How CCTV Deters Break-Ins
Burglars are normally quite quick to assess the risks involved in attempting a break-in. Visible security can change their minds.
Position Cameras Where They Can Be Seen
Deters Break-Ins – Most burglars make a quick risk assessment before attempting a break-in. Visible security measures change that calculation significantly.
Add Warning Signage
Combine your cameras with clear CCTV signage to reinforce the message to potential intruders. The signage clearly states that recording is taking place and that any footage could be used as evidence in relation to a break-in.
Use Good Lighting and HD Cameras
Anyone who has broken into a property will know that poor quality images are unlikely to lead to anyone being identified and brought to justice. They will therefore do their best to avoid a property with high definition images of good quality.
Consider Monitored Systems
Passive recording of a premise via CCTV can be a useful deterrent however monitored CCTV or remotely accessed systems provide a higher level of deterrent as intruders will fear a live response.
