Why should I install CCTV cameras?

Increased security and peace of mind
Crime deterrence and evidence collection
24/7 monitoring of property and assets
Remote access and real-time alerts (with smart systems)

What types of CCTV systems do you install?

We install both:
Wired CCTV systems – Reliable and ideal for permanent setups

Wireless CCTV systems – Flexible, quicker to install, and suitable for areas where cabling is difficult

What’s the difference between wired and wireless CCTV cameras?

Wired cameras connect via physical cables for power and video transmission, offering stable performance and high-resolution footage.

Wireless cameras transmit footage over Wi-Fi or cellular networks and are easier to relocate, though they depend on network strength.

Do your CCTV systems offer advanced features like night vision, panoramic views, PTZ, ANPR, or facial recognition?

Yes, we offer a wide range of smart CCTV features designed to enhance your security and reduce unnecessary recordings:

Night Vision – Capture clear footage in low-light or complete darkness using infrared or color-enhanced night vision.

Panoramic Cameras (180°) – Monitor wide areas with a single camera, ideal for open spaces like car parks, warehouses, or large rooms.

PTZ Cameras (Pan, Tilt, Zoom) – Manually or automatically control the camera’s movement to follow activity, zoom in on faces or licence plates, and cover large zones with fewer cameras.

ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) – Detects and records vehicle number plates automatically. Perfect for entry/exit logs, parking management, or restricted access areas.

Facial Recognition & Smart Detection – Some systems can detect, recognize, and trigger recording only when known faces or people are identified. This helps reduce storage use and false alerts by ignoring irrelevant motion, such as animals or background movement.

Do I need an internet connection for CCTV cameras to work?

No for wired systems with local storage (DVR/NVR) – They can record locally without internet.

Yes for remote viewing and smart features – Internet is required if you want access via phone or PC.
