Cameras
Placement planned against the approaches and the sight lines that matter, then mounted where the architecture will carry them.
Coverage drawn on the plan before anything is ordered.
Home/ Smart AV Solutions/ Security, surveillance and access
Security, surveillance and access.
Cameras, entry and alarm that report into the same app as the rest of the house, rather than three apps that do not know about each other.
The problem
The cameras are on one app, the gate is on another, and neither talks to the alarm.
Security bought piece by piece leaves you checking three apps to answer one question. Put the cameras, the entry and the alarm on the same system as the lighting and the control, and the question is answered in one place: who is at the gate, what the camera saw, and whether the house should turn its lights on. Camera coverage is planned against the building, not by camera count.
Answer the gate from the sofa.
Cameras, entry and alarm report into the same app as the light and the music, at home or away. Gate calls, camera views and alarm status appear on one screen.
Plan your project
Cameras, entry and alarm on one app.
Entry and access
Gate, door and access control wired and integrated, so entry is granted from the same place the rest of the house is controlled.
Wired during construction, with the other data and control cabling.
Alarm and recording
Alarm integration, plus recording and retention set with you, and remote viewing on the same app as the light and the music.
Retention agreed at handover rather than left at a default.
Common questions
It is recorded on a network video recorder (NVR) inside the house, and you can view it remotely through the app. How long footage is kept is set with you at handover.
Usually. An existing alarm can often be integrated rather than replaced. We survey what is there first and tell you what can be kept.
No. CITE Electric is an unlimited electrical contractor under the same ownership, so the circuits, the panel and the devices they feed are ours, and so is the programming. There is no handover between two firms and no argument about whose side a fault sits on.
A Bronze care plan comes with the system, covering seasonal startups and shutdowns, twice-yearly maintenance visits and technical support. Silver, Gold and Diamond add after hours support, more service hours, faster scheduling and network health monitoring.
