Fixed CCTV / Hardwired CCTV

Clearway installs fixed CCTV systems that help security teams continuoulsy monitor premises, detect crime, and maintain surveillance across commercial buildings, industrial sites, and public-facing environments. Fixed CCTV systems are permanent, hardwired, and non-moving cameras designed for continuous, long-term monitoring of specific locations like entrances, perimeters, and commercial sites.

Professional wired CCTV systems are an ideal way of keeping your property protected continuously. Hardwired CCTV installation involves running dedicated cables (Ethernet for IP, Coaxial for Analogue) from cameras to a central DVR/NVR for reliable, 24/7 surveillance. No matter if you want to prevent unauthorised access and trespassing, vandalism, theft or any other illegal activity, fixed CCTV systems help ensure your organisation is protected continuously.

Durable Fixed CCTV Systems

Unlike temporary or mobile solutions, fixed CCTV offers permanent, reliable coverage of key entry points, perimeters and high-risk areas. A well-positioned, visible camera network acts as a powerful deterrent against theft, vandalism and break-ins, while also giving staff, visitors and customers greater peace of mind. 

And if an incident does occur, you’ll have clear, tamper-proof footage to support investigations and insurance claims. They give the people in and around your premises a sense of security. If something does go wrong, there will be a record of what happens.

Key Benefits of Hardwired Security Cameras

  • Continuous 24/7 recording linked to mains power
  • Visible deterrent to actively prevent incidents
  • Clear, tamper-proof footage for investigations and insurance claims
  • Long-term, reliable protection with minimal intervention
  • Peace of mind for staff, visitors and stakeholders
  • CCTV systems designed to scale as sites expand
  • Compliance-ready CCTV with professional monitoring

Our Hardwired CCTV Systems and Services

Fixed CCTV systems are designed for long-term use and are wired into the building, covering key points of your premises for continual recording and monitoring.

Network/IP CCTV Cameras

These cameras communicate over the internet with footage stored on network video recorders (NVRs) or via secure software. IP cameras are easier to install because they don’t require a dedicated cable to send footage.

Find out more about our IP Cameras.

Dome CCTV cameras

These are a common type of CCTV camera and are effective visual deterrents due to their dome shape, which conceals the camera’s direction from would-be vandals or intruders. We also offer speed dome cameras, which have additional zoom, tilt and pan functions to aid in CCTV monitoring.

Bullet CCTV cameras

Often used for long-distance viewing and can be affixed to walls or ceilings, indoors or outdoors. They are waterproof and have a protective covering to prevent dirt and other debris from affecting the clarity of the footage.

C-Mount CCTV

C-Mount CCTV lenses are detachable, making them adaptable for different surveillance environments and typically used for distances of 35-40ft.

PTZ Pan Tilt & Zoom Cameras

These cameras have wide-ranging, pan, tilt and zoom functionality and are controlled remotely by an operator in a control room.

Day/Night CCTV Cameras

Best used for capturing video in varying and changeable lighting conditions, and are best suited to outdoor environments.

Infrared/Night Vision CCTV Cameras

Suitable for situations where capturing clear footage in limited or zero visibility conditions is crucial.

Thermal CCTV Cameras

This type of CCTV can show objects emitting heat that are not visible to the naked eye or to a traditional CCTV camera. This can include overheating or faulty machinery, or people in low light conditions or behind other objects. This CCTV is also ideal for identifying people with a fever, which is crucial in the control of infectious diseases.

    If you need to prevent the threat of unauthorised entry, arson, fly-tipping, vandalism, theft or any other criminal activity, fixed CCTV systems are there to ensure your site or building is protected from day one. Are you experiencing any of the following issue?

    1. You Need a Range of Commercial-Grade Cameras With Various Functions

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Got a question about our site security? Read our frequently asked questions.

    Is Fixed CCTV Better Than Wireless CCTV?

    Many businesses have to decide whether fixed CCTV cameras or temporary CCTV would be better for them, so what’s the difference?

    Temporary CCTV systems, on the other hand, are commonly for shorter-term use. They are either battery or solar-powered and are motion-activated. Because of their flexibility, they are often used for events such as festivals, construction sites, and remote working environments, where reliable access to power is limited or unavailable. In these instances, temporary CCTV is an excellent solution for keeping your premises secure despite the challenging environment.

    However, businesses of all kinds can use temporary CCTV cameras, which offer the flexibility of temporary CCTV, provided they are willing to compromise on motion-activated-only operation.

    Fixed CCTV is the ideal choice for businesses making a long-term investment in the security of their premises, as well as for those that would benefit from the always-on nature of fixed CCTV cameras.

    Does Fixed CCTV Record Continuously or Only on Motion?

    Both! Hardwired CCTV systems can be programmed to record 24/7, continuously collecting data, or to activate when movement is detected, anywhere within the premises or in specific areas or zones.

    How Long Is CCTV Footage Stored?

    The right answer may depend on whether CCTV data is relevant to an ongoing investigation or complaint, and we can offer advice around data protection compliance and setting clear CCTV policies to ensure footage is deleted as appropriate. In most cases, businesses retain captures for up to 90 days unless they are required as evidence. Read more about CCTV storage rules here.

    Can Fixed CCTV Be Monitored 24/7 By an ARC?

    Of course. Our ARC is an NSI Gold Cat II-accredited facility and is operational around the clock, 365 days a year.

    Is Monitored CCTV Required for Insurance Compliance?

    In many cases, yes, insurers will require clients to provide evidence that their CCTV is continuously monitored, ensuring there is minimal risk of a live incident going undetected.

    This also gives your business the peace of mind that your security solution is backed by the very highest-level monitoring. This standard has been achieved through our quick and effective responses to triggered alarms. They are immediately assessed to disqualify false alarms, with security and emergency services contacted and dispatched to the location if necessary.

    Will Fixed CCTV Systems Meet GDPR and ICO Requirements?

    Regulatory compliance is a key requirement, and we ensure that the installation, operation, management, and maintenance of your surveillance system are in full adherence.

    That may include installing signage, creating data management policies, registering with the ICO, and appointing a responsible party to supervise data handling and access.

    Can CCTV Be Integrated With Alarms, Access Controls or Fire Systems?

    Absolutely. CCTV cameras can enhance the efficiency of other security assets, such as verifying the cause of an alarm to eliminate false positives, or working alongside access controls to lift gates and open security doors when the credentials or identity of an individual or vehicle have been approved.
