Retail CCTV Installation

Shops need clear footage at the door and till, a view of the stockroom and rear entrance, and a recorder kept safely out of sight. We plan around the layout and trading hours of your unit.

Priority positions

The entrance and till area usually matter most, since these are where incidents and disputes occur. A stockroom camera and a rear-door camera cover deliveries and staff access.

Getting usable pictures

Bright shopfront glass, signage and strong sunlight can ruin footage if cameras are not positioned and set up with them in mind. We test at the door during the survey.

Recorder and access

The recorder should sit somewhere secure, and viewing rights should be limited. We set up how you export clips if you need to share them.

Benefits and limitations

Customers must be told that CCTV is in operation. Cameras should not cover changing rooms or other private areas, and footage should be kept no longer than needed.
