Are cameras and alarms right for me?

Determining whether your property or situation is suitable for CCTV cameras or alarms comes down to answering the following questions: 

  1. Do you live in an area with a high or increasing crime rate? If theft, burglary, or vandalism are common in your neighbourhood, it’s a clear indicator that additional security measures could be beneficial.
  2. Have you or your neighbours experienced break-ins or theft? Personal experience or incidents in your immediate area are strong signs that your current security might be insufficient.
  3. Do you often travel or leave the house unattended? Homes that stand empty for extended periods are more attractive to potential intruders. A comprehensive camera and alarm system can act as a deterrent and provide remote monitoring.
  4. Do you feel anxious about home security? If worries about your home’s safety keep you up at night, installing a security system can offer peace of mind.
  5. Do you have valuables that need protection? High-value items or important documents in your home necessitate enhanced security measures.

If you find yourself nodding to any (or all) of these questions, it might be time to consider a camera and alarm installation. 

The Lock2Lock team is here to assess your needs and provide tailored solutions that bring you security and peace of mind.

How long does it take to install cameras and alarms?

Installation times can vary based on several factors. Typically, the installation process can be broken down as follows:

Step One: Initial Consultation and Assessment 

This usually takes 1-2 hours. Our team at Lock will visit your property to understand your specific needs, evaluate the layout, and recommend the best security solution.

Step Two: System Setup and Configuration

This includes setting up the software, configuring the cameras and alarms, and ensuring everything is connected and working properly. This process usually takes about 1-2 hours.

Step Three: Training and Handover

Once installation is complete, our team will spend about an hour guiding you through the system’s operation, ensuring you’re comfortable with using it and answering any questions you might have.

Installation Time Guidelines

  • Basic Systems: For smaller homes or simpler systems, installation can often be completed within 4-6 hours.
  • Standard Systems: A standard system installation generally takes about 1-2 days, depending on the complexity and the number of cameras and sensors required.
  • Complex or Custom Systems: For larger properties or systems with advanced features like extensive camera coverage or integrated smart home technology, the installation might take 2-3 days.

Factors That Affect Installation Time

  • Size and Layout of Your Property: Larger homes or complex layouts may require additional time.
  • Type of Equipment Installed: More sophisticated systems or those requiring special installation (like hard-to-reach places) can extend the installation time.
  • Existing Infrastructure: Homes with pre-existing wiring or compatible technology can reduce installation time.

At Lock2Lock, we value your time and strive to complete installations efficiently without compromising on quality. 

Our team works diligently to ensure minimal disruption to your daily routine, aiming to get your new security system up and running as swiftly as possible.

What should I look for in an installation team?

Identifying professional camera and alarm installation services in Brisbane involves a few key considerations. Here’s what to look for to ensure you’re getting a professional and reliable service:

  • Licences and Certifications: Check that the service provider is licensed and certified to carry out security system installations. In Australia, this often means they should have a security installer’s licence and any relevant certifications in the field.
  • Experience and Expertise: Look for a company with a proven track record. Experienced installers will have a portfolio or case studies of their previous work. They should be knowledgeable about various types of security systems and capable of advising on the best options for your needs.
  • Quality of Equipment: Professionals use high-quality, reliable equipment from reputable manufacturers. They should be able to explain the benefits of different brands and models.
  • Customer Reviews and Testimonials: Check online reviews, testimonials, and client feedback. A reputable service provider will have positive reviews and be willing to provide references.
  • Custom Solutions: Look for services that offer tailored solutions rather than one-size-fits-all packages. Your property is unique, and your security system should reflect that.
  • Warranty and After-Sales Support: A professional installer will provide a warranty for their work and the equipment. They should also offer after-sales support for maintenance or any issues that arise post-installation.

At Lock2Lock, we tick all these boxes. We are fully licensed and have extensive experience in installing various types of cameras and alarm systems. 

We pride ourselves on offering customised solutions and top-notch customer service, ensuring our clients are satisfied and secure.
