App-connected solar, wireless and floodlight cameras
Smart-home CCTV for convenient everyday monitoring
Smart-home CCTV is the simpler, app-led route for customers who want useful notifications, live viewing, video doorbells, floodlight cameras or solar-powered coverage without a full recorder-based system. NOX installs and configures suitable smart cameras, then considers garages, outbuildings, entrances and future alarm or perimeter protection so the wider property plan remains clear without pretending separate platforms are one system.
System in detail
Equipment and installations matched to the requirement
A selection of the real equipment, installed positions and customer-facing features used across suitable NOX projects.
Designed around the property
Convenient smart cameras still need the right position, power strategy and app setup
A wireless camera is only useful when the view, detection zone, mounting height, charging or solar exposure and notification settings all suit the property. NOX surveys the requirement and explains when a smart camera is suitable and when a professional NVR system is the better route.

A connected doorbell adds live conversation, notifications and entry-point video within the wider security system.
Coordinated smart-home package
Cameras, lighting, door contacts, motion detection and a NOX external warning device can be planned as one clear package.
How NOX delivers the project
From survey to handover and ongoing support
Whole-property review
We review entrances, approaches, garages, outbuildings, Wi-Fi coverage, available sunlight and the image the customer needs.
Honest system choice
NOX explains whether smart cameras will meet the requirement or whether a recorder-based Ajax or Hikvision system is more appropriate.
Installation and setup
Cameras, solar panels, doorbells or floodlights are positioned and the supporting app or HomeBase is configured.
Handover and future plan
Notifications, live view, charging expectations, privacy zones and the route into future alarm, perimeter or professional CCTV work are explained.
More detail
Installation, operation and long-term support
Solar camera positioning
Solar exposure and the required camera view both matter. Panels and cameras are positioned to balance charging performance with useful coverage.
Floodlight cameras
A combined light and camera can suit entrances, gardens and external working areas where active illumination is useful.
When to choose an NVR
For continuous recording, larger properties, multiple users or commercial evidence requirements, NOX will normally recommend a professional recorder-based CCTV system.
Coordinated property planning
Smart cameras can be planned alongside separately scoped Ajax alarms, perimeter detection, garages and outbuildings without creating unnecessary duplication.
Future expansion
Likely camera positions, external areas and upgrade routes can be considered from the start even when the work is delivered in phases.

Residential CCTV & Intruder · Chesterfield, Derbyshire
Ajax Alarm and CCTV Installation for a Chesterfield Home
This Chesterfield property was being renovated and needed a security system planned around both the risk and the finished look of the home. The customer wanted protection across the main house, garage and external approaches, but standard white equipment would have stood out against the darker frames and brickwork. NOX combined Ajax intruder protection with black external CCTV, a matching keypad, recording equipment and a branded warning device, then configured the system around straightforward household use.

Smart-home CCTV · Chesterfield, Derbyshire
Solar and floodlight smart-home CCTV
The customer wanted external visibility around the home without the cabling and recorder arrangement of a conventional multi-camera CCTV system. The property was therefore better suited to a carefully planned smart-camera route rather than a generic wired package. NOX selected Eufy solar and floodlight options for the relevant areas, checked the intended views, wireless connection and charging conditions, configured the app and detection settings, and demonstrated how the homeowner could use live view and alerts after installation.

Customer reviews
Trusted for clear advice, tidy work and proper handover
“Professional, friendly and sensible pricing. From first contact to completion the process was smooth and stress-free. The team clearly know their stuff and the system is exactly what we needed. Would have no hesitation recommending NOX to other businesses.”Jez SCommercial CCTV
“Seamless journey from start to finish! I filled in the simple form and was soon contacted by the team. They were very knowledgeable, professional and really listened to my needs. I have since had a system installed. The price was much less than I had expected and so far the aftercare has been great. I can't recommend them enough!”Jeremy BuntingSecurity System Installation
“We recently had NOX install cameras, smoke screens, and alarms at our office and the whole experience has been spot on from start to finish. From the very first phone call with Isaac, everything felt straightforward and reassuring. He took the time to explain our options, answered all our questions, and helped design a system that made sense for our building and our budget. No pushy sales tactics at all, which was refreshing. The installation was smooth, the team were professional, and even after everything was fitted, Isaac has been on hand to help with any follow-up questions. A really great service and a company I'd happily recommend.”Nathan De La RosaCommercial CCTV, Alarms & Smoke Screens
Common questions
Clear answers before you commit
Do you install Eufy cameras?
Yes. NOX can install and configure suitable Eufy solar, battery and floodlight cameras where they match the property and customer requirement.
What is the difference between smart-home CCTV and professional residential CCTV?
Smart-home CCTV is app-led and suited to simpler solar, battery, doorbell or floodlight-camera requirements. Professional residential CCTV uses fixed cameras with a dedicated recorder for stronger whole-property coverage, continuous or scheduled recording and more capable playback.
Can you improve my existing smart-camera layout?
Yes. NOX can review positioning, detection zones, network coverage and app setup, although compatibility and account access need to be confirmed.
Can smart cameras work with an Ajax alarm?
They remain separate platforms in most cases. NOX can explain the practical options and recommend a more integrated Ajax CCTV route when one-app control is important.
Can I start with smart cameras and add an alarm or perimeter protection later?
Yes. The initial survey can consider future alarm devices, external detection, garages, outbuildings and professional CCTV routes so later work is easier to plan.
