CCTV and Video Surveillance

A camera is only worth what you can get out of it. Plenty of sites have cameras everywhere and still spend an hour hunting for the ten seconds that matter. GSS installs the cameras, pulls the cable, builds the recording, and puts the video where the people running the place actually look.

Inside a CCTV job

From the survey to the screen.

Survey

Every angle, planned.

A survey comes first: what needs to be seen, from where, and in what light. Each camera is then chosen for its position, and the blind spots get covered.

Infrastructure

Cable, power and network.

The same team pulls the cable, builds the PoE network and the recording, and puts backup power behind it, so nothing falls between two contractors.

Recording

Watch from anywhere.

Recording sized for the retention you need, and live video on a phone or a desktop, not only in the guard room.

AI events

Cameras that flag what matters.

Plates read at gates and bays, and line crossing, loitering and intrusion raised as events, each saved with the frame that caused it.

One picture

One operating picture.

Access control, intrusion, fire alarm, gates and vehicle video on the same screen, so one event shows everything around it.

The detail

What a CCTV job actually involves.

What goes in

  • A survey first: what needs to be seen, from where, and in what light
  • IP cameras chosen for the position rather than for the spec sheet
  • NVR or VMS sized for the channel count and the retention you need
  • Structured cabling, PoE switching, cabinets and backup power
  • Labelled, tested and handed over channel by channel

Where the video goes

  • Remote viewing on a phone and on a desktop, not only in the guard room
  • Retention set to what the operation and the insurer actually require
  • Clips exported with the time and the camera attached to them
  • Site cameras and vehicle MDVR side by side instead of in two portals
  • Feeds surfaced inside our own dashboards where a project calls for it

The AI layer

  • Plate recognition at gates, parking and delivery bays
  • Line crossing, loitering and area intrusion raised as events
  • Events stored with the frame that caused them, so a dispute has a picture
  • Fuel valve state read from a truck camera on petroleum work
  • Analytics added where they earn their place, not on every channel
Why GSS

One company for the whole thing.

The cameras and what feeds them

  • The same company does the power, the cabling and the network
  • No gap between the security contractor and the electrician
  • Distribution boards, transfer switching and backup supply in house

Tied into the rest of the site

  • Access control, intrusion and fire alarm on the same operating picture
  • Gates, barriers and building systems triggered from a camera event
  • KNX, BACnet and BMS work handled by the same engineers

Software when it is needed

  • Our own developers, so a dashboard is built rather than bought
  • Video put beside tracking, deliveries and fuel on fleet work
  • Reporting shaped around how the operation already runs
