Commercial CCTV is one of the most practical investments a Cambridge business can make. Whether you run a retail unit in the city centre, a warehouse on one of the business parks, or a multi-site operation across Cambridgeshire, a well-designed camera system protects your stock, staff and premises around the clock.

The work starts with a site survey to understand your layout, blind spots and lighting conditions. We then recommend the right mix of cameras - fixed, varifocal or PTZ - along with the recorder type and storage capacity that suits your footage retention needs. All cabling is routed neatly through trunking or concealed where possible, and cameras are mounted at angles that deliver evidential-quality footage rather than just a general view. We configure remote viewing so you can check in from a phone or laptop wherever you are.

A professionally installed system does more than a DIY kit from a trade counter. Camera placement follows recognised principles for coverage overlap and avoiding glare from windows or artificial lighting - common problems that make footage useless when you actually need it. Wiring is also rated for the environment, which matters in unheated storage areas or exposed external locations.

Before we leave, we walk you through the recorder interface, show you how to export footage if the police request it, and make sure every camera is focused correctly. We can also integrate CCTV with access control or existing network infrastructure.

A commercial CCTV system for a small Cambridge business typically costs between £800 and £2,500 depending on the number of cameras, cable runs and recorder specification, with larger multi-camera installs on bigger sites priced higher.

Questions

Questions about Commercial CCTV

What should I budget for a commercial CCTV system in Cambridge?
For a small business with four to eight cameras, you should budget roughly £800 to £2,500 installed, depending on cable runs, camera type and the recorder you choose. Larger premises with more cameras, external runs or PTZ units will cost more. We can give you a fixed price once we have seen the site.
How many cameras do I need for my business premises?
It depends on the size and layout of your site, but most small retail units or offices are well covered with four to eight cameras positioned at entry points, tills, stock areas and external doors. A site survey is the best way to identify blind spots and avoid over-specifying - more cameras than you need adds cost without adding security.
Can I view my CCTV cameras remotely on my phone?
Yes. Modern IP and HD-over-coax systems support remote viewing via an app on your phone or tablet, as well as through a browser on a laptop. We configure this during installation and test it before we leave, so you can check your premises from anywhere with an internet connection.
