Report
We had a problem with unauthorised vehicles and individuals in our private car park in Leigh-on-Sea. Eastern Security came to visit our property and pointed out all the vulnerable areas. Then they designed a CCTV system with the minimum amount of cameras required to provide maximum coverage. They also helped us to understand why we couldn't have CCTV pointing towards public footpaths.
