CCTV Survey, Design & Installation

We survey your venue, confirm what you need the system to achieve, and design camera coverage that supports:

• clear identification at entrances/exits
• coverage of customer areas and bar/service points (where appropriate)
• incident review and evidence export
• staff-only areas and back-of-house access points

I,P CCTV systems

A reliable, cost-effective option for straightforward coverage. - Dependable overview monitoring - Often lower up-front cost - Uses DVR recording equipment

Analogue CCTV systems

A reliable, cost-effective option for straightforward coverage. - Dependable overview monitoring - Often lower up-front cost - Uses DVR recording equipment

Recording equipment:NVR vs DVR

• NVR: records IP cameras
• DVR: records analogue cameras

We also plan channel capacity so you can add cameras later without replacing the recorder.

Storage & retention (how long footage is kept)

Storage depends on camera count, resolution, frame rate and recording mode (continuous vs motion). We size storage so your retention matches your needs without losing important footage too soon.

Viewing & screen size

If you need to identify faces or vehicles, your monitor and recorder must support the camera resolution. We'll recommend a practical screen setup based on how you'll use the system.

Self-monitoring

We can configure remote viewing so authorised users can check cameras anytime.

Professional monitoring(ARC)

Some venues benefit from professional monitoring via an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). We’ll advise on what’s realistic and cost-effective for your site.

GDPR & signage 

GDPR/DPA18 responsibilities will likely apply to your CCTV system. We'll advise on sensible positioning and signage.

CCTV Upgrades

If you already have CCTV, we can often improve performance without starting from scratch. Common upgrades include:

• improved low-light/night performance
• higher-detail cameras at entrances and key internal areas
• recorder upgrades (NVR/DVR) for faster playback and more reliable exporting
• storage upgrades to achieve the retention you need

CCTV Maintenance & Servicing

Licensed premises CCTV is used heavily and needs to stay reliable. Planned maintenance helps prevent the “quiet failures” that only show up when you need footage.

Typical checks include:

• camera alignment and cleaning
• night image checks
• playback and search speed
• time/date accuracy
• storage/retention checks
• exporting tests
• remote viewing health checks

CCTV Takeovers

If you’ve inherited a system (new tenancy, change of contractor, or an installer who’s disappeared), we can carry out a health check and take over support.
