CCTV Installation in Reigate & Redhill

CCTV installers for Reigate and Redhill: two towns, two different briefs

Reigate and Redhill are only about two miles apart, but they feel quite different. Reigate is a historic market town beneath the North Downs, with a conservation area at its heart and large houses climbing the hill. Redhill grew up around its railway junction and is busier and more commercial, with new apartment blocks near the station and industrial estates to the north and south. Good CCTV installation in Reigate and Redhill reflects that difference, so we plan every system around the property in front of us rather than a standard package.

We have installed CCTV, door entry, access control and gates since 1999. Each project starts with a free survey and ends with a phone app set up and demonstrated before we leave.

Period homes and hillside houses in Reigate

Victorian villas around Wray Park and the larger houses on Reigate Hill often come with long drives, mature hedges and outbuildings. Those are the places an intruder uses for cover, so we position cameras to watch the drive, side paths and garage doors, with colour night vision that picks out faces and clothing after dark.

In and around the town-centre conservation area, most owners want cameras that are hard to spot. We use compact turret and dome cameras in colours that match the fascia, and run cables through lofts and voids instead of across brickwork. Family homes in Woodhatch and South Park usually need a simpler set-up: front door, drive and back garden, all on one app.

CCTV installers for Redhill flats, shops and offices

Redhill town centre has changed quickly, with new apartment buildings close to the station and restaurants and bars that keep the centre busy into the evening. For door entry in Redhill we fit video panels from Videx, Commtel and Entrotec. For access control in Reigate and Redhill buildings we use Paxton fobs on communal doors, car park gates and bike stores. Lost fobs can be cancelled in seconds, which matters in buildings where tenants change often.

Retailers in The Belfry and along Station Road, and the independent shops on Reigate's High Street, Bell Street and Church Street, benefit from cameras covering tills, entrances and back doors, with footage you can export quickly if you need to hand it over.

Industrial estates from Holmethorpe to Salfords

The Holmethorpe estate towards Merstham and the Salfords industrial estate on the A23 south of Earlswood are home to trade counters, workshops and distribution units. These sites tend to have open yards, parked vans and stock on display. For them we typically recommend:

• PTZ and long-range 4K cameras covering yards and perimeter fencing
• ANPR at site entrances to log every vehicle
• Rising-arm barriers or sliding gates for vehicle control
• Fob or keypad access on staff doors and stores
• Remote viewing and alerts for owners outside working hours

Gates for drives below the Downs

Drives on the slopes beneath the North Downs bring their own challenge. Electric gates in Reigate often have to cope with a gradient, so we measure it at the survey and choose between sliding and swing gates on that basis. We fit FAAC, CAME or BFT motors sized for the weight of the gate and the slope, then set the force limits and test the photocells and safety edges under our Gatesafe registration (#2187) before handing over.
