Electronic Security &
CCTV System Design
Comprehensive electronic security system design — IP CCTV surveillance, access control, intrusion detection and security central monitoring room design for all building types, compliant with IEC 62676 and ONVIF standards.
What We Offer
Electronic security design encompasses the full range of physical security technologies that protect people, assets and information within buildings and sites. ASDV Consultant provides professional design services for IP CCTV surveillance, access control systems, intrusion detection and alarm systems, and security central monitoring rooms.
Our CCTV designs are based on camera coverage analysis — ensuring every required area is covered by at least one camera with adequate resolution, field of view and lighting to meet the client's evidentiary and monitoring requirements. We design for both IP network-based systems (NVR) and hybrid systems, with storage sizing calculations based on retention period, frame rate and compression format.
Access control designs integrate card readers, biometric devices, electric locks, electromagnetic locks and door controllers with building management systems and HR databases — providing granular access level management, audit trails and emergency lockdown capability. We design to IEC 60839 (electronic access control) and ISO 19794 (biometric) standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
Camera resolution depends on the required identification task. For general surveillance and detection (is someone there?), 2MP HD cameras are adequate. For recognition (who is this person?), 4–8MP cameras are needed. For forensic identification from a distance (e.g., reading licence plates), 4K or specialist LPR cameras are required. We calculate the required pixels-on-target for each camera location during design.
Storage requirements depend on: camera count, resolution, frame rate (fps), compression codec (H.264 vs H.265 — H.265 reduces storage by ~50%), motion detection activation, and retention period (typically 30 days for standard installations, 90 days for high-security). We calculate exact storage requirements for every project.
An NVR (Network Video Recorder) is a dedicated appliance that records and manages IP cameras in small-to-medium installations. A VMS (Video Management System) is software-based, running on a server, and supports larger, more complex deployments with advanced analytics, multi-site management and integration with access control and other systems.
Building regulations require that fire alarm activation releases all magnetically held-open fire doors (fail-secure) and may unlock emergency exit routes (fail-safe). The access control system interfaces with the fire alarm panel so that designated doors automatically unlock on fire alarm activation, enabling safe egress. This interface is defined in the Cause & Effect matrix.
Yes. Outdoor CCTV design requires weatherproof (IP66 rated minimum) cameras, appropriate IR or white-light illumination for night-time coverage, and cable protection against environmental exposure. We also design perimeter security solutions including thermal cameras, video analytics for intrusion detection and integration with lighting and alarm systems.
