CCTV Cameras

[Mr Mackay]

Thats interesting that you need to notify the ICO what you are using the cameras for !!
We have a camera on the side of the house that overlooks the road (plus one in calving pen and one in yard) And a largish red CCTV warning notice under it ,cameras 20 ft up to look over field too.
I was asked by a policeman a few yrs ago if he could view the CCTV records from about 6 weeks previous ,but had to inform him they overwrite after a month on the hard drive !!
Ours are analogue anyway , so number plates arent clear enough , but I am waiting for someoene to say I am infringing their human rights or summat by recording the traffic too !!

As far as i am aware is if you want to provide the footage to the police there has to be signs etc

so does that apply to dash cams

Had one of our vehicles
stolen at 6AM This morning

Nissan Qashqai in Grey

EU15 PFE

Essex

CCTV just picked them up driving out

cant use cctv as evidence if no sign up

Rather than cameras, I wish it was legal to put a sign up to say “You are trespassing. If you are thinking about stealing anything you may be seriously injured from here” then devise any system you like to hurt the tossers.

our local car dealership had a forecourt which could be browsed out of hours. There were cameras everywhere and a recorded message linked to motion detectors that said basically that, just a bit more politely, just without the trespassing.

Thats one thing is hard to do here is drive out unless you have the code for the electric gate and they have tried to ram it but the design of it put a stop to that
They jump the boundary ditch from our neighbours and thought they could get out.
The number of people who come here and ask as they are leaving does the gate open automatically and when told no seem suppriced

You could have sign up but they did not see it

 

[kiwi pom]

We now have CCTV cameras about do we have to or is best to have signs saying there are cameras about

I'd just put a sign at the gate saying, property under cctv surveillance then try to hide the cameras a bit.
The sign might even put a few off.

Why the hell not? Because if you had a sign up they would have worn a balaclava, so that means you weren't playing fair?

Well the twunts came back to my place this morning to borrow the JCB! Took it down to local petrol station to load up the cash machine. Apparently they had slashed the tyres on all the police cars in the local cop shop car park. CCTV at the police station had three figures, one dressed in grey and two in black, so that’s going to be useful?

 

[MrNoo]

Heard about this on the local Rural watch whatsapp group, seems never ending around here at the moment, cash machines, Audi RS's and Golf R's, deer poaching and catapulting pheasants etc etc.

Now if you’d seen ‘Townyfile’ the other week’ this wouldn’t of happened, as they were ‘indirectly’ blaming farmers for not securing their machines better!!!
Saw the mess as I drove thru Stow early sat morning :-/

Have you got any remote alarm or CCTV installed yet?

I’d install

1. A break-beam perimeter sensor
2. a remote SMS/alerting alarm with a *pair* of 127dB master blaster klaxon sirens & some high power strobe lights
3. A couple of CCTV cameras with off site recording and motion detection.

With luck you will deafen, blind and hopefully scare them off and perhaps capture some video evidence.

No I’ve had a couple of companies look at the site but we have been to busy to get a system in place . Now it’s got be a priority. We have some masters blasters , they are bloody loud and give me an instant headache .

 

[Fendt516profi]

How about some removable bollards

 

[Bob lincs]

We’re having fabricated x2 6m x 2m 100x100 box frames that are cladded in 6mm steel plate that drop in channels welded to the steelwork either side of the doors . We will have to lift them out with the Teleporter when we need access. What a feckin ball ache .

 

[Dman2]

Why not have some real heavy duty RSJs barriers which can be swung out the way when access needed then locked into place when not
This type of thing

Trouble with that is if you reversed a car into it you would still have a bent door . 2.5 ton of concrete didn’t stop them .
