BUSINESS CCTV IN THE RIGHT LOCATION
Our CCTV business camera systems cover analogue, HD analogue and IP cameras providing businesses with the best quality images that can be monitored on a remote PC, mobile phone or tablet – choices that are both easy to use and inexpensive.
Security
Every office, warehouse and business premises have unique security requirements. With strict rules about which locations that cameras can be placed in and sensitivities about public space and privacy, it can be somewhat of a minefield to install a camera system. But we are here to guide you through the process.
Why should my business install a CCTV system?
KEEP YOUR TEAM SECURE
• Constant Protection – 24/7 coverage of your premises • • Reduce Risk – less chance of break-ins and vandalism • • Protect Staff – lone workers have the extra protection needed when on site alone • • Health and Safety – CCTV cameras can provide evidence of incidents on-site, including cause • • Time Management – security cameras can be used alongside other methods to verify staff timekeeping •
