SAFE HOMESResidential CCTV Installation
A home CCTV system should cover the places that matter: entrances, driveway, side access and the areas you cannot see from inside. We plan camera positions before choosing equipment.
Get the scope right before work starts.
Good home coverage is about positions and lighting, not the number of cameras. We walk the property with you, identify approach routes and blind spots, and recommend a layout that records usable footage rather than wide, distant images.
Systems can be set up for viewing on your phone, so you can check the property when you are away. Remote access depends on a working internet connection and correct router settings, which we configure and test at handover.
- Entrance, driveway and gate coverage, including night-time lighting
- Camera height and angle to avoid glare and tampering
- Cable routes and mounting surfaces for a neat, durable install
- Recorder placement, ventilation and storage capacity
- Phone viewing setup and a walkthrough of the app
Include these details
- Type of home and whether it has a wall, gate or garage
- Areas you most want covered
- Number of cameras you have in mind, if any
- Whether you have internet and where the router is
- Suburb and a few photos of the outside of the property
How many cameras does a house need?
It depends on the property layout and risk areas. A 4-camera system covers many homes well, but the right number is decided on site.
Can I view the cameras on my phone?
Yes, compatible systems can be viewed remotely through an app, using your internet connection.
How much does home CCTV cost?
A 4-camera kit with installation and mobile viewing quoted after a site assessment. Your final quote depends on the property, cabling and equipment.
