Where should you install CCTV cameras?

For optimal efficiency cover the following four areas on your premises, whether it’s home or commercial spaces: 1.The front door: To prevent burglars from tampering with the cameras, place them high enough out of criminals’ reach. 2.The back door: Install cameras at all back and side doors so no entrance is unguarded. 3.Rear windows: Burglars prefer these types of windows because they can’t be seen from the street. 4.Backyard and side gate: These are popular entrance zones for criminals because they aren’t visible from the street. A camera benefits you because when they realise they’re being watched or their acts are recorded criminals often retreat.

What is the best camera to use?

You need excellent footage for detailed records. This helps you when footage is used in criminal cases. Install cameras that have either a 720p or 1080p resolution. You can distinguish movement and people’s faces more effectively.

Can you see live camera footage while not on the premises?

Technology allows you to access the recordings on your phone, tablet or laptop via the internet. You can monitor your home or office even when you’re not there. It also means you don’t have to employ a security team on site in Clanwilliam since you can monitor cameras yourself.

Recordings can take up hard drive space. Must cameras record at all times?

You can minimise recordings by linking your CCTV system to motion detectors. When they pick up movement the recording system is triggered and footage will be stored.

How do you ensure your CCTV system will be effective?

You can ensure CCTV installers in Clanwilliam deliver quality service by checking their work. Here are a few tips to discuss with your contractor. You can also use these guidelines to help you find the best CCTV installers in Clanwilliam. The best ones will know how these aspects influence your system. Installation Guidelines 1.Cameras must be tested before installation. Make sure cameras are installed the right way up so you receive the right video feed. 2.A night time vision feature on cameras make them more effective. 3.After cameras are installed, shake the mounting brackets to guarantee they’re steady and secure. 4.Avoid installing cameras behind glass. Unless the camera has an infrared feature the glare of the glass will affect the camera’s vision sensor. 5.Pick the right location. Sunlight and moving leaves of trees can hamper the camera’s vision sensor. 6.Don’t install cameras beyond the wireless range. 7.Install enough cameras to cover the entire property. 8.Remember you need a power source so cameras never stop recording.
