CCTV

1. The position of devices in this specification is described by an external observer looking towards the front elevation.

2. Where it is identified that images from cameras overlook private properties, and that there may be privacy issues, then images from the relevant cameras will be digitally ‘masked’ to exclude these areas.

3. The quality of images will be entirely dependant upon the standard of camera, image management and transmission methods used. Lower light levels at the time of viewing/recording and the distance the object is from the camera’s point of focus will also reduce the level of definition. Where the user has identified a specific purpose for the images, then this should be made clear to the surveyor who will tailor the design to meet this need.

4. The above specification has been prepared taking into account all information available to the Surveyor and is considered to be that best suited to this application within the limitations of cost. Should the customer consider that the degree of protection is in excess of requirements or, alternatively, that greater coverage is required the company’s Surveyor will be pleased to discuss the matter further.

5. Our engineers are experienced in lifting and refitting carpets where it is necessary to route cables. No extra charge is made for this service since a professional standard for this particular work cannot be guaranteed. Customers may, at their own additional expense, employ a professional carpet fitter to work in conjunction with our engineers to lift and refit the necessary carpets.

6. Unless previously agreed, a final invoice will be presented during the course of the work. It will be necessary to ensure that settlement is made available as or before the system is handed over.

7. The specified area of coverage provided by all cameras is to be demonstrated by the installer to the customer at the time of commissioning of the system, and subsequently, following any replacement of the cameras as a result of necessary service work.

8. The customer should note that alterations to the physical structure, building services, furniture or any stock piling at the protected location may adversely affect the area of coverage provided, and in that event the customer should liaise with the Company about a re-evaluation of the security protection.

9. It is the customer’s responsibility to check the coverage afforded by all cameras both live and recorded by means of regular checks between the service visits undertaken by the Company.
