Prefer it straightforward? Pick a fixed-price package sized for most homes—camera mix, recorder, pro install and app set-up included. We’ll confirm coverage on a quick survey and keep everything neat.
Picture breaking up? Constant beep? Lost the app? We offer fault-finding, repairs and routine servicing: batteries, HDD checks, camera re-aiming/cleaning, firmware and networking tweaks—to get your system back to its best.
Already have CCTV but want sharper images, better night colour, longer storage or easier remote access? We can reuse good cabling, replace tired cameras/recorder, tidy the install and migrate your app settings.
We are experts at concealing unsightly cables. In most cases, we hide cables in wall cavities without the need of chasing out the wall itself.
We configure your system to as many smartphones, tablets or computers as you need giving you quick and secure access to your system.
We perform a free on site survey in order to best advise you on protecting your property.
Unlike older CCTV systems, ours are built for how people actually use them today.
Unlike large nationals, we don’t lock you into long contracts or expensive monitoring. Remote viewing is included as part of the install—recording is stored locally on your NVR (typically 14–30+ days, depending on drive size), so there’s no ongoing cloud fee needed. If you’d like extra peace of mind, we offer an optional annual service to clean lenses, re-aim cameras if layouts change, check HDD health, apply firmware updates and make sure your app access is working perfectly.
We provide expert CCTV installation in Peterborough and across the surrounding area. Our engineers regularly work in the city itself as well as nearby towns and villages.
Areas we cover include:
Peterborough, Bretton, Hampton, Werrington, Walton, The Ortons, Yaxley, Whittlesey, Stamford, Spalding, Huntingdon, March, and many surrounding villages within a 20-mile radius.
