In this following section, we will be discussing how these systems work. 

 

Surveillance Cameras 

 

Most types of home surveillance cameras are activated by motion, similar to intruder alarms. Once motion has been detected, recording will start capturing any of the surrounding movements. Often home surveillance cameras will alert the homeowner using a compatible app whilst providing real-time streaming which can help manage false activations. Backed up by cloud-based servers, surveillance footage can be accessed from any internet-connected device.  Need a team of reliable CCTV installers in Cardiff who can provide a timely and hassle-free service?

Once one of these motion sensors are triggered, the alarm is then activated which transmits a loud sound that can be heard both inside and outside the property. In addition to this, a flashing light can be seen on the exterior of the property coming from the alarm box.

Customer Testimonials

We had two security camera's fitted at our property yesterday morning by VOG security. They were on time, very friendly and helpful and did such a good job. We couldn't see any wires at all outside the house! Everything was boxed up wonderfully. I can't recommend these guys enough. They even fit my new ring doorbell and got rid of my old one. They then sat with me patiently helping me set it all up. If you are thinking of getting security at your house, these are the guys to call. 5 out of 5 service.

100% recommend VOG fire & security, excellent service from my very first contact to them until they left here today. Call out and quoted within hours of messeging them, then booked in for the installation within a couple of days. All 4 members of the team I met were very professional and fitted the alarm system to a very high standard. Cleaned up too. Honestly I wouldn't use anyone else. Thank you very much VOG fire & security 😊
