CCTV Installers in Durban — HD Cameras With Remote Viewing
Durban DSTV Installers designs and fits HD CCTV camera systems for homes, businesses and estates across Durban, with DVR recording and remote viewing on your phone. Installations start from around R2,500 after a free site assessment.
CCTV has become a baseline expectation for Durban homes and businesses, not an add-on. As accredited installers with over a decade of experience running cable through Durban's older brick homes and newer estate builds alike, we plan camera placement around your property's actual weak points rather than fitting cameras in the same four spots on every job.
How Our CCTV Installation Process Works
- Free site assessment — we walk the property to identify entry points, blind spots and ideal camera height/angle for each zone.
- System design — we recommend camera count, resolution and night-vision range suited to your budget and property size.
- Cabling and mounting — cameras and cabling are fitted with weatherproofing appropriate for Durban's humidity and coastal air.
- DVR/NVR setup and app configuration — recorder is configured for continuous or motion-triggered recording, and the mobile app is set up on your phone before we leave.
- Handover walkthrough — we show you how to review footage, export clips and manage user access.
Residential, Business & Estate CCTV
Freestanding homes typically need 4 to 6 cameras covering the driveway, main entrance and garden perimeter. Retail and commercial premises often add internal cameras over till points and stock areas alongside external coverage. For complexes and estates, we design shared camera networks that cover common areas, gates and parking, feeding into a central monitoring point managed by the body corporate or estate management — see our communal installations page for bulk-property CCTV.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CCTV installation cost in Durban?
A basic 4-camera HD CCTV system with DVR and remote phone viewing starts from around R2,500 installed, including cabling and setup. Larger 8-camera systems, night-vision coverage for bigger properties, and estate-scale installations are quoted after a free site assessment.
Can I view my CCTV cameras on my phone?
Yes, every system we install is configured with a mobile app so you can view live footage and playback recordings from anywhere with an internet connection, on both Android and iOS.
How many cameras do I need for my home?
Most freestanding homes are well covered with 4 cameras positioned at the main entrance, driveway, back garden and a side access point. Larger properties, corner stands, or homes with multiple entry points typically need 6 to 8 cameras. We recommend exact placement during a free site visit.
Do your cameras work at night?
Yes, we install cameras with infrared or full-colour night vision so footage stays usable after dark, which is when most break-in attempts occur.
Can CCTV be added to an existing electric fence or alarm system?
Yes, we can integrate a new CCTV installation with an existing electric fence or alarm setup so all your security components are monitored from one place.
