Camera surveillance prices

Are you attached to your property? With camera surveillance, you will leave home feeling nice and safe, knowing that your belongings are always safe. Camera surveillance prices are not the same everywhere. On Renoca, you can easily find out what securing your home with CCTV will cost for you.

What does CCTV cost?

On average, CCTV costs £900. First decide what kind of camera you want and how much. The biggest price difference is in the quality of the cameras. See prices of various surveillance cameras below, including a recorder to record your images and view them via the internet or your smartphone.

As cheap as possible:

Do you only need surveillance at 1 place, for example at your garage to monitor your car and bikes, and don’t think HD image is necessary? Then buy an analogue set with 1 camera. Make sure the camera is suitable for outdoor use. You will then spend between £300 and £450.

Home security:

You would like to secure not only your garage, but also the front door of your house. Then get a set with 2 cameras. This way, you have surveillance in all areas around your home. For an analogue set with 2 cameras, you will spend between £350 and £500.

Home security with an HD IP System:

For a more detailed image, for example to better recognise people or license plates, get an HD IP System with 2 cameras. Then you will spend between £600 and £1,600.

Price structure camera security

The choices you make determine the price of your camera security.

The price of your camera surveillance system is determined by the 5 choices below.

Choice 1: Analogue or HD IP

• Analogue: There are 2 different forms of camera surveillance: analogue and HD IP. The analogue surveillance camera has a somewhat outdated system and the image is not as sharp as that of an HD IP camera system. Hence, an analogue camera system is a lot cheaper than an HD IP surveillance camera. For an analogue camera system with 1 camera, you pay around £300 and £450.
• HD IP: Want razor-sharp images? Then an HD IP surveillance camera is more for you. An HD IP camera has a much higher resolution, making the image quality much better. This allows you to record much more detailed and recognisable images. For an HD IP surveillance camera system with 1 camera, you pay around £500 and £1,100.

Choice 2: Type of surveillance cameras: Dome or Bullet

• Bullet camera: A bullet camera is a camera on a stand or bracket and is more often waterproof than a dome camera. As a result, it is often bought for outdoor use. A bullet camera is striking and you can always see exactly where it is pointed, which has a deterrent effect on burglars.
• Dome camera: Dome cameras are round and are therefore more resistant to vandalism and blowing branches. A big advantage of a dome camera is that you can place them against the wall, but also on the ceiling. A dome camera is sometimes waterproof, but not always. So when buying a dome camera, you should pay close attention to this. With a dome camera, you cannot see where it is pointed. They often look neater and cables can be hidden more easily.

Choice 3: stand-alone camera or recorder included?

A surveillance camera is not very useful without a recorder because you cannot record images. This is why you usually buy a camera with a recorder. However, you only need to buy a recorder once. A separate camera is a lot cheaper. An analogue single camera starts at £80 and a HD IP camera at £300.

Choice 4: Install it yourself or have it installed?

Most people choose to have their security cameras installed by a technician, because then you can be sure it will be connected properly. Prices of having your surveillance camera installed vary between £150 and £200.

Choice 5: Additional options

When buying your new surveillance cameras, there are a number of additional options to purchase. They are not compulsory but they are worth considering.
