Where cameras go on a Stoke Newington home
Tap a spot to see what each camera covers. Most Stoke Newington homes need two to four.
Front door
The most useful camera on any home. It records everyone who comes to the door, including parcel deliveries, and shows faces clearly.
How we fit itWe fit it high enough to be out of reach, angled down the path so faces are clear, not the tops of heads.
Drive or parking space
Covers your car and the front of the house. A wide-angle camera can take in the drive, the gate and the pavement edge.
How we fit itWe aim it at your own space, not the whole street, and set alerts so your phone tells you when someone walks up to the car.
Side passage or gate
Side returns and gates are the usual way into a back garden. A camera here catches anyone going round the back.
How we fit itWe fit a camera looking along the passage, with night vision, and can add a light that comes on with movement.
Back garden and doors
Covers patio doors, sheds and bikes. Back doors are where most break-ins start.
How we fit itWe place it to take in the whole garden and the back doors, and mask out neighbours’ gardens so you only record your own.
Home security in Stoke Newington
Many houses near Clissold Park are split into flats with a shared front door. A video doorbell or one shared camera covers the entrance, and ground-floor flats often add a camera on the garden.

Repairing cameras and recorders in Stoke Newington
Stoke Newington has many Victorian houses, flat conversions and independent shops on Church Street. We often repair cameras on flat conversions where one owner manages the system, and shop systems where an old recorder has started failing. We keep cameras small and neat to suit the houses.
Camera offline
Usual cause: Power or video has stopped reaching it. Usually a corroded joint, a chewed cable or a failed power supply.
What we doWe trace the cable from the recorder to the camera, fix the break and check the picture before the ladders come down.
No night picture
Usual cause: Infrared LEDs fade with age, and a spider’s web or a wall close by can bounce the light straight back into the lens.
What we doWe clear the lens, re-angle or move the camera, and replace it if the infrared has gone.
App won’t connect
Usual cause: A new router, a changed Wi-Fi password, a new phone or an app that needs updating.
What we doWe reconnect the recorder to your network, update its software and the app, and test viewing at home and on mobile data.
Something else? We repair Hikvision, Dahua, Ring and Ezviz kit. WhatsApp the CCTV team a photo of the fault or call 020 8226 4914.
How long will your Stoke Newington cameras keep footage?
More cameras and sharper pictures fill a drive faster. Change the settings to see roughly how many days you would have.
These are rough figures for modern H.265 recorders. A busy road or trees moving in the wind use more space than a quiet hallway, so we check the real figure on your recorder before we leave.
28 days of footage
About four weeks. That is what most of our customers keep.
Check your Stoke Newington cameras from anywhere
Once your cameras are in, or your old system is working again, you can see your Stoke Newington home or business live from your phone.
HD cameras with night vision, a recorder that keeps weeks of footage, and an app for your phone. You get alerts when someone is on your drive or in your garden, and can share access with your family.

If yours isn't here, call or WhatsApp our CCTV team. Advice is free.
Can flats in our Stoke Newington house share one camera?
Yes, if everyone agrees. We fit one camera at the shared door and give each flat its own app login, so you split the cost and nobody needs a separate doorbell.
Can you fit a doorbell camera on a Stoke Newington Victorian front door?
Yes. We can fit a slim doorbell that suits a period door, wired where there is power or battery-powered where there is not, and set it to ring your phone.
Do you cover Stamford Hill and Clissold Park?
Yes. We cover all of N16, including Stamford Hill and the streets around Clissold Park and Abney Park.
Can I put a camera on my Stoke Newington flat’s shared entrance?
Only with the other owners’ agreement. Once agreed, we fit one camera at the door and give each flat app access, so the cost and the view are shared.
My Church Street shop recorder keeps freezing. Can you fix it?
Yes. A freezing recorder usually has a failing hard drive or is overheating. We replace the drive or the recorder and give it space to stay cool.
Can you repair a camera system the previous owner left in my Stoke Newington house?
Yes. We reset the recorder to your own login, test every camera and repair or replace any that have failed, so the system is fully yours.
