Surveillance Requirements
Clark-Dietrich Building Systems, a leading metal framing manufacturer in Sparrows Point, MD, needed a high-performance surveillance system to monitor a large industrial site. With steel coil production, cranes, forklifts, and shipping docks in constant motion, the facility required reliable 24/7 coverage of all operational areas, plus remote access for corporate staff.
Their existing setup lacked the clarity, storage, and coverage needed for such a high-risk environment. They turned to Alpha Cameras & Security for a complete overhaul.
Security Solution
We delivered a fully hardwired 4K surveillance system with 40 cameras strategically placed throughout the interior and exterior of the facility.
- 40x 8MP 4K IP Cameras for maximum clarity
- Manufacturing Bay Coverage – steel processing, conveyor lines, and machinery
- Forklift & Yard Surveillance – tracks movement of materials and staff
- Shipping Docks – loading zones, UPS drop-off points, and coil deliveries
- Maintenance Shop – tool protection and inventory monitoring
- Lobby & Access Points – secure visitor entry and staff entrances
- 64-Channel NVR with 60-day storage
- Dedicated PoE switches and gigabit switch for an isolated camera network
- Remote viewing via EZStation desktop and mobile app

Review by Client
Phil Ligon, Ligon & Ligon Construction
We've been customers of Alpha for over 5 years now and they are professional and masters of camera technology. When we first presented our issue to them that three other companies could not figure out, they not only presented a plan that was feasible, but executed on it as well.
