Within 18 minutes the problem was resolved and I was emailed a copy of the report from Protive, Joe was is a credit the team.

Thank you for your speedy response and I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to the excellent service we received, in particular the communication we received with Stephanie and Joe was amazing in the office, prompt  and very supportive with the circumstances, and caring young man, Joe who carried out the work required.

Commercial CCTV FAQs

What certifications should a CCTV installer have?

When choosing a company for commercial CCTV installation, it’s important to look for recognised industry accreditations. We are SSAIB accredited, demonstrating that our CCTV systems are designed, installed and maintained to the highest independent industry standards. Choosing an accredited installer gives you confidence that your security system will be professionally installed, fully compliant with current regulations and capable of delivering reliable, long-term protection for your business.

Get in Touch

Can CCTV footage be used as legal evidence?

Yes. High-quality footage captured by professionally installed commercial CCTV systems can be used as evidence in police investigations, insurance claims and court proceedings. To ensure footage is admissible, it should be recorded, stored and managed in accordance with the Data Protection Act and UK GDPR.

Get in Touch

Will the system work at night or in low light?

Absolutely. Our commercial CCTV cameras use advanced infrared and low-light imaging technology to provide clear, high-definition footage around the clock. Whether you’re monitoring a warehouse, office, retail premises or industrial site, your CCTV system will continue to deliver reliable performance day and night.

Get in Touch

Can I monitor my CCTV system remotely?

Yes. Our commercial CCTV installation services include secure remote viewing, allowing you to access live and recorded footage from your smartphone, tablet or computer. This means you can keep an eye on your business wherever you are, providing complete peace of mind.

Get in Touch

How long is footage stored?

The length of time CCTV footage is stored depends on the size of your recording system, the number of cameras installed and the recording settings you choose. We design every commercial CCTV system to meet your operational requirements while ensuring storage complies with UK data protection regulations.

Get in Touch

How long can CCTV footage be kept?

There is no fixed legal time limit for retaining CCTV footage, but it should only be kept for as long as there is a legitimate business reason. Most organisations retain recordings for between 30 and 90 days, although this can vary depending on your industry, security requirements and legal obligations. Our engineers can advise on the most appropriate retention period for your business.

Get in Touch

Do Protive systems reduce false alarms?

Yes. Our latest commercial CCTV systems utilise intelligent AI-powered video analytics to distinguish genuine security threats from everyday activity. This significantly reduces false alarms caused by wildlife, weather or routine movements, allowing security teams to respond more effectively to real incidents.

Get in Touch

Is CCTV signage required?

In most commercial environments, yes. If your CCTV system captures images of employees, customers or members of the public, you are generally required to display clear signage informing people that CCTV is in operation. Our team can advise on best practice and help ensure your commercial CCTV installation complies with UK GDPR and current surveillance regulations.
