We make selecting the right CCTV system easy.

Choosing the right CCTV video surveillance system is easier than you may think. Metro Alarm & Lock will walk you through the basics and help you make choices based on our years of experience and the needs of your business. We’ll even come to you to demonstrate various solutions  — for free.

Business security cameras come in both color and black and white. At one time, black and white cameras were less expensive and worked better in low light situations. Today, color security cameras are quite competitive in price and many can switch to black and white mode in low light conditions. The excellent definition of color cameras make them a quality choice for most security needs.

Format refers to the size of the image processor in the camera, with 1/4″ and 1/3″ as the most common formats for most surveillance cameras. This format size meets the needs of most business security applications.

The lens determines image width and the amount of light let in, and varies depending on the type of camera you choose. Lens types include:

  • Fixed focal length= offers only one set field of view and the least expensive
  • Variable focal length/ zoom= offer greater flexibility in adjusting your image’s field of view
  • Motorized zoom= offers the ability to control your cameras remotely by zooming in for detail, only useful if the system is manned at all times, and the most expensive

Camera housing needs vary, as well—indoor cameras provide security with concealment, while outdoor cameras need protection from the elements.

Whether you are seeking high-end video surveillance, wired or wireless systems, or a simple one-camera system, we are here to guide you in choosing the most effective and appropriate closed-circuit video monitoring system.
