CCTV Maintenance
All new equipment supplied by Cornerstone Security will be comprehensively guaranteed for one year from the date of supply to include all parts and labour. New full installations will include three months on site maintenance.
Maintenance agreements are for a minimum of twelve months, the number of cameras that comprise your installation and the type of service provided will determine the cost of maintenance.
Standard Service
On-site labour only maintenance scheme, therefore there will be a charge for all faulty or replacement parts that have been purchased outside the twelve month guarantee period.
Comprehensive Service
In addition to above covers mechanical breakdown of cameras, camera power supplies, lenses, digital video recorders and monitors. The replacement of equipment is at the discretion of Cornerstone Security Solutions. Faulty equipment if unrepairable will usually be replaced with the equivalent standard of equipment as determined by Cornerstone Security Solutions.
Customers on our maintenance scheme are entitled to any number of visits within one year relating to genuine non-malicious faults that have occurred on their equipment, and they will be prioritised ahead of non-maintenance customers in this regard. Our usual response is for an engineer to arrive within 24hrs of a customer’s request for service. NB. Cornerstone Security Solutions does offer a twenty-four hour emergency call out service.
Included in both schemes is one preventative maintenance call out per annum at the client’s initiation, at which time we will carry out the following tasks where appropriate:
- The testing and re adjustment of focus and video levels on all cameras
