Security cameras without a monthly subscription

Many camera systems tie you to a monthly fee and store your footage in someone else’s cloud. Ours do not. You pay once, the footage stays on your own recorder, and it stays your property. No forced fees, no cloud that holds your video, no lock-in.

  • Pay once
  • Own your footage
  • Local recording
  • No cloud lock-in
  • Works for years

Why it matters

Your footage should belong to you

A subscription model sounds convenient until you realise the footage lives in a cloud you do not control, behind a fee you cannot stop paying without losing access. Cancel, and your history can vanish. That is not ownership.

We store recording locally on a recorder in your home or premises. You watch live and play back from an app, you keep as much history as your storage allows, and nothing depends on a monthly payment. If you ever want remote monitoring on top, that is your choice, never a condition.

An honest planNo overselling. We tell you what is worth doing now and what can wait.
One clear proposalA fixed all-in price with the hardware and the work in it, no surprises afterwards.

Our story

Since 1999, and still hands-on

We started installing security in 1999, and we never stopped caring about the details. Today we complete around 2,000 installations a year, and we still do the work with our own engineers, not subcontractors. The person who advises you is part of the same team that shows up at your door.

That matters, because a camera on a wall is easy; a system that genuinely protects you is a craft. We buy quality materials, we finish cabling so you never see it, and when the standard product will not do, we spray cameras to colour in our own spray booth. Little of that shows on the invoice, but all of it shows in the result.

And we keep everything under one roof: cameras, alarm, video intercom, WiFi, network and, when needed, electrical work. One team that understands how it all fits together, and stays reachable long after handover.

Frequently asked

Questions about subscription-free cameras

How can there be no subscription?

Because we record locally. The footage is stored on a recorder you own, in your building, so there is no cloud service to charge you a monthly fee. You pay for the system once.

Where is my footage stored?

On your own recorder (an NVR) in your home or premises. It stays your property, and how much history you keep depends on the storage we fit.

Can I still watch from my phone?

Yes, at no extra cost. Live view and playback work through an app on your phone, tablet or computer, from anywhere.

What if I want professional monitoring?

You can add it if you want, but it is optional. The base system works fully without any subscription or monitoring contract.

Is local storage safe?

Yes. We set it up securely and can advise on backup. Unlike a cloud-only service, no external provider can lock you out or lose your access.
