The most significant difference between a consumer CCTV kit and a professionally installed system in Edinburgh is not the camera resolution — it is the infrastructure. Consumer cameras use Wi-Fi connections that are prone to disconnection, battery power that requires regular maintenance, and motion detection algorithms that trigger on every passing vehicle or blowing leaf. Our hardwired PoE systems across Leith and Musselburgh and Lothian use dedicated Cat6 cable delivering continuous power and uncompressed video to each camera position, with AI-based human and vehicle detection that distinguishes between people entering your property and normal background movement.
For Edinburgh commercial properties, our engineers design systems to BS EN 62676 standards, providing the installation documentation and camera coverage schematics required for insurance compliance and transport licence renewal. Remote viewing is configured via the Hik-Connect or IVMS-4500 app with encrypted connection and is demonstrated working on your device before we leave site.
Our engineers use local routes like the A720 to easily navigate across the entire Edinburgh sector. Whether you need a tidy camera install in central residential hubs or a multi-camera system across the surrounding EH1, EH2, EH3 and EH4 borders, our mobile service vehicles carry cameras, cabling and test monitors to get your property covered in one visit.
