CCTV Installation Aldershot Hampshire (GU11): With ever falling costs and technology improvements, security and CCTV cameras have become common in Aldershot on both residential and commercial buildings. But the security benefits may be relinquished if cameras are installed inadequately or the CCTV system's plan has been improperly designed. It's recommended that if you are thinking of installing surveillance cameras on your homein Aldershot, you use the knowledge and experience of a specialist CCTV installation service.
TYPES OF CCTV SYSTEMS
Analogue Equipment - These are the standard systems which can monitor and record over a multi-camera installation. They are able to record video and images to on-site Digital Video Recorders (DVR) and are able to provide a link to the internet for viewing remotely via your tablet or smartphone. The DVR will have an option to copy stored data across to an external storage device, such as a USB stick, or may have a CD or DVD recorder inbuilt to enable video and images to be given to the relevant authorities for evidence purposes. The web connection is entirely optional, since these CCTV setups are designed to perform as a standalone system when necessary.
Internet Protocol Systems - Wireless cameras connect to a local device via their own intranet (network), or can connect to a router for the transfer of their video signals. The DVR in an IP CCTV system has a secure gateway which the cameras can link into wirelessly, whilst also being able to connect through a router for monitoring and viewing purposes. IP cameras also send images, video footage and alarm notifications straight to your mobile, thus adding an extra security layer by preventing an intruder from destroying video evidence on a local DVR. But, the security features and encryption must be configured correctly to prevent any unwelcome viewing of your cameras and their recordings.
Cloud Systems - These CCTV cameras record to remote storage based in a so-called "cloud" "cloud". So long as your CCTV equipment can connect to the net, either via the DVR in an analogue system or directly through a router as in IP cameras, it will have the ability to use cloud based storage. The storing of data in the "cloud" usually involves a yearly or monthly fee and is based upon the quantity of data you want to store, and whether or not you want your Aldershot property by a professional CCTV company.
LIGHTING FOR CAMERAS
Today's CCTV cameras will often come complete with built-in infrared illumination to enable use in dark conditions. An infrared camera will record a black and white image but should still deliver a similar resolution to that recorded in normal daytime light. If you think the resolution produced by infrared is not sufficient for your CCTV's requirements, you'll be able to install external security lighting to create a natural light. When attached into a CCTV security system these lamps deliver a brighter light source and can also be configured to light only when the camera senses motion in its field of view.
If you are using motion sensor security lights with a camera system, you have to make sure that the light doesn't overly shine on neighbour's homes and gardens, or shine straight onto a road.
CCTV AND THE LAW
Domestic CCTV systems that capture images over the edges of the boundary of your property, into a neighbour's garden or onto the street, are no longer exempt from the Data Protection Act. The Data Protection Act doesn't mean that the use of CCTV cameras are illegal, but any recordings stored must be given protection from potential misuse for any person who appears in the recordings.
If your CCTV is able to record even a small view of a public area, the Information Commissioner's Office has specific requirements on data protection and signage. You can ensure all legal obligations are satisfied by employing a competent CCTV specialist in Aldershot for the installing of your CCTV security system.
If your property is within a national park, is in an area of scientific interest, is in a conservation area or is listed, you'll need to double check with your local authority if planning permission is necessary. Planning permission for the majority of other buildings in Aldershot will not be needed if they are sited at least 2.5m above the ground and they do not jut out more than a metre from your outside wall.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT CCTV SYSTEM
Whatever your budget you should be able to find a CCTV security system that suits your needs. The least expensive CCTV camera system may still be able to provide remote recording and monitoring from just one camera, while a multi camera, motion detecting system linked to your burglar alarm and remotely monitored by a security company, will of course be at the higher end of the budget level. An honest and experienced CCTV installer in Aldershot will only install equipment that fits your particular situation.
A decent Aldershot CCTV installer will also observe your stated budget and ensure you receive the most effective CCTV system you can afford. No matter how much you shell out on a CCTV system, a genuine installer will offer you the best possible service, from sales through to installation and maintenance. You should always get estimates from at least 3 different installers and ensure that you understand precisely the service and equipment they are offering.
Certain locations might require discrete cameras, while others may call for a more noticeable presence in order to act as a deterrent to potential intruders. A well positioned CCTV system has been proven by interviews with ex-burglars to provide the most effective deterrent to potential burglars.
It could be the case that you have bought an out of the box CCTV system and need assistance with the installation process. Any local Aldershot CCTV installation specialist will be able to help you out even if you've not purchased the equipment through them. Whatever size and model of system you may have purchased, they should have the expertise and knowledge to swiftly and efficiently get it installed.
STANDARDS, TRAINING, ACCREDITATION AND PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIPS
You should always look for CCTV systems that carry the BS EN 62676 (British Standard) for installation on your Aldershot house. This British Standard kitemark lays out how well a CCTV system is meant to operate and offers instructions on its installment to security companies. If you've got non standard CCTV equipment installed and it does not meet the levels offered by the installation company, or your own requirements, you might find it difficult to rectify the situation.
To make certain you are using the services of a reliable CCTV company you should always look for membership or affiliation with an accredited trade body within the field. The following are the principal UK security trade organisations:
The National Security Inspectorate - The NSI is an independent trade organisation which promotes the security sector through the acknowledgement of the best companies. As part of the certification procedure a security firm must demonstrate their ability in the design, maintenance and installation of CCTV and other security products. A company also has to supply data and records relating to; company and personal liability insurances, employee vetting and training, equipment calibration and maintenance, and also must demonstrate that its premises are appropriate for the NSI's demanding requirements. Membership is accepted as the highest standard by insurance providers, fire services and police forces in the United Kingdom and the European Union.
The Security Institute - The SI has the largest membership of professional security companies and technicians in Great Britain. With more than three thousand members, the SI guarantees its certified members will provide the highest standard of security by using best working practices and following the security Code of Conduct at all stages of installation, maintenance and planning.
Secure By Design - Secure by Design is an official police security initiative aimed at reducing crime. Its aims are to improve the security of all properties by working alongside security companies, construction firms and architects.
The British Security Industry Association (BSIA) - The BSIA (British Security Industry Association) is a trade organisation for the security industry within the British Isles.
