Fancy Lock Startup Roc2Loc Raises $2M
A buddy in big scale construction regales us with nightmare stories about hoodlums who blackmail his company to "protect" construction sites in the Bay Area. You don't pay for construction, you get your gear stolen. Traditional remedies are to buy a dog or pay a security company to station a retired cop all night at the site, but those are expensive and ineffective we suspect.
With that in mind we like San Francisco's Roc2Loc, which sells mobile security devices to protect construction sites, RVs, empty homes, etc. The startup has secured $2M of a $5M Series A round led by Claremont Creek Ventures says PEwire.
