Residential & Commercial CCTV

When we arrive at your property on the morning of your installation date, we will decide with you upon the best locations for the cameras in order to capture what you would like and to get a clear picture. If you have had us round to visit your property for a free quote beforehand, we would have already discussed and finalised your camera positions ready for installation day.

First, we fix the cameras plates to the wall, drilling holes for the raw-plugs and then screwing them to the wall. Once the cameras are in position, we will then neatly hide all the cable running back to the Digital Video Recorder (DVR), the routes the cables will take will be discussed with you beforehand to ensure you are happy with their concealment.

Finally, once all the cables are running back to the DVR, we are then ready to connect your DVR up to your monitor or television, this can be from your existing home setup or we can provide a monitor at an extra cost. We will then take you through how to use your CCTV or Alarm system so you can take full control of it, as well as assisting you to set up any smartphones and tablets you would like to have access to remote viewing.

Before leaving your property, we will do a full clean-up of our working areas ensuring your property is left as we found it.

When you buy a CCTV package from us, we will provide everything needed for the installation. There are no hidden costs or surprises once we arrive on the day.

Camera resolution is defined as the amount of detail that a CCTV camera can capture. Resolution is measured in pixels. A higher number of pixels means more detail and larger images without blur or being grainy.

A good rule of thumb is to have enough resolution where it is required, not automatically upgrade your CCTV cameras to the highest resolution simply because they are available.

For number plates and faces
If you want to capture number plates and recognise people’s faces, buy at least 2-megapixel CCTV cameras — based on our experience. A 1080p Full HD IP CCTV is able to identify number plates and faces within 10metres in daylight.

Covering wide areas of property
Higher resolution means greater coverage and fewer cameras needed to monitor your property.

If you want to monitor a wide range of your property, such as your farm, barn or yard, buy at least 4MP IP security cameras (systems). One of the most compelling advantages of 4mp and higher megapixel IP cameras is the combination of situation awareness and image details, which allows you to view wider areas and see more image details.
