CCTV installation FAQs

How much does CCTV installation cost in Cape Town?

It depends on the number of cameras, the camera type and the cabling required. A basic home system starts lower, while larger commercial sites cost more. We provide a clear written quote after a free site assessment.

Wired or wireless CCTV — which is better?

Wired (cabled) CCTV is more reliable and stable for permanent installations, with no battery or signal-drop issues. We recommend and install wired systems for most homes and businesses.
