Littlefillan: cameras for freestanding homes and shared complex perimeters
In Littlefillan, security systems serve two distinct types of property. Older, freestanding homes stand on what were once parts of a single farm, often behind their original boundary walls. Newer cluster complexes, built on subdivided land, present a different challenge with shared perimeters and single entrance gates that serve all residents. For both, access from surrounding roads like Ballyclare Drive and Outspan Road is a key planning consideration.
For a freestanding home in Littlefillan, we focus cameras on the gate and the length of the original walls, taking into account mature gardens. In a complex like Kent Downs, our work for the body corporate typically covers the shared perimeter and entrance. We then assist individual homeowners with cameras covering their own private doorways and gardens, making sure these do not overlook neighbouring units or shared property.
For trustees in Littlefillan's complexes, managing who has access to footage is important. The gate and perimeter camera recordings belong to the body corporate, not individual owners. We help establish clear rules for viewing and exporting footage, making sure access is limited to authorised individuals. The Information Regulator has proposed a code for gated communities that would guide how long this footage can be kept.
Everything we install and repair, and how a job runs from first call to handover, is on our CCTV cameras page.
Questions from Littlefillan
Our complex has cameras on the gate. Can I ask you to add one for my own unit?
Yes. The body corporate is responsible for the shared perimeter and gate cameras. We work separately with individual homeowners to install cameras covering their own private areas like front doors or patios, making sure the installation is neat and respects the complex's rules.
The older house I bought in Littlefillan has cameras. Do I need to change them?
We recommend changing the passwords immediately, as the previous owner may still have access. Tyson can also assess the system for you. We can often upgrade older cameras and recorders to high-definition while reusing the existing, sound cabling.
