From evidence to action

A complete
monitored security
solution.

Traditional CCTV records what happened. A properly configured monitored system can also generate events during agreed periods, allowing activity to be assessed remotely and handled under the selected service.

Designed around the premises, risk and hours of protection.

Where monitoring adds value

Protection beyond opening hours.

Monitored CCTV is particularly effective where premises, compounds or valuable assets are left unattended and a recorded image alone is not enough.

Suitable environments include

  • Retail and commercial premises
  • Industrial units, warehouses and yards
  • Construction sites and temporary compounds
  • Remote or lightly staffed locations
  • Areas vulnerable to theft, trespass or vandalism
  • Monitoring-ready upgrades to suitable systems

How monitored CCTV works

Detection, connectivity and response must work together

A monitored system uses carefully configured detection rules to identify activity in selected areas during agreed periods. Events can then be transmitted for assessment rather than simply remaining on a recorder to be discovered later.

The effectiveness of the system depends on camera placement, accurate detection configuration, reliable communications and appropriate maintenance. Summit CCTV designs and installs the on-site CCTV and connectivity required for a monitoring-ready solution.

Important: Monitoring availability, alarm handling and response procedures depend on the monitoring provider and the service agreed for each individual site. These details are confirmed within the proposal.

Typical monitored applications

  • Retail and commercial premises after hours
  • Warehouses, yards and industrial units
  • Construction sites and temporary compounds
  • Remote or lightly staffed locations
  • Areas vulnerable to theft or trespass
  • Suitable existing-system upgrades
  • Ongoing testing and maintenance
