“CCTV security systems are considered to be the most effective method of reducing crime.” (Source: British Chambers of Commerce Business Crime Survey)
Metroline Security have extensive experience in the design and installation of digital CCTV systems for security, surveillance and industrial applications. With a wealth of experience in the field of CCTV engineering, we are able to provide solutions to any situation.
CCTV systems can be configured to send instant alerts when motion is detected through a camera, therefore ensuring that the risk of crime against people, theft and vandalism are substantially reduced. If you are unfortunate to suffer from an incident, CCTV recordings can provide invaluable evidence which can dramatically improve the likelihood of conviction.
We provide CCTV solutions to fit all applications both internally and externally from the small corner shop, to the office block, a large industrial site or public space. Furthermore, our CCTV systems can be integrated into others systems including security lighting, access control, intruder alarms or fire alarms.
Gone are the days of changing tapes and suffering from blurred or inadequate images. With the latest digital video recorders and cameras, CCTV footage is recorded onto DVR’s hard disks and can be viewed from any networked or internet-enabled computer, or even smartphones!
With the ever-improving performance of cameras and CCTV equipment in general, you can be assured an appropriately planned CCTV system will give your premises the cover it requires and, should you be unfortunate enough to suffer from a break-in, the images captured will be invaluable in identifying those responsible.
Over the past few years an increasing trend has been for IP-based CCTV networks. With a hybrid DVR, such as Dedicated Micros SD Advanced units, a single DVR can be used for standard and IP-based cameras.
Once the system is configured, the CCTV network can be easily and cost-effectively expanded upon by adding IP cameras through standard CAT5 network points. To take it one stage further, these cameras can even be powered through the same point using power over ethernet (PoE).
When a well-planned and professionally-installed CCTV system is implemented, with the addition of CCTV monitoring organisations can save significant sums of money as opposed to employing security guards.
We regularly upgrade CCTV systems, add loudspeakers and manage the external monitoring on a 24/7 basis. If a site does end up with an unwanted visitor, the monitoring station pick this up and warn them over the loudspeakers that the Police will be called should they not vacant the site immediately. Should the intruder not heed the advice them the authorities can be called, with the intruder followed by the CCTV cameras to track their activity and precise location.
