Beyond the Keyboard: Clever CCTV Install in a Challenging Spot

Contact us

Most people know me for IT support—but my work spans far more than fixing computers. From smart home setups to CCTV installations, integrated tech is becoming a major part of what I do.

one of our  jobs this week? A wireless 3-camera CCTV system paired with a secure home hub. The client wanted maximum coverage and real-time alerts.

The house exterior was tiled from halfway up, making drilling risky and uneven. Cracked tiles weren’t an option. Instead of forcing it, I mounted 2 of the cameras to a drainpipe bracket—giving the setup the stability it needed without compromising the structure. Sometimes, the simplest solution just needs a bit of creative thinking.

These cameras are seriously capable:

  • ✅ Colour night vision for clarity after dark
  • ✅ Motion detection and instant phone alerts
  • ✅ Spotlight/floodlight features for deterring intruders
  • ✅ Wire-free install—no clutter, no hassle
  • ✅ Up to 180-day battery life for zero maintenance

Security isn’t just about installing gear. It’s about knowing it’ll work properly from day one. That’s why clients trust me to get the details right—no shortcuts, no surprises.

If your tech needs go beyond the computer screen, I’ve got you covered.
