Hi My mother had her home broken into and robbed yesterday. We need an threat assessment done on the house and recommendations on what to combat the vulnerabilities with. There is a CCTV but I don't think the DVR is working correctly, but also want to look at AI CCTV with notifications, beams, electric fencing, motion light detectors, etc. We will also be moving back to Kleinbosch in October so will also be looking for the same for our house then. Regards &
Need a quote on 4 and 8 camera's for a freestanding house. I'm working out if it's within my budget to have a system installed. I understand that site visits may be required but atleast if I can have an idea on what it could cost between the 4 and 8 camera systems. Camera's will be around 5 - 10m away from where I need the dvr installed. Please include harddrive price as well but exclude a screen. I will be able to communicate via email faster than a phone call.

Good day, I need assistance in the repair of a plug socket. My wife came home and noticed that the plug had burnt at the socket (see photos attached). Together with this, I want to check if my electrical components are safe as we have experienced trips and I am not sure if the breakers I have are working properly.
I currently have a wired DSC system, with 32 Zones. The wireless receiver broke and is now giving issues. I'm looking for something with about 24 zones, (8 PIR sensors, 4 Door Sensors and 11 beams - I have 3 that can be reused). Preferably wireless that allows for different partitions and can be armed via remote. Please let me know what's possible.
I need a quotation to instal an alarm system. I do have an alarm system. The wires were cut when I did renovations. I am informed that ours is outdated and that it will be difficult to obtain parts if something breaks. The quote I received is ridiculously high. So I am looking for something that's reasonable.
Hi there My domestic worker has recently got electricity to her home in Bossiesgif (next to the industrial area). We fought with the municipality to get it installed but now I realise she has a meter but she is running an extension from her meter to her room and I am concerned she may not have a proper DB board and plug set up. I would hate for her power to short circuit or a fire to start. I'd like to get a ready board with 4 plugs and a light installed for her. Something like the attached. Would you be able to assist with setting this up in an informal settlement? Thanks for your help!
