CCTV

With the cost of CCTV systems reducing quite dramatically over recent years, a camera system for the home and small business has now become a viable security add-on for the majority of people.

Current estimates suggest that as many as 5% of households now employ some form of CCTV, be it a simple single camera that views callers at the entrance door or a full-blown system which can monitor and record anything that takes place within the curtilage of the dwelling. Business ownership of CCTV is, of course, considerably higher.

Domestic uses include

Deterring people from committing offences both inside and outside the home

Gathering evidence of criminal activity, should crime occur 

Providing an image of a caller at the door before it is answered 

Watching over vehicles parked to the front or side of the home
