, wildlife, or another event requiring attention. It's not intended to replace a traditional CCTV system.
Yes.
Motion detection continues to operate at the full detection range of the MotionViewer—up to 40 feet indoors and 50 feet outdoors.
Like most infrared cameras, the distance the camera can clearly illuminate at night is shorter than the motion detection range. Nighttime video quality depends on the distance from the detector and any available lighting. Additional lighting can significantly improve image clarity.
Like most infrared cameras, the distance the camera can clearly capture images at night is shorter than the MotionViewer's detection range.
No power is needed. The entire Videofied system—including the control panel—is battery operated, allowing it to continue protecting your property without requiring external power.
Battery life depends on how often the system is triggered. As a general guideline, the control panel batteries typically last 6 months to a year, while MotionViewers and other wireless devices often operate for a year or more before replacement is needed.
The system uses long-lasting lithium batteries and is continuously supervised through professional monitoring. If a panel or device stops communicating, the monitoring center is notified so the issue can be addressed.
Absolutely.
The control panel and all wireless devices can be relocated as your project progresses and your security needs change. It's one of the reasons Videofied has been such a popular solution for construction sites and temporary applications.
Both are excellent systems, but they solve different problems.
Videofied is often the better choice when a site doesn't have reliable power or when installing a centrally located, powered control panel isn't practical. Because the entire system is battery operated—including the outdoor-rated control panel—it excels at protecting construction sites, temporary facilities, and remote locations.
If your project is better suited for Ajax, I'll recommend Ajax. My goal is to help you choose the system that best fits your project.
Every property has unique security requirements, which is why every Videofied system is customized around your site. The right combination of MotionViewers, keypads, sirens, and accessories depends on what you're protecting and how the property is used.
