KangalGuard · the guardian that never sleeps
Off-grid farm security that catches intruders at the perimeter, scares them off and proves who they were — backed by a network of nearby farms watching out for one another. It keeps working where the mains, the Wi-Fi and the mobile signal don’t reach, and warnings reach you two ways — by text and over the farms’ own off-grid radio, the channel with no mast and no central point for anyone to take down. You’re not facing the gangs on your own any more.
The moment someone crosses the line, KangalGuard already has a read on them — whether they belong here or they don’t, and whether it’s the first time or a return visit. And every crossing quietly adds to the bigger picture: a trail of where the same crew is trying their luck, farm by farm across the area.That trail stays private — held securely by KangalGuard and shared only with the police, never posted online.
Built in Essex, for a farmer who was hit.

The problem
They take high-value kit — GPS guidance units, tractors, quads, tools — at night, off remote gates with no power and no signal, and they’ll use what they lift off one farm to hit the next one down the road the same night. One guidance unit (the cost of a small car) puts a tractor out of action mid-season, and they come back for the replacement. You catch it all on camera, and still nothing happens: cheap SIM alarms are dead in the black spots, monitored systems cost thousands and tie you in, and the footage you hand over rarely turns into justice.
Why I’m building this
I watched what it did to the farmer. Two machines worth the cost of a small car each, dead in the middle of the season — and weeks later they were still parked up, waiting on replacements, while the gang was long gone with what they came for. It was all on camera, and the footage led nowhere.
Nothing on the market fit a working farm in a black spot — cheap alarms that die without a signal, monitored contracts that cost a fortune and tie you in. So I started building the thing the farm actually needed, on the land I live on. KangalGuard is being built and proven on a real farm right now, and the watch network is forming across Essex. It isn’t a finished box on a shelf — it’s being built in the open, and the farmers who follow it now help shape what it becomes. If that’s you, grab the free Defence Kit below and you’re in.

What KangalGuard does
Invisible beams across your gates and tracks raise the alarm the moment someone crosses the line.
Solar-powered with its own long-range radio — no mains, no Wi-Fi, no mobile signal needed. It keeps working in the black spots where SIM alarms go dead.
Floodlights, a siren and a spoken warning scare them off — and a photo lands on your phone, wherever you are.
Reads number plates and recognises faces against your trusted list, flagging the strangers.
Captures the location leads and builds the evidence the police can actually act on — to trace the gang and get your kit back.
The whole area watches out for you
KangalGuard farms look out for one another. The moment one place in the network is hit, the whole area gets a heads-up to lock down — so as the gang works its way down the road, every gate they reach is already on alert and waiting for them. The gang’s own habit of working a patch becomes the thing that trips them up.
Joining the watch network costs nothing — any farmer with a phone is in. The kit on your own gates is the upgrade that turns you from a name on the list into a set of eyes the whole area depends on.
It’s the safety in numbers the countryside used to have, switched back on. The network is forming across Essex now — be the farm that’s in it, not the one the gang finds first.
Community Watch · free · join the waiting list
Text us the moment something’s wrong, and we text every farm around you — instantly. It’s a fence with no posts and no wire: a whole area watching each other’s gates, the one wall a gang can’t see coming and can’t get through. They work a patch gate to gate — so we turn the patch against them, and every farm down the road is already watching. Free to join, no app, no kit.
Get on the waiting list for your patch
The text-alert line is being switched on area by area. Add your patch and we’ll let you know the moment it goes live near you — then it’s one text to raise the alarm for everyone nearby.
No app, no kit, no cost — just your patch on the list. See our privacy policy. You can leave any time.
A break-in down the road sends an instant heads-up to every farm in your area — by text and in the app — so you can lock down before the gang reaches your gate.
This isn’t another noisy group chat. Alerts are filtered around the clock and overseen by real people, so what reaches you is the real thing — not rumour, not chatter, not a free-for-all.
Text alerts ride the phone network, which dies in black spots and isn’t yours to control. The off-grid radio doesn’t: it runs on a licence-free band as a peer-to-peer network, where every farm’s unit passes the warning on to the next. No mast, no SIM, no internet, no central server — so there’s nothing for a blackout, a dead signal or a shutdown to switch off. It’s the channel that keeps carrying warnings when the phone networks, the internet and social media are gone — which is why it’s the one we lean on.
Joining costs nothing — any farmer with a phone is welcome. Putting KangalGuard on your own gates is the upgrade that turns you from a name on the list into a set of eyes the whole area depends on.
The watch is free to join, with alerts by text and in the app. The off-grid messaging layer is an optional add-on, and there are monthly plans for farms that want round-the-clock monitored response. You only pay for the extras you choose.
Your whole farm, in your pocket
It arms itself when you leave and stands down when you are home, so there is nothing to remember. When it is not quiet, big plain buttons do the work: play a spoken warning, throw the floodlights on, sound the siren, or call the police with everything they need already prepared.
No menus to learn, no jargon, no settings to wrestle with. The clever part stays out of sight. You just see what is happening and a handful of clear choices. It is built for a busy farmer, not a security engineer — glance, decide, and get on with the day.
Interface sketch — not a finished product
The command centre
Every camera, every gate, every event in one place. Review the night in seconds, set which parts of each camera matter (the gateway, not the public road), and check your solar nodes and batteries are healthy. When the worst happens, build the evidence pack for the police — the clip, the plates, the faces and the location trail — in a couple of clicks.
Evidence that finally counts
Most farmers have a drawer full of footage that went nowhere. KangalGuard is built to change that. Every incident is logged the same way — the clip, the plates, the faces, the times, and a breadcrumb of where the gang’s devices have been over the last few days — and bundled into one clear pack the police can act on, ready to export with your crime reference number.
And because the same faces come back, it quietly builds the pattern — the fourth visit, the same vehicle, the same spot — the kind of record that turns “an allegation” into a case that holds.
These are strong leads and a solid record for the police — captured carefully under proper data-protection rules and shared only with them, never posted publicly.
Built for farms like yours
Arable and mixed farms, rural estates and smallholdings with valuable kit in places the mains, the Wi-Fi and the phone signal don’t reach. You own your KangalGuard kit and your data stays yours — never tied into a long monitoring contract just to use it on your own farm. The watch network is free to join, with optional monthly plans for the extras — round-the-clock monitored response and the off-grid messaging backbone among them.
