CCTV surveillance & monitored CCTV
CCTV monitoring & surveillance
Monitored CCTV and site cameras that deter intruders, watch access points and capture evidence when it matters — across construction, commercial, industrial and vacant sites UK-wide from our Sheffield base. Alarm activations are escalated through our Alarm Receiving Centre console and resolved on record.
What we provide
Eyes on your site, evidence on the record
CCTV surveillance gives a site a visible, watchful presence that deters opportunists before an incident begins — and a recorded account of what happened when one does. It extends coverage across entrances, perimeters and blind spots that a single officer cannot watch at once.
Tech Guarding treats CCTV as part of an accountable security picture, not a camera left to record into a void. Monitored site cameras work alongside our SIA-licensed officers, and alarm activations are routed to our 24/7 Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) console, where every event is acknowledged, escalated and resolved on record.
- Proactive deterrence from a visible, monitored camera presence
- Recorded footage as time-stamped evidence for incidents and insurers
- Monitoring of access points, entrances and vulnerable perimeters
- Alarm activations escalated through our ARC console
- Integrated with on-site guards and mobile patrols

How it works
From alarm to action
CCTV is most effective when a camera triggering an alert leads to a decision and a response. Here is how monitored surveillance becomes accountable cover.
Visible deterrence
A monitored camera presence discourages intruders, theft and trespass before an incident starts, protecting your site around the clock.
Evidence capture
Recorded footage gives a time-stamped account of events, supporting insurance claims, investigations and police reports.
ARC alarm handling
Alarm activations are acknowledged, escalated and resolved through our 24/7 Alarm Receiving Centre console — no event slips through unnoticed.
Integrated with guarding
Surveillance complements SIA-licensed officers and patrols, so a verified alarm can prompt a real response on the ground.
Accountable by design
Every alarm acknowledged, escalated and resolved
Alarm activations and the responses to them are recorded on our Alarm Receiving Centre console, so nothing relies on memory or assumption. Each event carries a timestamped audit trail — when the alarm came in, who acknowledged it, how it was escalated and how it was resolved — giving you a clear, reviewable record for stakeholders and insurers.
CCTV monitoring FAQs
Do you monitor CCTV around the clock?
Alarm activations from connected CCTV and detection systems are handled 24/7 through our Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) console, where each event is acknowledged, escalated and resolved on record. Ongoing site monitoring schedules are arranged to suit your premises and risk profile.
Can CCTV footage be used as evidence?
Yes. Recorded CCTV footage provides time-stamped evidence of incidents that supports insurance claims, investigations and, where needed, police reports. We log alarm activations and the responses to them with an auditable trail.
Does CCTV work alongside security guards?
Yes. CCTV surveillance complements SIA-licensed manned guarding and mobile patrols. Cameras extend an officer's reach across a site, and an alarm activation can prompt an officer or patrol to verify and respond in person.
What happens when an alarm is triggered?
When a connected system raises an alarm, the activation lands on our ARC console where it is acknowledged, assessed and escalated to the agreed response — alerting an on-site officer, dispatching a mobile patrol or notifying a key holder — with every step recorded against a timestamped audit trail.
