CCTV video surveillance is now common place commercially, in the public sector and increasingly so at residential properties. A CCTV installation is used to prevent crime, increase security and protect properties, but the list goes on; the potential uses of a CCTV installation should not be underestimated.
CCTV stands for Closed Circuit Television. The term “closed circuit” means that the system cannot be viewed by anyone, except you. CCTV can be overt or covert, with discreet hidden cameras or a obvious statement of security.
The CCTV systems installed by Visual Guardian range from simple, stand-alone cameras for smaller
properties to highly advanced, securely networked, High Definition, night vision CCTV systems, and much more.
The CCTV installation options are vast but you can be assured that every CCTV system that Visual Guardian installs is carefully designed to suit your individual requirements. We assess your property professionally and advise on the components of a CCTV installation which will suit you best.
Very often a CCTV installation comprises of multiple cameras, but recording and monitoring CCTV can be shared on a single recording device and monitor. Digital Recording (DVR) is used to record and store CCTV images and most systems allow remote monitoring, so no matter where in the world you are you can view your property using your CCTV online. All remote CCTV monitoring is secure and transmitted through special CCTV software provided.
It is possible to purchase basic CCTV equipment and install it yourself, but the quality of the equipment and installation will likely be compromised, which of course it shouldn’t when it comes to your security. It is also imperative that the images that the CCTV system captures are good enough for law enforceability. Sadly, very often they are not. The technology and hardware that we use when designing and installing CCTV systems is market leading and of the best quality.
We can advise on the suitability of any components of a CCTV installation to suit your requirements and will be happy to arrange a visit and free quotation.
