  1. I am looking to upgrade my 4 camera system to 6 (at the moment, will possibly be eight next year) can anyone make recommendations on make and models to consider please? I will be fitting it myself, it needs to be viewable over Internet in addition to on our existing HDTV, which I can currently achieve, ideally have iPhone software/ app availability. I am not sure of the make of my current CCTV DVR, apart from it being unbranded and I would prefer something with some support and able to purchase in the UK ;)

    Many thanks

  2. + 1 with Rob!

     

    SDI is generally more robust and although costs are getting more and more competitive we see more and more installers adopting HD-SDI without any queries. 

     

    There's so much out there though, HD-TVI, CVI, AHD the lot, it's just getting harder for installers to make a solid choice.

  3. I looked at those a while back. What are they like to use onsite tho? The specs didn't seem that great I thought the wouldnt be up to the job

    They are very good mate, the low clock speed on the processor is off putting but it takes on most of the tasks our computer does but it's really portable, weighs the same as an ipad air and has 32gb inluded (upgradable to a lot more via micro sd)

  4. We have been trading since about 2012. But incorporated in 2013 as a limited company as things started expanding and growing very quickly and we thought it made sense. We have consultants and advisors onboard to ensure everything runs smoothly, this is all of protocol especially when working with certain manufacturers such as Samsung. 


    How long have you been trading?

  5. So no cash up front, goods on account?

     

    Unfortunately we don't do accounts - we did this a few months back and this lasted 1 month when we realised a lot of customers have different priorities. 

     

    We always tell our customers about the guarantees we have and if customers still need accounts/trade credit, then we will refer them to other companies. We don't really need to sell as the equipment sells it self, we've built our company with a strong philosophy and Having many friends in the security sector means I know exactly how everything works. Think of it as distributors for installers, designed by installers - without the trade credit haha.

    What we do offer is free next day delivery, Advanced replacement warranties and many other trade goodies which allows for making our installers lives a lot easier. 

  6. Just to answer your question regarding inventory and storage. We operate from Home along with a small office in Rickmansworth with a lot of our stock stored locally, we offer Free Next Day Delivery, Free Same Day delivery for our local guys. but also have secured contracts with BA and are using their distribution centre to be able to serve for our clients throughout Europe, so to answer your question - No this is not being stored in my 3 Bed Semi pahah :)

     

    We have a large scale network going on thanks to our strong partners and suppliers.

  7. Yeah that's the guy, I checked him out on linkedin too earlier.. He's only about 20 and obviously trying to make a mark for himself... he could be totally OK but I can't risk forking out 2k for materials to either get knocked or get poor quality products.  I might pay a bit more elsewhere but I can vouch for them.

     

    I'm hoping at least somebody in here has dealt with them!

     

    Hello Guys! That's me - Haha. 

     

    Yes I am 20 Years old. But don't let that fool you. We have guys that are double the age that work for me. I have a strong passion for CCTV which is something a lot of the guys on this forum know. 

     

    Thank you for the Kind words steven_w. It's hard being a director at 20 Years old as funnily enough we have trade guys that look's at me pondering. But they've tried our equipment with some calling our team up for advice and great no nonsense equipment.  We have plenty of friends in this market and we offer 2 Years Warranty on our equipment along with 30 Days money back guarantee. We always strongly insist that we supply goods to Trade but not so much DIY. DIY customers get a service where we put them in touch with our trade installers - this way they get a kickback. 

     

    Check out our corporate site, www.acurasystems.co.uk They are some of our retail clients. We won't list everyone as it can be sensitive especially when competitors are prying. We are open to that.

     

    Give me a call anytime, Ill be happy to have a chat even if you don't need anything :)

     

    We will also be sure to supply you with trade references so that we can provide you with assurance. P.s I'm the only young one here, But feel free to pick my brains over a telephone call! You'll be surprised!

     

    Have a good weekend.

  8. I

    Conduit?

    If done right it looks ok.

    Sparks get away with running it. Make sure your spec is right and when job is signed for you have it in writing.

    As a cctv engineer, I love it and wherever I go I'm always intrigued in how engineers have installed cctv in plastered walls and ceilings but I don't know whether they have installed it before or after it was plastered, what do you think?

  9. Hi guys! Hope everyone is well and enjoying the Christmas break! Firstly can I say thank you so much for providing me with great answers for some of my questions as I don't have many friends working in the CCTV sector it's great I have access to such a good forum.

    So I have another questions yet again which is that we mainly do installations for supermarkets and shops but not many restaurants and homes, and wanted to ask how people go about installing cameras on plastered walls and ceilings where fishing and wiring walls is a nuisance?

  10. this is public, if you two want to continue in trade then fine for a bit but not in public, one of you start a new thread in trade if you need to. If either of you continue in public i will put you on mod preview

     

    Who is that targeted to, me? sorry i am new to this forum, do you require me to move this forum to the trade section? or is it fine here?-
