North London
CCTV for Finchley family homes and flats above shops.
About this area
Finchley is a mix of leafy residential roads and busy parades, with Church End, East Finchley and North Finchley each having a distinct character. We help homeowners, landlords and small businesses plan camera coverage that suits the building rather than copying a generic layout.

Your property
Houses range from large Victorian and Edwardian properties to interwar semis, and there are many flats, including those above shops along the main roads. Flats above commercial units often have a shared street door and a private rear entrance, so the useful camera positions are usually the entrance, the rear access and any shared passage.
For a parade shop, the front door, till area and stockroom entrance are normally the key locations. For a large house, we tend to prioritise the front door, any side gate and the garden approach. Where a building has several flats, we separate what belongs to one household from communal areas, because communal coverage often needs agreement from the freeholder or management company.
Worth knowing
Converted houses in Finchley may have shared hallways and meters. If you are a leaseholder or tenant, communal cameras generally need the owner’s consent. We can advise on what is practical to install within your own demise, such as a doorbell-style camera at your own entrance.
How it works
The equipment and layout depend on your property. We supply Hikvision products among our equipment and confirm exact models in the quotation. We serve Finchley from across London and do not operate a local office there.
FAQs
Straight answers to common questions. If yours is not here, send us an enquiry.
Not usually without the freeholder’s or managing agent’s agreement, because the hallway is not solely yours. Coverage of your own front door from inside your flat, or from your own entrance, is a more straightforward starting point.
Sometimes. It depends on what the existing system uses and what you want to achieve. We would look at what is already in place at the survey before suggesting anything.
