Frequently Asked Questions About CCTV Systems
How many CCTV cameras do I need for my property?
The number of cameras depends on the size, layout, and security risks of your property.
For most Newcastle homes, 3–6 cameras typically cover key areas such as:
- Front door and driveway
- Backyard or side access
- Garage
- Internal entry points
Commercial properties may require additional cameras to monitor entrances, exits, cash handling areas, storage rooms, and car parks.
A professional site assessment ensures there are no blind spots and that cameras are positioned for maximum effectiveness — not just coverage, but usable, clear footage.
Can I view my CCTV cameras on my phone?
Yes. Most modern CCTV systems offer remote access via smartphone apps or web browsers.
You can:
- View live footage
- Replay recorded video
- Receive motion alerts
- Check your property from anywhere
We configure your system securely to ensure remote access is encrypted and protected, giving you convenience without compromising security.
How long is CCTV footage stored??
Storage duration depends on:
- Hard drive size
- Number of cameras
- Video resolution
- Recording settings (continuous or motion-based)
Most residential systems store footage for 2–4 weeks. Commercial systems may store footage for 30–90 days depending on compliance requirements.
We help you select the appropriate storage capacity based on your needs and can also set up cloud backup options if required.
Are wired or wireless CCTV systems better?
Both options have advantages.
Wired systems
- More stable and reliable
- Ideal for permanent installations
- Less prone to signal interference
Wireless systems
- Faster installation
- Flexible placement
- Suitable for smaller properties
For most homes and businesses, professionally installed wired or IP-based systems provide the most reliable long-term solution. We’ll recommend the best option based on your property and budget.
Is CCTV installation legally allowed in Australia?
Yes, CCTV is legal in Australia — but it must comply with privacy laws.
Key guidelines include:
- Cameras must not record inside private areas (e.g., neighbour’s home)
- Audio recording may have stricter consent requirements
- Businesses must follow workplace surveillance laws
Using a licensed electrician ensures your CCTV system is installed safely, legally, and in line with Australian standards.
How often should a CCTV system be serviced?
We recommend servicing your CCTV system every 12 months.
Maintenance includes:
- Cleaning lenses
- Checking connections
- Testing recording equipment
- Updating firmware
- Verifying remote access functionality
Regular servicing ensures clear footage, reliable operation, and early detection of faults — so your system works when you need it most.
