Home CCTV systems
A well-designed residential CCTV system covers entry points, the driveway, garage, and any blind spots around the property. Most homes in Cheltenham, Beaumaris, and Brighton run a 4–6 camera setup with a centralised NVR (network video recorder) and remote viewing via smartphone.
What a standard home CCTV installation includes:
- Alhua, Hikvision, Hanwha or Bosch cameras (your choice, we'll recommend based on your property)
- Indoor and outdoor-rated cameras (weatherproof-rated for outdoor use)
- NVR with local storage, no subscription, footage stays on site
- Cabling concealed in walls or roof cavity where practical
- Remote access via app (iOS and Android)
We provide a fixed written quote before any work begins.
Installation time: A 4-camera system typically takes 3–4 hours. We work around your schedule.




Commercial CCTV installation
Businesses in the Moorabbin, Heatherton, and Cheltenham industrial precincts often need a more robust setup, higher-resolution cameras, larger storage capacity, access control integration, and compliance with Workplace Health and Safety requirements.
We install commercial CCTV for:
- Warehouses and manufacturing facilities
- Retail and hospitality premises
- Office and commercial tenancies
- Body corporate and strata properties
- Construction sites (temporary or permanent installations)
Commercial systems from Alhua and Hanwha support higher megapixel counts, longer retention windows, and integration with access control and alarm panels. We design the system around your site, not a one-size package.
For businesses that also need electrical fit-outs, switchboard upgrades, or commercial EV charging, we can schedule all work in a single visit to minimise disruption.
Bundle CCTV with your electrical or solar work
One of the main reasons Bayside homeowners choose Helcro Electrical for security work is convenience. If you're already having solar installed, a switchboard upgraded, or a split system put in, adding CCTV to the same job saves a separate callout and the cost of running separate cable.
We've installed CCTV alongside solar panel systems, switchboard upgrades, and air conditioning in a single day across Cheltenham, Bentleigh East, and Highett. Our electricians are trained across all of these services, there's no subcontracting and no second team to coordinate.
If security is on your list alongside any other electrical or energy upgrade, let us know when you enquire and we'll scope everything together.
