CCTV Surveillance Systems

Integrity

The wireless aspect from camera to base-station can suffer from ‘chatter’ and can be blocked by metal in structures and thick walls. KZN Home Automation’s advanced CCTV systems and networking capabilities ensure this will not happen. Any IP-enabled device is open to hacking whether it is wired or wireless. KZN Home Automation’s CCTV installation services always include the latest in encryption protection.

Image quality

Our CCTV installers recommend the installation of high-resolution cameras (with up to 30 megapixel CCDs using CMOS chipsets) based on experience. The efficiency of a camera is judged by the size and type of chip it uses. CCTV security cameras with smaller chips tend to be able to pick up less light, and therefore produce lower quality images.

Extending the life of legacy systems

KZN Home Automation recognizes that it is not always possible to fund an entire replacement of CCTV hardware and infrastructure. We are able to advise on the latest encoding software that will allow the upgrading of analogue camera systems and the migration to Internet transmission. In conjunction with changing recording devices, KZN Home Automation can help enhance the quality of your existing CCTV system, allowing it to be overhauled in a controlled timescale.

Alarm Receiving Center / Monitoring Center
Improve Alarm Accuracy and Search Efficiency

Security monitoring is never an easy task, especially when you’re
responsible for watching over multiple locations at the same time.

For Burglar Alarm Service
Traditional sensor-based or VCA-based burglar alarm services may be distracted with alarms triggered by insignificant objects, for example, a cat, a dog, or a beam of light. With an advanced algorithm, AcuSense devices can easily distinguish human and vehicle targets among other objects, and sends an alarm when and only when such intrusion events occur. Other events will also be stored, but will not be flagged for attention.

For Playback and Video Search
Searching for a specific clip from an ocean of footage is time-consuming. With AcuSense devices, clips or files that are already classified as people or vehicles become much easier to locate after an event.

Residences
Intrusion Detection and Deterrence for Home Security

Whether you choose to keep an eye on the house yourself or hire a professional
service provider to look after your home, there’re two functions you will surely want to have:

Prompt Notification via Smartphone
Whether events will be taken care of by you or someone else, it’s also good to have the first-hand information. You’ll get a notification on the App or via SMS when the alarm is triggered. Then check out the live video from your phone.

Light and Sound Intruder Deterrence
Knowing what the suspect looks like is important, especially for providing evidence to police. However, property losses have already occurred at that time. It would be even better if there were means that can provide on-site deterrence and prevent any loss at all. Now you can!

AcuSense Network Camera can be set to react to intrusion events with a flashing light and customizable siren, alerting any would-be intruder that they are being monitored and have already been spotted.

CCTV Integration security solutions for your business.

CCTV camera installations have a variety of uses. In the field of Internal and External Access Control it can be deployed so that if a door is unlocked, a camera will be activated in that location. If the camera is already active, it can be set to run at a higher frame rate and quality of resolution. Both working room lights and security lighting can be turned on.

Should there be a perceived emergency situation, a CCTV camera installation can be put to good use to verify what is happening and advise of the extent of an actual fire or intrusion for example.

When positioned at the perimeter of a site, commercial CCTV systems can monitor walls and fences and other intruder hotspots. One of the best ways to get a return on investment is to use CCTV to grant entry via Pedestrian Gates or via Vehicular Gates, Barrier and Bollards. It can be linked to all Access Control Mechanisms such as card readers and can also incorporate Facial Recognition to provide automatic entry or an additional layer of verification.

How to Choose the Ideal CCTV Camera Type.

Ready to call a security company to handle your CCTV installation process? While CCTV installation experts can help you with choosing the ideal type of CCTV cameras, it doesn’t hurt to be familiar with some of the basic options before you make the call.

The list below will provide you some insight into the functions CCTV cameras can handle and the options we can use to build your customised system. Depending on your budget and your needs, you can opt for one, two, or more types of security cameras. For instance, you don’t have to pay extra to have HD cameras in areas where you don’t need them.
Let’s take a look at the surveillance cameras and systems that can offer your peace of mind and keep your premises safe from intruders. Take a look at the available CCTV Security systems.

The most popular types of CCTV monitoring cameras are:

Dome CCTV

They get their name from their dome-shaped casing around the camera. Their unobtrusive design makes them super easy to fit for any outdoor or indoor use. The dome makes it hard for intruders to tamper with the camera, so you’ll enjoy a future-proof security system.

Dome CCTV cameras are ideal for restaurants, hotels, casinos, and others because they have 360-degree angles and can be easily added to any monitoring system.

C-Mount CCTV

Want to monitor varying distances? Then C-mount CCTV cameras are a great choice, thanks to their detachable lenses that can be switched around.

These cameras are very popular in CCTV installations in the logistics, manufacturing or the utilities industry because they can monitor stretches or road and wide premises. This is also a great technology for extreme weather conditions.

High Definition (HD) CCTV

Want the best quality in your images? Then we recommend you add HD cameras to your CCTV system. They have resolutions ranging from 720p to 4K.

High-definition cameras are available in a lot of dome and bullet models. They are ideal for criminal identification.

Infrared/Night Vision CCTV

Want to install CCTV cameras that are useful 24/7? The night vision cameras are what you need. If you worry about night-time security, these cameras are the ideal solution.

While the imagery may not be as clear as that obtained by HD cameras, night vision cameras are an excellent deterrent in industries like manufacturing.

Day/Night CCTV

Need a CCTV system that doesn’t compromise quality depending on the time of day? Day/night CCTV cameras are designed to ensure your security 24/7. Typically, they record in both colour and black and white and the quality of the image when the lighting is ideal is very good.

Day/night cameras are typically used when you want to install CCTV in outdoor areas, where the light is variable.

PTZ Pan Tilt & Zoom Cameras

Do you have a large security team that needs to closely monitor certain areas? Then PTZ cameras are the best choice, since they offer the possibility to zoom in and out to analyse certain incidents in detail.

Not only does the optical zoom give you the possibility to focus on certain areas, but the pan/tilt function provides a 360-degree view angle. This way, your security service can always be on top of every situation, even developing ones, as they have

the opportunity to react quickly.

Network/IP CCTV

Go mobile with your monitoring by using network/IP cameras. Their feed can be accessed online, from anywhere in the world, which makes them ideal for offices where management travels a lot.

The feed is stored on NVR (Network Video Recorders) – not to be confused with DVR(Digital video recorder), which is used for analog cameras for later access. Your archive footage can always be accessed via NVR for later use. Plus, the installation process is very easy, since there are no computer stations or co-axial cables required.
