Can I install CCTV myself instead of using a CCTV Installer in Medway?
Yes. However, whilst CCTV isn’t notifiable work under Part P of the Building Regulations and you can install this yourself, professional CCTV installation comes with experience which offers better results that maximises coverage and boosts reliability. A professionally installed CCTV system rather than a self-install camera acts as a much better crime deterrent.

What type of CCTV should I install?
In this modern, technologically advanced world, CCTV has moved with the times and now comes with so many more options of types of recording equipment you can choose. If you like a simple system, closest in comparison to an old school CCTV system then Analogue CCTV is the best for you - it simply connects to a DVR and you’re off. The slightly more modern option is IP CCTV, this works by capturing digital footage, compressing it, then transmitting this as data over to your Wi-Fi. If you’d prefer something wireless and neat, wireless CCTV is an option as it connects to your Wi-Fi, this can also be integrated into a Smart CCTV system where you can access the CCTV from your phone and the footage is stored to your cloud.
Another thing to consider is the quality of the image and the night vision. We are so lucky to live in a time where good quality security systems are so readily available and actually a common practice. The usual camera quality you’d see on the market are 720p (basic clarity), 1080p (high definition) or 4K (ultra high quality definition) - I would certainly recommend 4K as this way you’re giving yourself the best chances at identifying an individual should an issue occur - it would be so frustrating for you to catch someone in the middle of committing an offence without being able to identify their face due to it being too pixelated.
