Trust really goes a long way if you have the correct installer! 

In an era where home security is of utmost importance, the installation of security cameras has become a common practice for many homeowners. However, there are certain legal and ethical considerations that one must bear in mind before deploying these surveillance devices. One critical aspect to be aware of is the involvement of registered security firms. This article explores the significance of registered firms in the installation of CCTV cameras and the implications of non-compliance with the law.

Potential Legal Implications of CCTV Surveillance

Installing CCTV cameras on private property may raise concerns related to privacy laws and potential infringement on neighbouring properties. Under the privacy law, if security cameras are angled in a way that captures footage of a neighbour's yard or driveway, complaints about invasion of privacy could arise.

When disputes escalate to legal proceedings, one crucial factor that courts may consider is the authenticity of the installation process. A pertinent question that may be asked is, "Who performed the installation of the security hardware and firmware for your home?" The responsibility falls on the property owner to ensure that the installation is carried out by a reputable entity, well-versed in security regulations, including privacy laws.

The Importance of Registered Firms!

Registered security firms play a significant role in ensuring that CCTV installations adhere to proper guidelines and legal requirements. These firms undergo stringent checks and balances, demonstrating their commitment to professionalism and compliance with industry standards. Engaging with such firms provides homeowners with the assurance that their security systems are being installed by trained experts.

Beware of Unregistered Self named Contractors!

Opting for cheaper, non-registered contractors to install security cameras can lead to potential problems down the line. In case of disputes or legal issues, these contractors might not have the necessary expertise or understanding of the laws governing security installations. This can place you the homeowner in a precarious position, as they may have difficulty proving that the installation was performed by a competent and reputable entity.

SAPAC`s Afterthought!

CCTV cameras are valuable tools in enhancing home security, but their installation must be approached with diligence and extreme care. Only registered security firms can ensure that the correct professionals with the necessary expertise handle your installation, reducing your risk of legal issues related to privacy and compliance. Homeowners are encouraged to refrain from engaging unregistered contractors and instead seek assistance from reputable sources like SAPAC. By prioritizing the proper installation of security systems, homeowners can safeguard their properties while respecting the privacy rights of others. Remember, CCTV monitoring is acceptable and welcomed in public places, but it is essential to ensure that your home surveillance complies with the law and respects personal privacy.


Thinking that you are covered in terms of your legal liability with regards to a self named contractor that installs your system. Is a risk that you either are willing to take alone. Or you are trying to mitigate financial factors in an incorrect matter. Remember, risk management is only as good as with the type of experts you surround yourself with. Not one man can perform risk management alone and surely not with someone that does not understand the inherent risks they are placing you in. Especially with an incorrect decision.

Use registered Security Firms!
