Building the installation

The supply price applies to the named equipment. Confirm the lens, hardware revision and included accessories where relevant. Cables, storage media, mounting boxes, subscriptions and labour should appear separately on the order unless expressly included. This keeps comparisons between equipment-only and installed-system quotations meaningful.

Compare compatible items in the CCTV camera and recording equipment range when preparing the system schedule. Plan any required monitoring notices alongside the site safety signs and labels, with placement agreed for the intended premises.

Setup and maintenance

Set the correct time and recording schedule, then test playback and export before handover. Check drive health and storage alerts periodically. Keep the unit ventilated and protect it from dust, moisture and unauthorised access. Retention depends on the actual camera streams and recording settings.

Consult the manufacturer product and support information for the exact delivered model. Keep commissioning details available for future changes and limit system access to authorised users. Browse the full safety equipment range when coordinating the remaining building and workplace equipment.
