About this area
CCTV in Highgate: how we can help
Highgate combines a village-style high street with substantial period houses on quiet, often tree-lined roads. Security installations here tend to be about subtlety as much as coverage, so we place a lot of weight on neat finishes and good planning.

Your property
Property types and what they need
Larger villas, mansion-style flats and mews homes are common, many with gates, long approaches and mature gardens. The useful camera positions often include the gate or entrance, the front door, any garage or parking area, and the rear garden approach, with the recorder sited somewhere secure inside the property.
Coverage and camera placement
On a longer plot, a single camera at the door may not capture the approach. We discuss a layered arrangement, with a camera covering the gate or boundary, another covering the path and a third watching the entrance, if the property warrants it. Camera choice depends on distance, light levels and how visible you want the equipment to be.
Worth knowing
Practical considerations in Highgate
Highgate has conservation areas and a number of listed buildings, so exterior alterations to some properties may need consent. If your home is in one, check requirements before installation. Gardens with heavy foliage and overhanging trees can also affect infrared performance and motion alerts, which we can allow for in the design.

FAQs
Questions from Highgate customers
Straight answers to common questions. If yours is not here, send us an enquiry.
Can CCTV be fitted to a gated property with a long approach?
Yes. The usual challenges are cable distance and lighting along the approach, which we assess on site. Camera positions can then be matched to the gate, path and door.
Can you hide the recorder and cabling?
In most cases cabling can be concealed within walls, lofts or trunking, and the recorder can be placed in a cupboard or comms area. The exact approach depends on the structure and your preferences.
