Pricing guide

Costs are mainly driven by labour hours, the regional callout fee and the quality of hardware chosen. Monitored or integrated systems typically require extra labour and higher‑spec materials for commissioning and testing, making them more complex than standard upgrades. After‑hours attendance, travel, permits or specialist removal can also increase the final scope, and ongoing monitoring subscriptions are usually not included.

  • Callout fee and labour rate

    Regional callout fees and the hourly labour rate determine the baseline charge applied to onsite time.

  • Hardware grade and materials

    Mid‑range consumer hardware is assumed by default, while premium or enterprise equipment increases material needs and installation complexity.

  • System complexity and integration

    Integration with existing systems, larger camera networks or access control increases labour, configuration and testing time.

  • Access, travel and specialist work

    Difficult access, long travel distances, permit requirements or specialist removal (for example asbestos) typically add time and resources to the job.
