You probably DON'T need more CCTV cameras. π
One of the biggest misconceptions I come across is that more cameras automatically means better security.
It doesn't.
When I look at a property, I'm interested in what each camera is actually going to achieve.
Where are the entrances and exits?
Where are the vulnerable doors and windows?
Which direction would someone approach from?
Do we need an overview β or do we need to identify a face or vehicle?
Sometimes repositioning one camera or choosing the correct lens can achieve more than installing another three.
After 30+ years working with security systems, one thing I've learned is:
Good CCTV isn't about having the most cameras. It's about having the right cameras in the right places.
πΈ Already have CCTV and aren't sure whether it's covering your property properly?
Send me a photo of your property or your current camera layout and I'll give you my initial thoughts.
