The use of CCTV (closed circuit television) and DVR (digital video recorders) systems in custom home is becoming more and more popular. They provide security when you are home, and can help you keep an eye on your property from your office, cottage or around the world.

A CCTV system allows you to view live colour images on any television or touch panel in your home. Placing a camera at your front door allows you to check who is calling before answering the door. Putting another camera near your pool allows you to keep an eye on the kids while performing tasks around your home. Not only does a CCTV system provide piece of mind, it may also reduce your insurance costs.

A DVR system takes it one step further by allowing you to record and store footage digitally on a hard disk. This allows you to search for images from any time frame up to three months back, and see what occurred when you were not watching. This can be very useful in police investigations in the unfortunate event of a break in, and is admissible in court. A DVR system also allows internet viewing of cameras around the world, so you can keep on eye on your home, your cottage, or your office from anywhere
