Recorded footage with timestamps and night-vision provides admissible evidence for police and insurance claims. What happens if you delay ## The cost of putting it off. Common, concrete consequences we see across the Fylde Coast every month, not scare tactics, just what's documented. - 1 Cheap analogue kit with 1080p sensors produces footage too poor to identify a face beyond 5 metres, useless for prosecution. - 2 Cloud-only systems with no local recording lose footage the moment the internet drops, exactly when intruders cut the line. - 3 Default factory passwords on internet-exposed NVRs make CCTV the easiest entry point for ransomware on a business network. - 4 Coverage gaps from poorly-planned camera placement leave the side gate, the bin store and the rear of the property unwatched. - 5 Domestic-grade kit installed in commercial settings without correct GDPR signage breaches ICO requirements immediately. Our process ## A five-step system, no surprises. 1. Step 1 ### On-site inspection We attend the property, photograph the existing installation and confirm the scope in person, never quoting blind from a phone call. 2. Step 2 ### Written diagnosis & fixed quote You receive a clear breakdown by email: what we'll do, the parts used, the certificate issued, and a fixed price with no day-rate surprises. 3. Step 3 ### Scheduled installation Booked into a confirmed slot with a named lead electrician. We turn up on time, in branded vans, with the materials on board. 4. Step 4 ### Testing & certification Every install is tested under BS 7671 and signed off with the relevant NICEIC / Part P certificate uploaded to your portal. 5. Step 5 ### Aftercare & 12-month guarantee 12 months on workmanship plus manufacturer warranties on parts. One phone number, Alex or Jack, for anything that needs revisiting. Benefits ## What you actually get. ### 4K identification quality 8MP cameras let you identify a face at 15m and a number plate at 8m, far beyond entry-level kit. ### Hybrid local + cloud Local NVR records 24/7 plus secure cloud backup of motion events, survives internet outage and on-site theft. ### Smart event alerts Person and vehicle classification means you get alerted to a real intruder, not next door's cat. ### Mobile remote viewing Live view and playback on your phone via secure app, no port forwarding, no static IP needed. ### GDPR-compliant signage ICO-compliant signage and operator privacy notice supplied for every commercial install. ### Secure-by-default Factory passwords changed, two-factor enabled, firmware patched and CCTV isolated from your main business network. Specification & method ## How we deliver, in detail. We design and install Hikvision, Dahua and Uniview IP camera systems on PoE switches with NVR storage, typically 4–16 channel domestic and 16–32 channel commercial. ### Materials & equipment - Hikvision AcuSense 4MP/8MP bullet, turret and dome cameras with built-in IR to 30m+ - Hikvision NVR4-channel to NVR-K series 32-channel with RAID storage - PoE+ switches (Hikvision, Cisco SG, TP-Link), class 4/5/6 depending on camera draw - Cat6 UTP for indoor runs, Cat6 outdoor-rated UV/SWA for external runs ### Method & standards - Site survey with sight-line analysis, every camera placed for both deterrent visibility and evidential coverage - All NVR access secured: strong passwords, TLS, geo-restricted remote access - Storage sized for 30+ days retention (commercial standard) or 14+ days (typical domestic) - Maintenance access via secure VPN tunnel rather than open port forwarding ### Variations of this service - Domestic 4–6 camera systems with mobile alerts - Commercial 8–32 camera systems with operator workstations - Wireless ANPR systems for car parks and gate-entry control - Bodycam and panic-alarm integration for retail and lone-worker scenarios ### Where it applies on the Fylde Coast - Detached and semi-detached homes, 4 camera typical (front, rear, side, drive) - HMOs, communal-area-only cameras with tenant signage and GDPR notice - Retail and hospitality, counter, stockroom, exits, customer area for shoplifting and slip claims - Industrial yards, perimeter ANPR plus thermal cameras for night-time intrusion detection ### Residential vs commercial Domestic CCTV typically uses 4–6 cameras, single NVR and 14-day retention. Commercial moves to 8–32 cameras, RAID-protected NVRs, 30+ day retention, ICO/GDPR compliance documentation and often remote monitoring station integration.
