Dann's Electrical holds a NSW Security Industry Licence (Class 2C) and installs home security cameras and alarms across Penrith, Western Sydney, the Blue Mountains and Hawkesbury.
A camera is only useful if it's pointed at the right place, has reliable power and records when you need it. We walk the property with you, work out the entry points worth covering and place cameras so they see faces and number plates, not your neighbour's backyard.
We install wired and wireless systems, video doorbells, alarms and sensor lighting, run the cabling neatly, and set everything up on your phone before we leave.

CCTV and the law
Privacy rules for home CCTV, from NSW legislation and the Information and Privacy Commission.
The NSW Surveillance Devices Act makes it an offence to record a private conversation without consent, even one you're part of, with limited exceptions. Penalties include up to 5 years' jail.
The Act also says you must not install a camera that involves entering someone else's premises without the owner or occupier's consent.
The Information and Privacy Commission NSW notes that where a property is part of a strata scheme, you can check whether CCTV contravenes a by-law.
