Installing CCTV cameras and recording footage of your premises or site is a step in the right direction when it comes to securing your home, business or street. When combined with an alarm system, CCTV systems provide better protection still. Video footage is recorded, alarms ring, occupants and neighbours are informed and intruders are alerted to the presence of a security system.
The Problem with Standalone Cameras and Alarms
Unfortunately, ringing alarms are frequently ignored and whilst video footage can help convict the perpetrators, often, by the time police or fire brigade arrive the damage has been done or the goods have been stolen.
The Solution: Monitor your CCTV Cameras 24/7
Your system can easily be connected to a 24/7 Remote Video Response Centre (RVRC). Fully functional 360 pan/tilt/zoom cameras fitted by BWS Standfast will alert the team of highly trained operators to activity in a specific camera view, who can track, record and inform the intruders, by loudspeaker, that they are being watched and recorded and that the police are on the way.
The Effect
This usually stops theft, arson or vandalism before it occurs.
The Alternative
You could have a team of onsite security guards, simultaneously watching all of the locations covered by your CCTV cameras.
