Protect your business with a comprehensive, reliable and intuitive surveillance solution with powerful and intelligent video monitoring, management, and analysis tools.
- Strategic design and implementation: A security plan is only as strong as its weakest point. Our experts will strategically design your system to cover high-risk zones while eliminating vulnerabilities.
- Identifying and eliminating blind spots: We'll conduct a full property walk-through to map out your site's unique vulnerabilities. By analyzing the angles of coverage, we can eliminate common blind spots, such as corners, doorways, and areas behind landscaping, using overlapping camera views and specialized lenses.
- Choosing the best camera locations: We position cameras to maximize coverage and deterrence. Strategic placement covers all entry and exit points, high-traffic areas, and vulnerable zones like secluded side alleys and parking lots.
- Optimizing for lighting conditions: Proper lighting is crucial for clear footage, especially at night. We integrate motion-activated lighting or choose cameras with high-quality night vision (infrared or low-light) to ensure image clarity in all conditions. We also position cameras to avoid issues like glare or washed-out video from backlighting.
- Designing a detailed architectural map: Using your existing floor plans, we create a custom security map that visually represents the optimal placement for each camera. This allows you to see the exact field of view and ensures there are no missed areas before installation begins.
- Professional cabling and system implementation: A security system is only as reliable as its infrastructure. We ensure a solid foundation that supports peak performance and future scalability.
- Analyzed and replace existing wiring: Our technicians analyze your current infrastructure to see if it can support modern, high-resolution cameras. For older coaxial systems, we will install new, future-proof Ethernet CAT6 or CAT6A cables to handle higher data transfer speeds.
- Ensuring proper terminations: Sloppy connections cause signal loss and performance issues. Our professionals use high-quality termination practices and test every connection to guarantee a stable, clear video feed.
- Testing and analysis: After installation, we perform comprehensive testing to verify full system functionality. We check video feeds for clarity, confirm motion detection is active in the correct zones, and ensure remote access is working correctly. We adjust settings and camera angles as needed to confirm optimal coverage.
- Selecting the right Network Video Recorder (NVR) type:
- Calculating your storage requirements: We determine your exact storage needs by considering key variables like:
- Resolution: Higher resolution footage requires more space.
- Retention policy: We calculate the storage needed to hold footage for your desired number of days, whether it's 30, 90, or more, based on legal or business requirements.
- Recording mode: We can configure your system for continuous 24/7 recording or motion-triggered recording, which significantly reduces storage needs.
- Network Video Recorders:
- 1-Bay NVRs: A cost-effective solution for small businesses needing a simple setup. Accommodating a single surveillance hard drive, this unit offers reliable performance for a handful of cameras.
- 4-Bay NVRs: Designed for growing businesses, these NVRs allow for significantly more storage capacity and can support more cameras. The multi-bay design enables scalable storage expansion and RAID configurations for data redundancy.
- 7-Bay NVRs: Provides extensive storage and enhanced performance for mid-to-large deployments with a higher number of cameras and more intensive recording needs.
- 16-Bay NVRs: Offers the ultimate in capacity and reliability for the most demanding enterprise applications. Ideal for large camera networks requiring long-term video retention and robust data protection.
- Selecting the right camera type:
- Dome cameras: Vandal-resistant and discreet, these are ideal for indoor and outdoor monitoring of common areas.
- Bullet cameras: Highly visible, these act as a strong deterrent for outdoor perimeters and long-range viewing.
- Turret cameras: Also called eyeball cameras, these feature a ball-and-socket design that allows for easy manual adjustment of the viewing angle, similar to bullet cameras.
- PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) cameras: Best for monitoring large, open spaces, allowing operators to remotely adjust the view and zoom in on details.
- High-resolution vs. standard: For critical areas where facial recognition or license plate capture is needed, 4K cameras provide maximum detail. For general monitoring, 1080p offers a cost-effective solution.
- Maintenance support: Neglecting your surveillance system can lead to serious consequences, such as missed footage, system downtime, and expensive emergency repairs. Our proactive maintenance services help you avoid these issues with a focus on prevention over reaction.
- Logs review: We review NVR system logs to detect anomalies, such as recording errors, hard drive warnings, or unexpected reboots.
- Storage review: We review your NVR's storage capacity to ensure you always have enough space for your video archives. We provide reports on storage usage and can assist with expanding capacity as your needs grow.
- Performance check: Our team verifies that all cameras are online, and all recording and playback functions are working correctly.
- Firmware updates: We remotely install the latest firmware updates for your cameras and NVR, patching vulnerabilities and improving performance.
- Software updates: We ensure your system's management software is up-to-date, guaranteeing compatibility with new features and security standards.
- Cleaning lenses: We perform professional cleaning of camera lenses to remove dirt, dust, grime, and cobwebs. This prevents blurry footage and maintains image clarity, especially for outdoor and low-light cameras.
- Hardware inspection: Our technicians inspect all cabling, connections, power supplies, and camera mounts for signs of wear, damage, or corrosion.
- Positioning and focus: We verify that each camera's field of view and focus are correctly set, making adjustments as needed.
