    CCTV Installation Services in Lidcombe

    Most of the CCTV work we do around Bankstown, Punchbowl, Greenacre and Chullora is the same shape: four to eight hardwired cameras (usually IP over Cat6), an on-site NVR sitting in a cupboard or on top of a wardrobe, and an app that lets you check the driveway, back yard or shopfront from your phone. No monthly cloud subscription, footage stays on your recorder, and the whole thing keeps working when the internet drops out.

    What cctv installation usually looks like around Lidcombe

    A lot of our Lidcombe CCTV work is on the industrial side — warehouse and business-park sites running 8–16 hardwired PoE camera systems covering loading docks, roller doors, yard perimeter and racking aisles, recording to a lockable NVR in the office. On the residential side, the newer townhouse pockets take a compact 4–6 camera system covering driveway, front door and rear yard.

    Servicing Lidcombe as part of Sydney-wide coverage — same-day quotes, emergency and same-day callouts booked on the call.

    Key Features of Our CCTV Installation in Lidcombe

    • 4-to-8 camera systems on your own on-site NVR — no cloud subscription
    • Hardwired PoE over Cat6 — cables through the roof cavity, not down the brickwork
    • 4K bullet cameras for driveways and long runs; turret cameras under eaves
    • Front door, driveway, side gates, back yard and garage covered by default on homes
    • POS, front/rear entrance, stockroom and loading bay coverage on shopfronts
    • Set up on your phone with a walkthrough so you can pull footage yourself when it matters

    For homes we typically cover the front door and driveway, side gates, back yard and any garage or workshop, using a mix of 4K bullet cameras on eaves and lower-profile turret cameras under soffits. Cable runs go through the roof cavity wherever possible so you do not end up with visible cable trunking down brickwork. For shopfronts and small commercial fit-outs along Bankstown Central, Padstow, Revesby or the Milperra business parks, we cover point-of-sale, front and rear entrances, stockrooms and loading bays.

    Everything is powered from the NVR via PoE (so no dodgy plugpacks hanging off eaves), tested end-to-end before we leave, and set up with a proper user account on your phone. Our Lidcombe electricians handhold the first playback so you actually know how to pull a clip if something happens, rather than working it out under stress six months later.

    Frequently Asked Questions About CCTV Installation in Lidcombe

    Do I need an electrician to install CCTV or can any security installer do it?

    For basic plug-in home kits, no. For anything that is hardwired, PoE-powered from a proper enclosure and cabled through the roof cavity — which is what actually lasts more than a couple of years in Sydney weather — you want a licensed electrician doing the cable runs, the mains-side power for the NVR and the earthing. We do the whole install, not just the cabling.

    How many cameras does a standard Bankstown-area house actually need?

    Almost every home we do lands on four to six. The must-haves are the front door/driveway, both side gates and the back yard. Add-ons that come up a lot: the garage or workshop, a granny flat entrance, or a driveway camera specifically pointed at the letterbox and street. Going above eight cameras on a typical suburban block is usually overkill — you end up recording an empty side path 24/7.

    Will the footage keep working if my internet drops out?

    Yes. That is the point of an on-site NVR rather than a cloud-only system. The recorder keeps writing footage to its internal drive regardless of whether the internet is up. When you lose internet you lose remote access from your phone temporarily, but the moment the connection is back the app reconnects and every second of footage is still there.

    How long does the footage stay on the recorder?

    Depends on drive size, number of cameras and how much motion each camera sees. A typical 4-camera home system with a 2TB drive holds about 30 days of continuous recording, or noticeably longer if you set the cameras to only record on motion. We size the drive to give you at least 30 days on the setup you have chosen and tell you the exact number as part of the quote.

    Can I add more cameras later without ripping the whole system out?

    Yes, provided the NVR has spare PoE ports (we always spec at least two spare) and there is a cable route to the new camera location. Most add-on cameras a year or two later cost the same as adding them at the start plus a small labour amount for the cable run — a lot less than a whole new system.
