Cameras for Craighall Park gates, long driveways and big gardens
Craighall Park is about 4 km south-west of Sandton City. On a Craighall Park stand the camera that matters most usually faces a street gate at the end of a long driveway, and at night headlights shine straight into it and wash the picture out just as a car arrives. Further back, big trees grow into the views over a season or two, and cameras tucked under deep eaves light up their own surroundings with infrared and show a white haze.
We place the gate camera off the line of the headlights and set it up for night use, re-aim the garden views and draw motion areas that ignore the trees, and move eave-mounted cameras a short distance so the infrared lights the garden rather than the wall. Many homes here have older analogue systems on sound cable runs, and we can often reuse that cabling and replace the cameras and recorder for a far sharper picture.
For the household, phone viewing is set up and tested on everyone's phones before we leave, with the gate camera in the same app. If you have bought a house here with cameras already on the walls, change the passwords before you move in: the previous owners may still have access on their phones, and Tyson can check the system and reset the admin login.
Everything we install and repair, and how a job runs from first call to handover, is on our CCTV cameras page.
Questions from Craighall Park
Can I see who is at the gate from my phone?
Yes. The gate camera goes into the app with the rest, and we test it with you on your phone before we leave. It needs the home internet connection to be working.
Will the cameras keep recording in a power cut?
Only if the recorder and the cameras have backup power. We can fit a battery backup for both so recording carries on through an outage.
