CCTV systems Durban criminals can't wait out

A camera system that dies the moment load-shedding hits is theatre, not security. Every CCTV system we install in Durban includes battery backup sized to ride through a full outage slot, remote phone viewing with sensible motion alerts, and night-capable cameras positioned after an actual walk-around of your property — driveways, side passages and yard gates first, not just the front door.

We install for homes, complexes, shops and warehouses from Westville to Durban North, and we're straight with you about numbers: four well-placed cameras almost always beat eight badly-placed ones. Existing system gone blind or offline? We repair and upgrade those too.

We regularly work around Westville, Pinetown, Durban North, Glenwood and surrounding business parks — if you can see those, you are well inside our fast-response zone.

What we do — and how we do it properly

A camera system is only as good as its weakest link: one badly-placed camera, one cable run that fails in the rain, or a recorder that dies the moment load-shedding hits, and the whole system is decorative. We design CCTV around how your property is actually used — entrances, driveways, blind corners and the approaches people actually take.

Every system we install includes remote phone viewing set up properly (secure P2P, not risky port-forwarding), motion zones tuned so you are not woken by every passing cat, and footage retention sized to your needs.

Load-shedding is the make-or-break question in South Africa: we size UPS or battery backup for your recorder, cameras and router so your security does not go down exactly when the streetlights do.

CCTV Installation in Durban — FAQs

How many cameras do I actually need?

Most homes in the Durban area are well covered by 4 cameras: front entrance, driveway, back/side access and one interior or yard view. Bigger properties and businesses typically run 8+. We walk the property with you and recommend coverage, not camera count for its own sake.

Will I be able to watch the cameras on my phone?

Yes — remote viewing is standard on every system we install. We set the app up on your phones before we leave and show you live view, playback and motion alerts.

What happens during load-shedding?

With the backup option, your recorder, cameras and router keep running on battery/UPS power. We size the backup to your stage-6 reality, not a brochure number.

Analog or IP cameras — which should I choose?

Modern HD analog is excellent value for typical homes; IP gives higher resolutions and easier expansion for larger properties and business sites. We quote both where it is a close call and explain the trade-offs in plain language.

How long is footage kept?

It depends on the hard drive size and camera resolution — typically 2–4 weeks on standard setups. Tell us what retention you need and we will spec the drive for it.
