What Do You Install Most In Your Security Applications?

What Do You Install Most – SEN’s recent poll ‘What Do Your Install Most In Your Security Applications’ turned up some surprising findings.

We’d be first to admit that the dataset is not massive and that’s likely to skew the numbers. SEN’s readership is also very tightly ANZ, which means these results don’t apply globally.

The poll asked security installers and integrators which systems they installed most from a list of options, including CCTV, alarms, access control, video intercoms and automation.

Over the polling period there were 67 unique responses, with SEN website’s poll module rejecting URLs presenting a second time. The SEN team presumed installers and integrators would mostly install alarm systems, given they are foundational to security operations of any kind, including at the residential level.

Instead, what security installers and integrators are installing most of is CCTV. It’s worth noting here that the poll did not give respondents the chance to nominate multiple categories or to list systems in descending order of application. This means an installer who mostly installs CCTV might still be putting in lashings of video intercoms and alarms.

The findings of the poll were that 55.22 per cent of installers and integrators are installing mostly CCTV, 20.90 per cent are installing mostly access control, 13.43 per cent are installing mostly alarms, 5.97 per cent are installing mostly video intercoms and 4.48 per cent are installing mostly automation.

Worthwhile conclusions can be drawn from these findings, including that most end users favour video surveillance as a core security technology. This means integrating it into alarm and access control systems as a monitoring, video verification and/or intrusion detection technology is going to be highly valued.

Our own experience as an end user of multiple alarm systems is that our first action after an alarm event is to access local cameras or to wait for video verification from system sensors.
