Parkhurst: cameras for homes and businesses on active streets
Parkhurst is about 5 km south-west of Sandton City. In Parkhurst, many homes sit alongside the active retail and restaurant scene. This means front gates and business entrances often open directly onto pavements with constant foot and vehicle traffic, day and night. A camera system here has to distinguish between normal public activity and a specific event at your gate or door, without being triggered by every passer-by.
We position cameras to give a clear view of your entrance, driveway, or shopfront while minimising the view of the public pavement and neighbouring properties. For a business, this might mean one camera for a wide overview and another focused tightly on the doorway. For a home, we angle the gate camera to reduce glare from passing cars and focus only on the area immediately in front of your property.
For Parkhurst business owners, being able to find and export footage of an incident quickly is often the highest priority. We make sure the system is set up for easy playback and that you or your manager know exactly how to save a clip for the police or your records. This is often more important for operations than just having a live view on a phone.
Everything we install and repair, and how a job runs from first call to handover, is on our CCTV cameras page.
Questions from Parkhurst
My restaurant has tables on the pavement. Can I point a camera there?
Yes, to monitor your property and tables. We would position the camera to focus on your area and avoid covering the general public on the pavement. Clear signs noting that cameras are in use are important.
My house is close to the road. How do I stop getting alerts every time a car drives past?
We set up the camera's motion detection to ignore the road and pavement. By drawing a specific zone around your gate or pedestrian entrance, the system will only alert you when someone enters that area, not when they just pass by.
