What CCTV & Access Integration is
Integration links the access control system to CCTV so every door event has a matching video clip. Instead of scrubbing hours of footage, you click the event and watch it.
The Greater London sites we fit this on are rarely starting from nothing. There is normally something already on the door, working badly or not at all, and the first real question is whether it is worth keeping.
Who asks for it in Greater London
Any site already running both systems, and any site where incidents need evidencing.
- Healthcare and care homes — step-free automated entry, staff-only zones and fail-safe escape routes.
- Warehouses and depots — vehicle gate control, personnel doors and turnstiles on the pedestrian route.
- Retail and hospitality — back-of-house control, cash-office restriction and CCTV-linked door events.
- Commercial premises — multi-door fob or card systems with access levels, time zones and a full audit trail.
What a proper install includes
- Event-tagged video bookmarks against every door transaction
- Camera call-up on door-forced and door-held alarms
- Shared user interface across access and video
- Retention aligned to your data protection policy
Getting the specification right
- Set retention deliberately; longer is not automatically better under UK GDPR
- Agree who may pull footage and log every export
- Check both systems support a common integration before buying either
Survey, quote, install
Nothing gets priced from a phone call. An engineer walks the doors, notes what is there, works out what has to change, and puts it in writing with the hardware named and the per-door cost shown. Free site survey, fixed written quotation, and no work starts until you have approved the price.
Commissioning is part of the job, not an extra visit. You finish with a working system, a tested fire interface, and a named person on your team who knows how to administer it.

CCTV & Access Integration in Greater London — questions
Do you install cctv & access integration in Greater London?
Yes. Greater London is part of our regular England coverage and cctv & access integration is one of our core services. Give us the postcode and the number of doors when you enquire and we will confirm a survey slot.
What does cctv & access integration cost in Greater London?
Pricing is driven by door count and hardware rather than county. As a guide, a single controlled door lands between £750 and £1,500 installed, with multi-door sites working out at £600 to £1,100 per door. The survey is free and the written quote is fixed.
Do the access control and CCTV need to be the same brand?
Not necessarily, but they do need a supported integration. We check compatibility at survey so you are not sold two systems that will never talk to each other.
How long should we keep the footage?
Only as long as you have a justified need. Many sites settle on 30 days. Whatever you choose should be written down in your policy and actually enforced by the recorder.
How long does an access control system take to install?
A single door is normally half a day to a day. A typical 8 to 12 door commercial system takes two to four days on site, followed by a commissioning visit to load users, set access levels and hand over. Larger sites are phased so the building stays secure throughout.
Do you work on systems installed by someone else?
Yes. We repair, service and extend all common makes of access control, door entry and intercom, whoever installed them. If a system is genuinely beyond economic repair we will say so and show you the numbers for both options.
Does the door have to unlock when the fire alarm sounds?
On a designated escape route, yes. The locking must fail safe and release on alarm, free mechanical egress must be maintained, and every maglocked escape door needs a green emergency break-glass release. This is a life-safety requirement and we test it with the fire alarm at commissioning.
