Internal & external surveillance

Surveillance cameras stand as watchful eyes over a university’s vast landscape.

Offering a panoramic view, these cameras play a crucial role in identifying unusual activities.

Day or night, rain or shine, they capture events in high definition, ensuring that every corner, from lecture halls to alleyways, and site perimeters are constantly monitored.

Offering a range of surveillance cameras including PTZ, thermal, bullet, dome, and turret cameras, we design and deploy systems that detect, deter, and deal with threats.

Fabulous company, very dedicated and knowledgeable staff throughout. The engineer who was managing our security upgrade across our Multi Academy Trust, Daniel Thurston, worked extremely hard. He was trustworthy, knowledgeable, polite and his willingness to support the integration and training of staff was impressive. I felt he left the job giving staff multi skills to self manage the system and any errors which may occur. Overall I have been extremely happy with the service provided.

Michael provided a first class service to me yesterday. Nothing was to much trouble for him with him explaining maters in a clear, concise manner. Most definitely a very strong asset to your company.

We are very pleased with our security system and door entry system. Dan has done a marvellous job, explained everything clearly and patiently and he was very clean and tidy. Despite the amount of work and time needed Dan did not impact on the household routine.
