Someone actually watching, not just recording
Most CCTV systems record evidence of something that has already happened. Monitored CCTV puts a trained operator behind the cameras in real time, so intrusions are interrupted rather than reviewed the next morning.
Usually not. Most systems from the last several years can be monitored remotely. We check yours during the survey and tell you plainly either way.
That is your choice. Out-of-hours only is the most common — covering the period when the site is empty. Full 24/7 is available where the risk justifies it.
The operator verifies and stands it down. No call-out, no charge, no disturbing you at 2am. Filtering false alarms is one of the main benefits of monitoring.
Sometimes, particularly with remote monitoring on higher-risk premises. Ask your broker specifically about monitored CCTV — the answer varies a great deal by insurer.
Tell us about your site and we'll come back within one working day with a straight answer on what you need and what it costs. No obligation, and no pressure if the answer is that you need less than you thought.
