Areas you want to cover – Entrances, exits, receptions, corridors, car parks, storage rooms etc.
Resolution – What image quality do you need?
Night Vision – Can your cameras offer useful footage in low light?
Recording – How much recording space do you need?
Remote Monitoring – Can authorised users view the live and recorded footage remotely?
Cabling – Is there enough cabling, bandwidth, switches and power?
Expandable – Will it be able to grow with your business? More cameras and recording space.
Maintenance – Will the cameras need regular inspection, software updates, servicing and support.

Why Invest in a Professional CCTV Camera System

A high quality camera may not offer the best surveillance if they are not placed correctly. A professional installation will take into account the area to be covered, any blind spots, what equipment will be needed, recording systems and testing.

You should also ensure you know what Security Industry Regulatory Agency (SIRA) requirements are applicable to your property. An appropriate provider will help you meet the requirements.
