SSAIB and NSI are the UK's leading security industry accreditation bodies. Accredited installers are regularly inspected and held to high standards. Accreditation is often required for insurance-approved alarm installations.
A good installer will survey your property and recommend optimal camera positions based on vulnerability points, not just install cameras where it is easiest to run cables. The goal is maximum coverage of entry points and vulnerable areas.
Modern CCTV should be accessible on your phone from anywhere. Ask about the app, whether cloud storage is available, and what the ongoing costs are for any subscription services required for remote access.
If your cameras capture images of public spaces (pavements, neighbours' gardens), you have legal obligations under GDPR. A professional installer will advise on camera angles and signage requirements to keep you compliant.
