CCTV Systems

Smart security that protects your home

A CCTV system should do two things brilliantly: capture clear footage when it matters and be easy to access when you need it. The problem is many home camera installs are done as a quick “camera on a wall” approach — resulting in blind spots, poor night footage, unreliable recordings, and apps that don’t work when you actually need them.

We design and install residential CCTV systems that deliver real security outcomes: smart coverage planning, clean installation, reliable recording, and secure remote viewing — with the option to integrate into your wider home automation and security setup.

What is a residential CCTV system?

A home CCTV system typically includes:

  • Strategically placed security cameras (exterior and/or interior, where appropriate)

  • A reliable recording system (so footage is actually stored and retrievable)

  • Secure remote access (view live and recorded footage from your phone)

  • Smart motion alerts and event notifications

  • Optional integration with alarm systems, lighting, and automation scenes

The key is designing the right cameras, positions, angles, and recording approach for your specific property.

Why homeowners choose professional CCTV

Proper coverage (no blind spots)

We plan camera placement to cover entries, driveways, gates, perimeter lines, and key outdoor areas — without wasting cameras on poor angles.

Clear footage day and night

Good results come from correct camera selection, mounting height, lens choice, and lighting conditions — especially for night viewing.

Reliable recording and retrieval

Footage should be easy to search, export, and review — not a frustrating guessing game.

Secure remote viewing

We configure access correctly so you can check your home from anywhere, without compromising security.

Clean, discreet installation

Cables are concealed where possible, mounts are tidy, and placement is designed to suit the architecture.

CCTV features we commonly deliver

  • High-quality day/night cameras for crisp footage

  • Smart motion detection and alert zones (reduce false alarms)

  • Recording retention planning (how many days you want stored)

  • Secure mobile app access for live view and playback

  • Camera coverage for driveways, garages, front door, side access, backyard

  • Optional doorbell camera or entry integration

  • Integration with home automation scenes, such as:

    • Away mode: enhanced alerts + automated lighting behaviours

    • Gate/door events: bring up camera feed on touchscreens/phones

    • Night mode: focus on perimeter movement and key zones

Designed for real homes

Every property is different — street frontage, landscaping, entry points, fence lines, lighting, and neighbours all affect what “good coverage” looks like. Our approach is to design the system around:

  • The way you enter and exit the home

  • The true risk areas (not just “what looks easy to install”)

  • Privacy considerations and respectful placement

  • A recording and access setup that stays reliable long-term

Our process

  1. Consultation / site assessment: identify key coverage areas and risks

  2. Camera plan: placement, angles, and performance requirements

  3. Installation: tidy wiring, discreet mounting, clean finishes

  4. Configuration: recording, motion zones, alerts, and remote access

  5. Handover & support: simple training + long-term support options

FAQ

  • How many cameras do I need?

    It depends on the property layout and what you want covered. Most homes focus on entries, driveway/garage, and key perimeter zones.

  • Can I view my cameras on my phone?

    Yes — we set up secure remote access for live viewing, playback, and alerts.

  • Do CCTV systems work well at night?

    Yes, with the right camera type and correct placement. Night performance is one of the biggest reasons professional design matters.

  • Can CCTV integrate with home automation?

    Absolutely. Camera events can work alongside alarms, lighting behaviours, and “Away/Night” modes.
