What do I need for a complete CCTV system?

A CCTV system will be based around a DVR or digital video recorder. CCTV cameras are connected to the DVR using cables and there will be some ancillary items such as a power supply for the cameras.

What types of CCTV Systems are there?

There is a huge variety of systems available. Work on the basis that whatever you need there is a solution - budgets are the only limiting factor. Margin Electrosec can install systems for homes, businesses, and large organizations that can be both standalone or monitored by a Video Monitoring Centre. We have a wide choice of cameras - internal, external, vandal resistant, heat-sensitive, covert, domes, conventional cameras, and more.

What is the difference between Indoor Cam and Stick Up Cam?

The main difference between Indoor Cam and Stick Up Cam are their placement and how they receive power.
Indoor Cam is an indoor-only camera that plugs into standard power outlets for nonstop power.
Stick Up Cam is a versatile camera that goes anywhere indoors or out. It’s weather-resistant and comes in four different power options: battery, plug-in, solar and Power over Ethernet.

What privacy features are included with Indoor Cam?

Indoor Cam lets you disable motion recording and audio right from the app. Plus, you can also use the app to turn off motion alerts, so you don’t get notifications while you walk around your home. You can also schedule your motion alerts to turn on at the same time you typically leave the house and turn off at the time you typically return.

Does Indoor Cam save my videos so I can view them later?

If you have a subscription to Ring Protect, videos captured by your Indoor Cam will be saved to your Ring account for up to 60 days. You can also download your videos to save them for longer than 60 days.

Every Indoor Cam comes with a free 30-day trial of Ring Protect Basic. (Note: If you have a Protect Plus subscription for the location where you’re installing your new Indoor Cam, it will automatically be covered by your subscription.) You can choose to enroll in a paid subscription of Ring Protect at any time. If you enroll during the free trial, you won’t be charged until the trial ends.
