This is a very pertinent question for our clients living in conservation areas like Ranfurly in Bridge of Weir or historical parts of Glasgow city centre. Installing CCTV on a listed building typically requires “Listed Building Consent” from the local council. The concern is usually about the visual impact on the building’s character and any permanent damage caused by drilling or cabling into traditional stonework.
As specialists in Central Scotland, Safe AR Solutions takes a very delicate approach to these properties. We often use compact, discreet cameras that match the colour of the stone and employ specialized mounting techniques that avoid drilling into the actual masonry where possible. We can also use wireless bridges to reduce the amount of external cabling. We always advise our clients in East Renfrewshire to check with their local planning office first, and we can provide technical drawings and photos of our intended installation to help support your application, ensuring your home is protected without compromising its heritage.
