CCTV Camera Installations

If you thinking about getting CCTV for your home or business in the Bolton, Manchester or Stockport area then please let us help you decide. 
 
From the start, CCTV has more commonly been associated with shops, pubs, car parks and other public places.  But now thanks to advances in CCTV technology and easier installation technique the prices have dropped dramatically over the last few years, and like the introductions of DIY gadgets like ring this has increased awareness so now more than ever before its become accessible to normal households. This has made it an ever increasingly popular choice for security-conscious families and homeowners alike.  But that's not the end of it, there are so many cameras to choose from, analogue AHD, Turbo HD, POC ( Power Over Coax) and also IP!  Then you have 2mp, 4mp, 5mp, 8mp and even 12mp? put these options together and then do you go colour nighttime images with color hunter cameras? (that how they spell it), what about acu-sense colorvue?  With every answer there becomes more questions.

Well here at Entrytech we try to keep it simple, we use a select few types of CCTV systems so we can fully know it inside and out, we feel that this give you our customers a better experience, trouble-free. 
 
Now CCTV is one very good line of defence against burglars and criminals as it can be a very good visual deterrent, and we find it works best when combined with other security devices, such as burglar alarms and security lights etc... which we also advise and install (ALARMS & LIGHTING) for a more robust system.
 
What to do next?

Fill in our contact form and we will arrange to come and see you and do a walk around and see where we think it's best to place your cameras, and because there are so many to choose from in style like there has been stated above you also have different shapes, bullets, turrets, and dome cameras that use cat5 or cat6 type cables but offer far better options of analytics, megapixel range, image quality in day and night modes, the choice is almost endless but that's what we are here for.  ENQUIRE HERE
 

 

Wireless CCTV, unless battery-powered, like the one below (really only for caravans or a building site) will always require 12v power so it's not truly wireless, with a wired system this carries the video and power down the same cable without the issues of wifi signal loss.  With a traditional wired system, you can place the cameras wherever you wish, then the cable is run back to a central location where the DVR or NVR will be located, this cable carries the video data and also the power.  If you are thinking of installing a wireless CCTV that isn't truly wireless and can suffer from interference problems then it is a false economy, if you go hard wired from the start then it may cost a bit more in the beginning but it will last long into the future.

 

Hikvision is the world's largest supplier of CCTV and security equipment and we have been using their equipment for quite a few years but we also use another brand called Uniview for our IP systems.

The CCTV system is made up of a recorder that is basically a small computer with a hard drive, and the cameras.  The cameras are connected to the recorder in a star wired pattern in either coax cable (analogue) or in cat5/6 cable (digital IP)

​

To install CCTV the cameras are recommended to be lower if you need to see a face view or higher if you're trying to cover a large area, it is recommended to place the recorder out of easy reach, in a lockbox or upstairs of the ground floor or even in the loft.

•home CCTV 

​

CCTV for home or a business we can take care of both, there is no real difference apart from in a business if more cost-effective to use IP cameras as in a lot of cases the infrastructure is already installed.

The cost of CCTV varies depending on how many cameras and the type of cameras you choose but IP are more expensive than analogue.
