CCTV Installation in Madeira
Security Camera Systems for Homes and Businesses
VELVET FIELDS provides professional CCTV installation in Madeira, including security cameras, video storage, system configuration and maintenance.
We install surveillance systems for homes, holiday rentals, construction sites, warehouses and commercial properties, with flexible video storage options to suit your needs.
CCTV Systems for Different Properties
Every property has different security needs. We install CCTV systems tailored to your premises, helping you monitor activity, protect assets and keep an eye on your property remotely.
Construction Sites
Building materials, tools and machinery can be expensive to replace. CCTV helps monitor site activity, access points and equipment, including outside working hours.
Warehouses & Storage Facilities
Monitor entrances, loading areas, stored goods and daily operations. Camera placement can help improve visibility across large spaces and support investigations when incidents occur.
Offices & Commercial Premises
Monitor entrances, shared areas and other important locations. CCTV can help deter unauthorised access, protect equipment and provide a clearer picture of activity on your premises.
Shops & Retail
Keep an eye on entrances, sales floors, stockrooms and checkout areas. Video footage can help clarify incidents involving theft, damage or disputes.
Apartment Buildings & Common Areas
Monitor building entrances, garages, parking areas and shared spaces to help improve security for residents and property managers.
Remote Properties & Rural Land
For properties outside busy urban areas, CCTV can help monitor access roads, outbuildings, gates and surrounding areas, depending on camera coverage and connectivity.

CCTV Video Storage Options
Your recordings are an important part of your security system. We offer three storage configurations, allowing you to choose between keeping footage on your premises, storing it remotely, or combining both approaches.
Local Storage
Your recordings stay on your property.
Video footage is stored on a local recorder or storage device at your premises.
- Recording can continue without internet access if equipment has power and functions correctly.
- No separate monthly remote-storage fee is usually required.
- Remote viewing is available on compatible systems.
- Recordings may be lost if storage equipment is damaged, stolen, or fails.
Recommended for: Customers who want direct control over their recordings without ongoing remote-storage costs.
Storage on Our Hosting
Your recordings are stored off-site on our hosting infrastructure.
Compatible cameras and recording systems transfer footage to our hosting infrastructure for remote storage and access.
- Access recordings remotely when an internet connection is available.
- Reduce reliance on on-site storage equipment.
- Transferred footage may remain available if local equipment is damaged or stolen.
- Recording continuity depends on connectivity, compatibility, and system configuration.
- Monthly hosting fees may apply depending on storage capacity and retention period.
Recommended for: Customers who prefer off-site video storage with less reliance on local recording equipment.
Hybrid Storage
Local recording combined with remote storage.
Footage is recorded locally and copies are transferred to our hosting infrastructure for additional protection.
- Local recording can continue during internet outages if equipment has power and functions correctly.
- Remote copies may remain available if local equipment is damaged or stolen.
- Remote access is available when connectivity permits.
- Requires local storage equipment and remote hosting.
- Monthly hosting fees may apply.
Recommended for: Customers who want an additional layer of protection against losing important recordings.
