Eltham CCTV & Sensor Lighting Upgrade: A Safer Home for the Christmas Season

CCTV & Sensor Floodlight Upgrade in Eltham: Ready for a Safe Christmas

A Smart Security Refresh Before the Festive Break

With Christmas fast approaching, our team was called out to Eltham to help a local family feel safer heading into the holiday season. They wanted better visibility around the home, stronger coverage at entry points and a reliable CCTV system they could monitor remotely while away.

This upgrade combined a high-quality Dahua CCTV system with fresh motion-sensor lighting — a simple but powerful combo for year-round security.

🔧 CCTV Installation: Clear, Reliable Protection Day and Night

We supplied and installed a Dahua CCTV system featuring two 6MP turret cameras positioned to cover the home’s key access areas:

  • Front porch – monitoring the entry and driveway

  • Alfresco and deck area – keeping an eye on the rear of the home

All cabling was neatly run using Cat6 data cable, with the cameras connected back to a Dahua 8-channel NVR installed in the study.

Once set up, the system was configured for remote viewing on the homeowner’s phones, tablets and desktop — perfect for peace of mind when travelling or hosting guests.

The full installation was tested and commissioned.

💡 Sensor Floodlights for Safer Nights

To boost outdoor visibility, we swapped out two old fittings for Voltex double LED floodlights with motion sensors:

  • One positioned at the front door

  • One installed by the laundry door

These lights now activate automatically when they detect movement, brightening walkways, discouraging unwanted activity and giving the family extra peace of mind after dark.

🎄 Why Security Matters Even More at Christmas

The lead-up to Christmas is one of the busiest times for home break-ins and insurance claims. Many families are:

  • Travelling

  • Hosting large gatherings

  • Receiving parcels

  • Spending more time away from home

  • Using outdoor spaces more often

A CCTV + sensor lighting combo is one of the easiest ways to:

✔ Deter intruders

✔ Improve night-time visibility

✔ Monitor your home while you’re away

✔ Protect deliveries

✔ Reduce blind spots around the home

Even simple upgrades make a huge difference during this high-traffic season.
