Frequently asked questions
Is SIRA approval mandatory in Dubai?
For most commercial premises in Dubai, yes — CCTV must meet SIRA standards and be installed by a SIRA-approved provider, covering camera specification, coverage, storage and retention. As an approved installer we design to standard and handle the approval for you.
What is the difference between SIRA and ADMCC?
SIRA governs security and CCTV in Dubai; ADMCC governs it in Abu Dhabi. The submissions and portals differ but the goal is the same — compliant cameras, coverage and retention — and we handle both.
Do you handle the paperwork?
Yes — we manage the full approval submission, drawings and inspection on your behalf. See our CCTV Approval Services page.
Is SIRA approval handled for me?
Yes — we design to SIRA (Dubai) and ADMCC (Abu Dhabi) standards and manage the approval process where required.
How long is CCTV footage stored?
By default we configure a minimum of 31 days of footage retention in line with SIRA requirements, and size storage to your site category and how long you need recordings kept. Longer retention is available where regulations or your own policy require it.
Can I watch the cameras on my phone?
Yes. We set up secure live and playback viewing from your phone, tablet and desktop, with multi-site access and optional cloud recording — so you can check any camera from anywhere, with role-based access for your team.
