About the service

Three jobs at once

Video surveillance is the first thing a burglar checks and the most common reason they give up. A well-designed system does three jobs at once: it deters before the attempt, alerts you at the moment of the event, and keeps footage that later stands as evidence with the police and in court. A poorly set up system does only one thing: it creates a false sense of security. The difference isn't in the camera but in the design: where the camera sits, what exactly it covers, how the cable is protected and who responds when something happens.

Why Longse

Longse video surveillance cameras

Longse is a global manufacturer of video surveillance equipment with over 15 years of experience and a presence in markets worldwide. Its range covers IP and analogue cameras, network and hybrid recorders (NVR and DVR), PTZ and thermal cameras and AI solutions, with an emphasis on image quality, reliability and parts availability.

For Alfa Security, Longse is the choice because it combines professional image quality with a reasonable price and good support on the Croatian market. That means faster procurement, compatibility with recorders and our alarm receiving centre, and parts available for years after installation, instead of equipment nobody services after two years.

Our range covers the full spectrum: from bullet and dome cameras for the home, through models with full-colour night recording, to AI cameras that distinguish a person from a vehicle. We choose the recorder, cameras and mobile app as one whole, so the system works in sync and is easy to expand later.

  • Full-colour night recording with warm or white LED light
  • Starlight sensors for a sharp image in very low light
  • AI detection of people and vehicles, far fewer false alarms
  • Active deterrence: light and sound warning on motion
  • H.265+ compression for longer retention with less storage
  • IP66 / IP67 housings resistant to rain, dust and temperatures
  • PoE power and data transfer over a single network cable
  • Resolutions from 2 to 8 MP (4K) for legible details and plates

Equipment and viewing

We install high-resolution Longse IP cameras (4 to 8 MP) with a 30-metre infrared night range and motion detection that tells a person from a cat or a branch in the wind. Longse is a proven manufacturer of professional video surveillance equipment (longse.com), with good availability of parts and support on the Croatian market. We size the recorder to the number of cameras and the desired retention: we typically keep 15 to 30 days of footage, with automatic overwriting of the oldest material. You view all cameras in a mobile app: live, back in time or by event, from any location.

Viewing from your phone

You watch all your cameras from your pocket: live, back in time or by individual event, from any location. In a single app (iOS and Android) you arrange all cameras on one screen, get a notification the moment detection triggers, and save or forward the footage right away. The same view works on a tablet and a computer too.

Price and installation

Prices depend on the number of cameras and the complexity of the installation. A package with 2 cameras, a recorder, a disk and complete installation for a flat or smaller house starts from €590. An average family house with 4 cameras comes to roughly €900 to €1,400. Business premises (shops, warehouses, production halls) are done by project: after a free site visit you get a floor plan with camera positions, an equipment specification and a fixed price. Installation for smaller premises takes one working day.

Response and GDPR

Video surveillance shows its true value only combined with a response. That's why every system we install can be connected to our central alarm receiving centre: when motion detection triggers at 2 a.m., you don't watch the footage — our operator does, and by the agreed protocol calls you, the police or sends a response team. We don't skip the GDPR part: with the installation you get recording notices, a policy template and correctly configured footage retention.

For house and flat

Most often: a camera at the entrance, on the yard side and in the garage, with an app for the whole family. You see who's ringing, when the kids got home from school and what's happening while you're on holiday.

  • 2 to 4 cameras typically cover all approaches
  • Installed in one day, no breaking walls
  • Notification to your phone on person detection

For business premises

Till, entrance, warehouse, ramp and perimeter: we design coverage around processes, not by feel. We integrate footage with access control and the alarm into one system.

  • A project with a floor plan before the quote
  • Integration with alarm and access control
  • Video verification of alarms in the receiving centre

FAQ

Frequently asked questions: video surveillance

01How much does home video surveillance installation cost?

A package with 2 cameras and a recorder from €590; an average house with 4 cameras roughly €900 to €1,400 with installation. The exact price depends on the length of the cable runs and the type of facade, which is why the site visit is free.

02Do the cameras see at night?

Yes, all cameras we install have infrared night recording with a range up to 30 m, in colour or black-and-white depending on the model. For large outdoor areas we choose cameras with stronger IR illuminators and position them more precisely so there are no blind spots.

03How long is footage kept?

Typically 15 to 30 days, depending on disk capacity and the number of cameras. The GDPR recommendation for most uses is up to 30 days; for special requirements we size a larger disk.

04Can I watch the video surveillance from my phone?

Yes, live and back in time, from the app on your phone or computer. You grant access to family members or colleagues, each with their own password and level of rights.

05Is recording the street or neighbours allowed?

No. We aim the cameras to cover your plot and approaches, and mask corners and private zones in software. With the installation you get the prescribed video surveillance notices and a documentation template.
