What's included

CCTV that you can rely on is CCTV you actually use. The systems we audit and replace most often are the ones where cameras were installed but the footage is unreviewable when needed. Low resolution. Badly placed. Recording to a back-room box nobody knows how to log into. Accessible only via the original installer who has long since left. The systems that work are the ones where camera placement, network, storage and access were planned as one system from the start.

Pain-points specific to CCTV are being drafted. Talk to us about what you’re seeing.

How we deliver it

We survey the site against what you actually need to review. What do you need to see, under what conditions, and how long do you need to keep the footage. From there we design the camera placement, the cabling routes, the network capacity, the recording storage and the remote-access pattern as one system. Because Alexis IT also installs the structured cabling and holds Full Electrical Registration, the cabling pathways, the PoE switching and any electrical work for camera mounting are signed off by one accountable team.

Outcomes

Outcome statements for CCTV are being drafted (4–6 per spoke).

Frequently asked questions.

How much does commercial CCTV cost to install?
Cost depends on camera count, camera type (fixed dome vs PTZ vs specialist low-light or thermal), recording requirements (days retained, frame rate, resolution), cabling distance from each camera to the recorder, and whether install runs alongside other Alexis IT work on the same programme. We price against a documented camera schedule rather than a per-camera rate.
How many CCTV cameras do I need?
Camera count is driven by what you actually need to see, not square metres. A typical commercial office covers entries, reception, accessible perimeter and high-value areas — often 6 to 12 cameras. A warehouse covers loading dock, goods-in and goods-out, aisle ends, and rear yard — often 12 to 24. A construction site covers gates, secure compound and high-risk work areas; count changes through the build.
Do you install IP CCTV and network video recorders?
Yes — IP CCTV is the default for new commercial installs. Cameras run over network cabling and power-over-ethernet (PoE) from a managed switch, recording to a network video recorder (NVR) sized to the camera count, retention period and resolution. Because Alexis IT installs the cabling, switching and cameras, the install is signed off as one system.
Can I view CCTV footage remotely from my phone?
Yes — every system we install supports remote viewing from a mobile app and a browser. Remote access is configured securely (encrypted, MFA where supported, routed through the business firewall — not direct camera exposure to the public internet). User accounts are issued per reviewer so the footage-access log shows who viewed what and when.
How long is CCTV footage retained, and what does the NZ Privacy Act require?
Retention is a business decision constrained by the Privacy Act 2020 — personal information (including identifiable people on CCTV) only kept as long as needed for the purpose collected. For commercial security CCTV that's typically 30 to 90 days of rolling retention, after which footage is overwritten unless a specific incident is flagged. We size NVR storage to your use case and document the retention setup for audit.
