Security Cameras
Securing the perimeter of your home
When it comes to protecting your property, you need reliable security without the mess, stress, and disruption of a construction project.
That is why we focus on 100% wire-free battery or solar-powered security cameras from industry-leading brands like TP-Link (Tapo) and Arlo.
No drilling through your walls, no running cables through chases chiselled out of your plasterwork, and no electrical wiring to the fuse box required.
The cameras just screw discretely into the mortar beds between the bricks of your house.
The batteries can be easily maintained at full charge by small solar panels (see image), or by removing and replacing them with fully-charged batteries from a charger in your home.
Peace of mind for you and your loved ones
For many homeowners—especially the elderly or those living alone—home security can feel like an overwhelmingly complicated project that you just don't know how to get started.
Traditional systems can be complicated to install, but wireless camera systems are simple to install - just a drill, a ladder, some screws, rawl plugs, and the base station that connects everything together in your house are all that is required.
The apps are designed to be very user-friendly, showing all of your camera views on a dashboard as soon as the app is opened, and a simple tap to zoom in full-screen.
No more late night panics
A strange sound outside your house in the middle of the night can cause immediate worry for anyone, whether you're living in a family or on your own.
Instead of risking a trip outside with a torch and a rolling pin, your smart security camera system means you don't even need to leave the comfort of your bed.
Just open your smart security camera mobile app and review the live feeds, or check the recent motion-triggered footage see exactly what happened.
Of course, the vast majority of things that go bump in the night are just the clumsy activities of our nocturnal wildlife, or poorly placed dustbin lids, but having an instant 360° view at every point around your property gives you a level of reassurance that you can't get any other way.
Smart AI threat recognition
Modern security cameras are highly intelligent. Complex computer algorithms process events captured by the camera as they happen and can distinguish between a hedgehog going for an evening wander through your side alley, a routine afternoon package delivery, or a person loitering near your property.
These modern capabilities mean that it is no longer left for you to determine what is happening in and around your property, ensuring alerts only happen when they truly matter.
Deter burglars automatically
If a camera detects unusual motion late at night, it can be set to automatically trigger a built-in alarm and illuminate indoor and outdoor lights to scare off potential intruders.
This can also be triggered manually from a phone with a single tap if you are away from home. Speakers on many smart security camera systems means you can push-to-talk and inform any potential intruders that the police have been called.
Monitor from anywhere
Whether popping down to the shops, visiting family across the country, or relaxing on holiday, the home can be checked on anytime, from anywhere in the world.
This level of convenience and peace of mind means you can get on with enjoying and living your life.
Battery longevity
Because the cameras we install are 100% wireless, they run on high-capacity rechargeable batteries. Exactly how long a charge lasts depends entirely on how much activity the camera sees.
If you have a camera at the front of your house pointing at a busy street, your camera will be triggered to record and consume more power than if your battery is pointing at a narrow alley at the side of your house with only occasional wildlife passing through a few times a week.
Here is a table to give you an idea of how long you can expect a smart security camera to last on a single battery charge:
| Traffic Level | Daily Triggers | Estimated Battery Life |
|---|---|---|
| Low Traffic (e.g., a quiet back garden or side path) | 5–10 events per day | Up to 6 to 12 months |
| Medium Traffic (e.g., a typical driveway or front door) | 10–20 events per day | Around 3 to 6 months |
| High Traffic (e.g., a busy main street or shared walkway) | 20+ events per day | Around 1 to 2 months |
No battery hassles
When the batteries eventually need charging, there is no need to worry.
As part of the personalized aftercare service, battery swaps and charging are handled completely free of charge, keeping the home continuously protected without anyone ever having to climb a ladder.
Complete 360-degree coverage
With the right layout, cameras can be positioned to give your home complete 360-degree coverage, leaving no blind spots and no areas to worry about.
The entire setup is handled for you, from mounting the cameras in the perfect positions, connecting them to the base station and connecting the base station to your internet router.
We will also set up the smart security camera app on your phone or tablet and walk you through how to use it.
