The challenge

The home was relying on ageing analogue CCTV with patchy coverage of the main entrance, car park and corridors. Staff had no way to verify visitors at the door from reception, and recordings were unreliable when needed for incident review.

Our approach

Nova surveyed every site in a single day, agreed camera positions with the management team, and phased the install over three weeks so residents were never disturbed. Old cabling was reused where possible to keep disruption and cost down.

The outcome

Full IP CCTV coverage across all four sites, central recording with 30-day retention, and access control on the main entrances. Reception staff can now verify visitors before unlocking the door, and incident review takes minutes instead of hours.

Nova Security made the upgrade painless. Their team worked around our residents and finished on time, and we now have proper coverage across every entrance.
