Solar-powered security for sites the mains can't reach
Security that doesn't need a cable
Break-ins often happen where the power does not reach. Think of the far gate, the fuel store, the outlying barn and the site compound before it is connected. Solar security removes the biggest reason those places go unprotected, because it avoids the cost and disruption of trenching mains cable. Here is why that changes the equation.

Who we protect
All sectors →Solar security suits properties that are spread out, off the mains or a long way from the nearest cable. That describes most of the places crime targets. Each sector below has its own risks and its own mix of equipment.

Rural & Off-Grid Homes
Commercial & Industrial Yards
Equestrian & Livery
The solar specialists in a mains-wired market
The security market splits in two. General CCTV installers rarely mention solar. Meanwhile, product brands sell solar camera kits but never come to site. Neither covers the ground we do, which is solar-powered systems, professionally surveyed and installed, for the off-grid and rural properties that need them most.
We want this to be a reassuring purchase. You get clear advice and correctly sized equipment. You also get a system you can rely on when it matters, not a box of parts and a shrug. Readmore about our approach.
How it works →Guides and local advice
Not sure where to start? Our guide towhether solar CCTV cameras work through a UK winteranswers the first question most buyers ask. For cost and reliability, read our comparison ofsolar CCTV and mains-wired CCTV. You can also browse all of our installation guides.
Rural sites face their own risks. Our rural crime guide for farmers and smallholderssets out what thieves target and how to respond. As a result, you can plan your cover before you ask for a survey.
We work across England, Scotland and Wales, so see where we cover by area. For example, we cover solar CCTV installation in London,solar CCTV installation in York andsolar CCTV installation in Norwich. Wherever you are, we survey first and give a fixed quote.

Questions we're asked first
Do solar security cameras work in the UK climate?
Yes, because solar cameras and lights charge from daylight rather than direct sunshine. They keep working through grey, overcast weather. We specify the panel and battery for your location and workload, with enough reserve for a dull winter week. That sizing separates a professional install from an undersized DIY kit.
Do I need mains power or broadband?
Neither. Every system runs on its own solar panel and battery. Where there is no broadband, we use 4G cameras and alarm signalling with a SIM. As a result, solar security reaches gateways, outbuildings and remote sites that wired systems cannot, without trenching a cable.
Do you supply only, or install too?
We survey, supply and install. Product-only brands ship a box and leave you to it. In contrast, we come to site, size the system and fit everything. We then set up the app and hand it over working, with one point of contact for support.
What happens during a power cut?
The system keeps recording and alarming. It runs on battery with solar top-up rather than the mains, so it carries on through the power cuts that take conventional CCTV offline. That matters, since a property is most vulnerable at exactly that moment.
Where do you cover?
We cover England, Scotland and Wales. Tell us your postcode and what you need protected through the enquiry form, and we will arrange a survey. Most assessments can start remotely from photos and a location pin.
