CCTV Installers & Security Systems in Braintree







CCTV Installation Services in Braintree

Braintree sits a short drive from our base at Wakes Colne, so the district is familiar ground for our team. I-HT’s CCTV installers work across Braintree for homeowners, business parks and village shops. We design every CCTV security system around the property, from a three-camera home set-up to a full site with number plate recognition.

Each job starts with a free site survey and a quotation you can understand.

CCTV Installers in Braintree

Our installers are employed by I-HT, trained to current SSAIB standards and DBS checked. We’re Safe Contractor approved. You can lease or purchase your system, and we’ll build it to your budget.

Home CCTV Installation in Braintree

Great Notley’s newer estates, Bocking’s older streets and the villages out towards Halstead all need different approaches. On a new-build, the priority is clean cable routes that don’t spoil the finish. On an older house, it’s often the side passage and garden gate nobody can see from the road.

We cover:

  • Front doors, drives and vehicles
  • Gardens, garages, sheds and side access

CCTV for Village Shops and Rural Businesses

Village businesses often act as the shop, the post office and the petrol station at once. Westrope Motors in Steeple Bumpstead, a couple of miles south of Haverhill, is exactly that. We first installed CCTV there in 2012. In 2021 the owners asked us to upgrade.

The brief was full coverage of the forecourt, clear enough to identify people and vehicles. We installed 3 external cameras and 8 internal cameras across the shop floor and post office, plus a second monitor by the serving counter so staff can watch the pumps and the shop from the till.

“I was very satisfied with the new system and the team of engineers that carried out the installation.”

For farms and rural yards further out, wireless bridges link distant buildings back to the recorder, and Starlight cameras cope with the lack of street lighting.

Business Parks and Industrial Estates in Braintree

Skyline 120 at Great Notley, Horizon 120 beside the A131 and the Springwood Industrial Estate hold warehouses, trade counters, offices and logistics firms. Sites with loading docks and large yards need perimeter detection and a record of vehicle movements. Number plate recognition at the entrance logs every plate with a date and time.

CCTV Maintenance and Upgrades

Older systems lose picture quality and storage fills up faster than you’d think. We maintain existing I-HT systems and can upgrade them when the technology moves on, as we did at Westrope Motors nine years after the first install.

This company is the only company I would use for all my home security and air con requirements. I have had three air con units fitted. The installation team go to great lengths to minimise disruption and to clean up after themselves. They do not leave until the customer is happy with the installation and that the customer knows how it works. Booking a service is easy and the staff are Polite and knowledgeable. Customer service is a priority for this company. Well done and thank you.

We recently had a new camera and alarm system installed by I-HT in our office. The service was excellent and the install and set up was done in less than an hour. I can control everything from my phone which is fantastic. I would highly recommend I-HT.

Excellent company to work with. We have recently upgraded our CCTV with I-HTT as we were happy with the service we received with our original equipment they provided. If ever we have a problem which is usually operator error rather than the equipment we have made a call and the response and help is arranged very quickly, either over the phone or a technician comes to our premises. As a company we have no negatives. It's always a relief when a company offers a service and they actually meet there promises. I would definitely recommend.

We stumbled across I-HT CCTV a few years ago now and, quite simply, have never looked back! Professional advice and support ensuring you get the best product possible! I have never known a Company who are so committed to being customer-focused and ensuring that their customers are happy. Whether it be the Installation Team or Admin Team, their polite, professional service is second to none. As our Company has grown, I-HT has become and integral part of our safety & security arsenal - I really have no idea how we managed before them. Thank you Lee & Team for all you do in keeping our wheels rolling!
