How would criminals know if it is a DIY installation? Simple. The sight of poorly-installed cameras is a dead giveaway.
Opting for a professional CCTV installation, Brisbane is the smartest way to ensure that the system works to your advantage. If you’re on the fence regarding the cost of hiring a professional to install your CCTV, the reasons below might help you change your mind.
Installing CCTV is not as easy as you think it is
CCTV installation is a complex and challenging task to do when you want it to work as it should. For one thing, the right cameras should be chosen to get the best footage of everything happening around your property.
For instance, a camera set too high prevents you from seeing the face of the burglar. The hooded figure with a bulging rucksack as he leaves your home is the only image captured by a camera that is set too high.
Reading the registration number of a culprit’s car only becomes possible when your CCTV has an Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) feature. When you call in the police and they ask to see your footage. However, this request only came a few days after the crime. By this time, your DVR has already run out of memory.
This horror story could have been avoided had you opted for a professional CCTV installation.
Vulnerable to hackers
A laptop, smart phone, or tablet is the device that you can link to your CCTV systems. This allows you to keep an eye on your property when out of it. However, connecting your system to the internet creates a problem especially when it is a DIY setup.
The improper setup of your CCTV systems also makes you vulnerable to hackers. Changing the default port numbers and passwords during a professional CCTV installation makes you less likely to be hacked. The altered settings done by a professional installation also make you invisible to internet users.
Picture perfect quality
The settings of the CCTV system should be done right for you to get a clear picture day or night. Crystal clear picture quality is gained with a professional CCTV installation. CCTV systems usually feature factory settings once purchased. A motion blur is often the problem with DIY CCTV installation. Only a professional installer will be able to do a few tweaks to create a picture-perfect quality of the CCTV cameras.
No trial or error
Trying something new is often a case of trial and error. While trial and error is not a big deal with cooking, for instance, it can be a huge mistake when it comes to protecting your property. A DIY CCTV installation is a trial or error case. However, hiring professional installers in the first place leaves no room for trial or error. It is because their first-time installation will always check all the boxes. You gain peace of mind knowing that your property is not vulnerable to unwanted people.
