CCTV Installation — FAQs
Wired or wireless — which is better?
We strongly recommend wired (PoE) cameras for reliability. Battery-powered cameras can miss events, lose connection, and need constant maintenance. Wired systems just work.
Can I view cameras on my phone?
Yes. We set up remote viewing on your phone and any other devices so you can check your cameras from anywhere.
Do I need to tell neighbours about CCTV?
If your cameras capture areas beyond your property boundary, there are GDPR considerations. We can advise on camera positioning to stay compliant.
