You’ve experienced security incidents
Have you recently experienced security incidents within your neighbourhood, or even experienced a burglary at your home? If so, we understand how distressing this can be. However, by simply having a CCTV system installed at your premises, this significantly reduced the risk of your home being targeted.
Furthermore, if your neighbourhood is a ”crime watch” zone or has had repeated burglaries, we highly recommend speaking with us about your CCTV system option to enhance security measures.
Deterring potential intruders is important to you
By having high-quality CCTV systems installed at your premises and visually on show, this helps to deter potential intruders and sends a clear message that your home is protected and monitored.
This is similar to the above point, but even more than that, this is backed up by recent studies that show burglars are 65% less likely to target a home with a CCTV system installed. There are a number of systems to select from which are clearly visible including wireless, IP CCTV, and HD CCTV systems.
You want to gather evidence in case of incidents
In the unfortunate event of a security breach or criminal activity on your property, having video evidence captured by a CCTV system can be invaluable for law enforcement investigations and insurance claims.
CCTV footage can provide crucial evidence to identify suspects, document the sequence of events, and support your case in legal proceedings.

Remote monitoring isn’t currently possible
Is Remote monitoring currently available to you? If not, this is another clear sign that you require home CCTV installation or upgrades. When you are away from your home, either on holiday or for work commitments, it’s essential that you still have the capability to view live video feeds of your property from anywhere with internet connections.
Thanks to advanced technology, you can now view live movements from devices such as your mobile, computer, or laptop.
You have valuable assets
If you own a home, it’s highly likely that you own valuable and / or sentimental assets. Examples of valuable assets may include: expensive vehicles, artwork, electronics, and much more. Fortunately, CCTV systems are an excellent addition to your home’s security plan to protect those important and valuable assets.
By strategically placing cameras around your property, you can monitor key areas and ensure that your valuables are secure at all times.
Peace of mind and overall safety
As a homeowner, we’re going to make an assumption about you. The peace of mind and overall safety of your family is a priority. A home CCTV system, professionally installed by Lookout Fire & Security Solutions, can provide invaluable peace of mind knowing that your home and loved ones are safe and secure.
