Job site and yard monitoring in Whitby
Sigma's live agents watch Whitby construction sites, truck yards and warehouses around the clock, from Brooklin down to the 401, and respond while something is happening rather than the next morning.
Local and live
Where the 401, 412 and 407 meet
Whitby is where Durham's highways come together. Highway 401 crosses the south end with interchanges at Brock Street and Thickson Road, Highway 412 runs about 10 km north as a freeway link to Highway 407, and the 407 itself, opened here in 2016, passes between Brooklin and the town's urban area. Four railway lines cross Whitby, including the CN and CP main lines, and large employers include a steel mill, a grocery retailer's support centre and an LCBO warehouse.
Durham Regional Police's Central West Division, which covers Whitby and northern Oshawa, saw break and enters drop from 348 in 2024 to 202 in 2025, but vehicle thefts barely moved, at 319. Building sites have been hit as well: in May and June 2026, police said a man twice broke into a house under construction near Thornton Road North and Conlin Road West, taking appliances, wiring and construction equipment, some of which later turned up for sale online. On a Whitby site, that puts fixtures and materials waiting to be installed, tools, and the pickups and trailers parked in yards near the 401 and 412 at risk.
With Sigma, a Whitby job site or yard has live eyes on it after the crew goes. AI person and vehicle detection picks up movement at the fence or among stored materials, an agent confirms it on live video and speaks straight to the intruder through the site speakers, and Durham police and your contacts are called if that doesn't end it. Each event is saved as video clips with a written report that you can pass to police or your insurer.

FAQ
Whitby monitoring questions
Our yard is off Thickson Road near the 401. Can you watch it every night?
Yes. Live agents watch every camera on the yard each night, and on weekends and holidays too. AI detection flags people and vehicles, the agent checks the video and gives a live, instant talk-down, and Durham police and your contacts are called when it's needed.
Can Sigma check our trailers for damage when they come back to the Whitby yard?
Yes. Yard Operations covers truck and trailer damage inspections done on video, visual seal checks and parking reports, so you have a dated record of each unit's condition and where it was parked.
What's involved in getting a Whitby site monitored?
Sigma's technicians come to the site to install the cameras and speakers, and if compatible cameras are already up, many of them can be tied in. The property supplies the power, internet connection and gate, and everything after that is handled by agents working remotely.
How do I get started?
Request a free site assessment or call (416) 477-5589 ext 2. A Sigma specialist reviews your layout, existing cameras and risks, then recommends the right coverage, at no cost and with no obligation. Every quote costs less than a 24/7 guard.
