CCTV you can actually rely on
From a single camera to a complete multi-site system, we design and install CCTV around what you actually need to protect. Clear footage, remote viewing, reliable recording and ongoing support, without paying a subscription just to access your own recordings.
The difference is not subtle
Drag the slider to compare what a typical outdated analogue system delivers against a modern HD IP installation. Illustrative, on the same scene.
Is your current CCTV still doing its job?
Older analogue systems can struggle to provide the detail, remote access and coverage expected from modern CCTV. If the footage is too poor to identify what happened, the system is not doing the job you installed it for.
Unidentifiable footage
Blurry, low-resolution analogue cameras often cannot capture usable evidence. When an incident happens, grainy footage will not identify a face, a plate or a suspect, which means the system cost you money and gave you nothing.
No remote access
Older DVR systems are typically locked to one monitor on site. A modern IP system lets you check live feeds and review footage from your phone, from anywhere.
Limited coverage
Analogue cameras use fixed, narrow lenses with no zoom. Modern IP cameras give wide fields of view, optical zoom and pan or tilt options, so you get more coverage per camera and fewer blind spots for the same money.
Every installation includes
Every system is specified, configured and tested to perform reliably, day and night. These come as standard, with cloud backup the one genuine optional extra.
4K ultra HD cameras
Crystal clear footage, so you can identify faces, vehicles and number plates with confidence.
Full colour night vision
Low-light sensors that deliver colour footage in near total darkness, not grainy black and white.
Remote access
Live cameras and recorded footage from your phone or computer, wherever you are.
Motion detection alerts
Push notifications when motion is detected in zones you define, including outside business hours.
Local and cloud storage
An on-site NVR for fast local access, with optional cloud backup so footage survives even if the hardware is tampered with.
Weatherproof and vandal resistant
IP67 and IK10 rated enclosures, specified for UK weather and for tamper resistance.
PoE networking
Where suitable, cameras use a single network cable for both power and data. That keeps the installation tidier and makes future expansion easier.
No subscription required
Footage is stored locally on your NVR. There is no monthly fee to watch your own recordings. Cloud backup is an optional extra if you want it.
Professional installation
Managed from site survey to go-live. Tidy cable runs, no mess left behind, and a full walkthrough on handover.
Surveyed before it is quoted
We do not price CCTV over the phone from a camera count, because the number of cameras is the answer rather than the question.
What you are actually trying to see
An entrance, a yard, a till, a stock room, a blind spot where things keep going missing. Camera placement follows from that, and it usually turns out that fewer cameras in better positions beat more cameras in obvious ones.
A recorder sized for your retention
We specify the recorder for the retention period you want, not the smallest one that fits the budget. A system that overwrites your footage after five days will have overwritten the incident by the time you go looking.
The network matters more than people expect
IP cameras are network devices, and a 4K camera on a tired network is a 4K camera you cannot watch remotely. We check that during the survey and say so when the network is the real constraint. We do network upgrades as well, so we have no reason to pretend the problem is elsewhere.
Your obligations, stated plainly
Recording people carries responsibilities: signage, a reason for recording, a retention period, and a route for somebody to request footage of themselves. We set retention up sensibly at install and tell you what you need in place. It is a short conversation, and much better had before installation than after a complaint.
Want to know what your site needs?
We will survey it and tell you honestly, including when the answer is fewer cameras than you expected.
