The Ajax Rapid Deployment System (ARDS) is a fully wireless, solar-powered surveillance and detection system that can be operational within 60 minutes of arrival on site, deployed by a single operator, with zero infrastructure required.
Built on the Ajax Systems professional security ecosystem, the ARDS is far more than a CCTV camera on a pole. It’s a networked, intelligent site security hub capable of anchoring an entire wireless detection and alerting system across any site, anywhere in the world.
Every alert feeds directly into Corps Monitoring, a NSI Gold ARC-accredited 24/7 alarm receiving centre. Not a recording. Not a passive system. A live, human response — EVERY time.
From construction compounds in Scotland to oil infrastructure in the Middle East, the ARDS is already protecting critical assets in some of the most demanding environments on the planet.
No groundworks. No electrician. No cabling. One person. Under an hour. The ARDS is designed to be on-site and operational before your team has finished the site induction. Whether you need immediate coverage following an incident or protection from day one of a new project, the ARDS delivers without delay.
Every alert from the ARDS feeds directly into Corps Monitoring — one of the UK’s leading NSI Gold ARC-accredited alarm receiving centres. Your site is watched around the clock by trained operators who can escalate to keyholders, police, or emergency services immediately.
Solar-powered and battery-backed, the ARDS requires no mains connection. Independently verified data from Insytly confirms 100% uptime across Scottish winters — including sites recording a minimum solar yield of just 0.02kWh on the worst recorded days. If it can perform in a Scottish winter, it will perform anywhere.
Each ARDS unit anchors a network of additional Ajax-protocol devices — motion detectors, door and window contacts, shock sensors, sirens, manual call points, and more — creating a smart, interconnected security ecosystem across an entire site. Every device communicates wirelessly. Every event is logged, timestamped, and remotely accessible.
Live camera feeds and alert notifications are available instantly via the Ajax app and client portal — on desktop or mobile, wherever you are. Your site never goes dark.
Smart....Reliable.... and ALWAYS on guard, the MotionCam Outdoor HighMount (PhOD) redefines outdoor security for modern businesses.
• Unauthorised access and perimeter breach
• Theft of plant, equipment, and materials
• Vandalism and anti-social behaviour
• After-hours intrusion across unmanned sites
• Critical infrastructure interference
ARDS has been tested and deployed across:
• Pipelines and windfarms across Scotland and Northern England
• Oil rigs, wellheads, and compressor stations in Middle Eastern summers
• Construction sites and compounds from Dumfries to the central belt and the Fife coast
• Critical national infrastructure sites across the UK
• International deployments including operations in Iraq via the Strait of Hormuz
If your site is remote, powerless, or high-risk, the ARDS was built for it.
Introducing the ARDS Guardian
HSE and Fire Safety. Off-Grid. No Excuses.
Security is only half the picture.
On remote and powerless sites, HSE regulations and fire safety legislation don’t stop applying just because there’s no mains connection. Welfare cabins, plant rooms, fuel stores, and compound entrances all carry legal obligations around fire detection, air quality monitoring, and emergency alerting, whether you’re on the grid or not.
That’s where the ARDS Guardian comes in.
The ARDS Guardian is Walton Secure’s dedicated off-grid HSE and fire safety unit, built on the same Ajax platform as the ARDS, but configured specifically to meet your site’s compliance obligations. A single solar-powered unit, deployable by one person in under an hour, becomes the hub of your entire site safety network.
Fire Detection & Alerting
Heat, smoke, and CO detection networked wirelessly across the site. Manual call points at every welfare cabin, plant room, and compound entrance. All sirens activate within 20 seconds of any trigger.
Air Quality Monitoring
Continuous CO₂, temperature, and humidity monitoring in enclosed spaces. High CO₂ is invisible, odourless, and causes impaired decision-making, a serious HSE liability on any site.
Security & Intrusion Detection
Forced entry, shock, and tilt detection on cabins, tool stores, and containers.
Water Leak & Flood Prevention
Flood and water ingress alerts before damage escalates overnight.
Access Control
Remote access control for gates, fuel browsers, and compound entrances. Full audit trail. No keys. No duplication risk.
1. Site Assessment
We conduct a rapid site survey to identify coverage requirements, access points, and threat vectors and recommend the right ARDS configuration for your site.
2. Rapid Deployment
Our engineers deploy the ARDS and any supporting wireless devices. From arrival to operational: under an hour.
3. Monitoring Goes Live
Your site is handed over to Corps Monitoring. Live alerts, verified response, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
4. Remote Management
You retain live visibility through the Ajax app and client portal, view cameras, check alerts, and manage your security from anywhere.
Ready to protect your site?
Whether you need emergency deployment or planned coverage for a long-term project, our team will have a solution to you fast.
