CCTV Survey, Design & Installation

We survey your site and design CCTV around your priorities, such as:

• entrances/exits and reception areas
• corridors and communal areas (where appropriate)
• car parks and external approaches
• staff-only areas and back-of-house routes
• pharmacies, medicines rooms and controlled storage (where applicable)
• outbuildings, bin stores and vulnerable perimeter 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 industrial sites benefit from professional monitoring via an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). Well advise on whats 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 replacing everything. Common upgrades include:

• higher-detail cameras at entrances and reception
• improved low-light performance for winter evenings and out-of-hours coverage
• recorder upgrades for faster search and more reliable exporting
• storage upgrades to increase retention
• additional cameras to remove blind spots

CCTV Maintenance & Servicing

Healthcare sites are busy and often operate extended hours — planned maintenance helps keep CCTV dependable.

Typical checks include:

• camera alignment and cleaning
• playback and search speed
• time/date accuracy
• storage/retention checks
• exporting tests
• remote viewing health checks (if enabled)
• user access/permissions review (where required)

CCTV Takeovers

If you’ve inherited a system (new facilities team, previous installer unavailable, or unreliable equipment), we can carry out a health check and take over support.
