Surveillance Zone has been installing and servicing security systems in Singapore since 2003.

Every job is done by our own certified in-house installers, using genuine Hikvision and Dahua equipment.

Service 01

CCTV Installation Singapore

Our flagship service. We install HD, 4K and ColorVu full-colour night vision systems for HDB flats, condominiums, landed homes, offices, shops and industrial premises. Every job starts with a free on-site survey, so camera count and positions come from what your property needs, not a package picked over the phone.

Placement matters more than megapixels. A 4K camera at the wrong angle gives a clear picture of the top of someone's head. Night performance is the other thing cheap systems get wrong: standard infrared switches to black and white after dark, showing that something happened but not what colour shirt or car.

  • Professional site survey and camera placement
  • HD, 4K and ColorVu full-colour night vision
  • Neat, concealed cabling
  • Mobile and remote viewing setup
  • HDB and condo compliant installation
  • Genuine, warrantied Hikvision and Dahua

CCTV Maintenance Singapore, Any Brand

CCTV monitoring screens showing live security camera footage

A camera that is powered on is not the same as a camera that is recording. Most CCTV failures are silent, and the owner finds out on the day the footage is actually needed.

We service, repair and upgrade existing systems of any brand, whoever installed them. Hard drives are consumable parts and a recorder writes continuously, so storage failure is a question of when. Dirty domes bloom infrared glare back into the lens at night, and remote viewing breaks when a router changes and nobody reconnects the recorder.

  • System health checks and cleaning
  • Fault diagnosis and repair
  • Storage and NVR upgrades
  • Camera resolution upgrades
  • Firmware and remote-access fixes

Door Access System Singapore

CCTV tells you what happened. Door access control decides who gets in at all. We install and configure access systems for offices, condominiums and restricted areas, from proximity card and PIN readers to facial-recognition terminals.

Choosing a credential is a trade-off. Cards are cheap to issue but can be lent or lost. PIN codes cost nothing but get passed around. Fingerprint readers tie access to the person. Facial recognition is hands-free and fast, which suits busy lobbies. The log is what pays for itself: a record of who entered and when settles disputes about after-hours entry.

  • Proximity card and PIN readers
  • Facial-recognition access (Dahua)
  • Biometric and fingerprint options
  • Integration with existing gates
  • Visitor and staff access logs

CCTV Rental Singapore

Not every site needs a permanent installation. For events, renovations, construction sites and temporary premises, buying a system that gets pulled out in six weeks makes no sense. Our rental is fully managed with 4, 8 and 16-camera setups: we install it and we come back and remove it, with live remote monitoring included.

  • Flexible 4, 8 and 16-camera setups
  • Fully managed, we install and remove
  • Live remote monitoring
  • No long-term commitment
Choosing

How to Choose Camera Type and Placement

Camera shape is a functional choice. Domes sit flush, resist knocks and hide which way they aim, which suits corridors. Bullets are visible, useful when you want the camera itself to deter, and suit long fixed views along a driveway.

Resolution is only half the picture. What makes footage usable for identification is how many pixels land on a face, which depends on resolution, field of view and distance together. A wide camera watching a whole car park shows movement, not identities.

  • Cover entry points first: main door, gate, back door, car park
  • Pair a wide overview camera with a tight camera at the choke point
  • Mount out of reach but low enough to capture faces
  • Aim across an entrance, not into direct backlight
  • Point cameras at your own property, not a neighbour's
Compliance

HDB CCTV Installation, Condos and Compliance

Where you live changes what you are allowed to do, so check before the drilling starts. Inside your own HDB flat is your business. A camera facing the common corridor is different, because the corridor is common property. You generally need permission from HDB and your Town Council, and conditions differ between towns. For condos, anything outside your unit normally needs MCST approval.

Recording brings data obligations too. Footage of identifiable people is personal data, so PDPA obligations apply to how you collect, use, secure and retain it. Security work is also a regulated trade here, and installers of certain systems must be licensed. We are an SPF-Registered Security Service Provider using our own certified in-house installers.

Process

What the Installation Process Looks Like

It starts with a free on-site survey, no obligation. We walk the property, look at entry points, sightlines, lighting and where the recorder and power can sit, and confirm cable routes. That survey turns an indicative package price into a firm quotation, because cabling distance and mounting conditions are the variables.

On installation day the team mounts the cameras, conceals the cabling, configures the recorder and storage, then aims each camera on a live view rather than by eye from the ladder. Installation is usually completed within the week.

  • Free on-site survey, no obligation
  • Fixed quotation after the survey
  • Mounting, concealed cabling, recorder and storage setup
  • Phone and remote viewing setup, plus handover
  • Usually completed within the week
Pricing

CCTV Installation Cost: What Moves the Price

Our packages are before GST and include supply, installation, setup and 1TB of surveillance storage. Hikvision starts from $550 for one camera, $750 for two, $850 for three and $950 for four. Dahua starts from $650, $900, $1,100 and $1,300 for the same counts.

Those are from-prices for standard installations, and what changes them is mostly cabling and access. Four cameras in a compact flat with the recorder close by is a different day's work from four across a landed house with long runs and external trunking. Holding more days of footage needs more storage, since camera count and resolution decide how fast a drive fills.

Questions

CCTV services in Singapore — your questions answered

How much does CCTV installation cost in Singapore?
Our Hikvision packages start from $550 for one camera, $750 for two, $850 for three and $950 for four. Dahua starts from $650, $900, $1,100 and $1,300 for the same camera counts. All prices are before GST and include supply, installation, setup and 1TB of storage. Cabling distance and mounting access affect the final figure, which is why we confirm the price after a free site survey.
Can I install CCTV outside my HDB flat?
Inside your own unit is your own decision. A camera facing the common corridor is different, because the corridor is common property, so you generally need permission from HDB and your Town Council first. Conditions vary between towns, so check with your Town Council before fixing a position. We install to those requirements and can discuss placement options with you during the free survey.
How long does CCTV installation take?
Installation is usually completed within the week. The survey comes first so we can confirm camera positions, cable routes and where the recorder sits, then the installation itself is usually one visit for homes and small offices. Larger premises with long cable runs take longer. If your building or Town Council needs to approve mounting positions, allow extra time for that approval.
Do you service CCTV installed by another company?
Yes. Our maintenance and upgrade service covers any brand, whoever installed it. That includes system health checks and cleaning, fault diagnosis and repair, storage and NVR upgrades, camera resolution upgrades, and firmware and remote-access fixes. If your recorder has stopped recording, remote viewing died after a router change, or the picture has gone hazy at night, those are common and fixable.
Hikvision or Dahua, which is better?
Both are established brands and we supply only genuine, warrantied units, never grey-market. The practical difference is the models in each package. Our Hikvision packages use 2MP HD cameras with audio and day/night switching. Our Dahua packages use smart dual-light cameras with human detection and full-colour night vision. If colour detail after dark matters for your driveway or shopfront, that points one way. We will recommend based on the survey.
How many CCTV cameras do I need for my house?
Start with entry points rather than a number. For most homes that means the main door, the back or service door, the gate and the driveway. Cover those first, then add cameras for blind spots such as side walkways or a rear boundary. Our packages run from one to four cameras, and larger properties are quoted after the survey.
How long can the system record before it overwrites?
Retention depends on three things together: how many cameras record, what resolution and frame rate they record at, and how big the hard drive is. More cameras at higher resolution fill a drive faster. Our packages include 1TB of surveillance storage, and if you need more days of footage we can specify a larger drive. We set the recording and overwrite settings with you at handover.
Do I need approval for CCTV in a condo?
Inside your own unit is generally your call. Anything mounted outside the unit or drilled into common structure normally needs approval from the MCST, since those areas are managed common property. Many estates also set their own contractor requirements and permitted working hours. Check with your management office first, and we will install to whatever conditions they set.
Are there rules about recording people on CCTV?
Footage that captures identifiable people is personal data, so PDPA obligations apply to how you collect, use, secure and retain it. In a business setting that generally means giving notice that recording takes place, limiting who can view footage, not keeping recordings longer than needed, and securing remote access with a strong password instead of the factory default.
Can I rent CCTV instead of buying?
Yes. CCTV rental suits events, renovations, construction sites and temporary premises where a permanent system makes no sense. We offer fully-managed 4, 8 and 16-camera setups, install and remove them for you, and include live remote monitoring so you can watch from a phone. There is no long-term commitment, and rental is quoted on request, so tell us the site and duration.
