Question 1

Our yard barely gets one bar of signal — will the cameras still work?

Accepted Answer

Often, yes. We survey the actual signal at your site before quoting and fit high-gain external aerials to pull in weak 4G where the cameras can't manage on their own. Where there's genuinely no mobile coverage, HaLow and LoRa kit run independently of the phone network entirely.

Question 2

We have no broadband at the farm. Is that a problem?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. Every product on this page runs over 4G, LoRa or HaLow, so nothing depends on a fixed line. You won't be waiting months for Openreach or paying to trench a cable up the lane to the barn.

Question 3

Can you put together a package for the whole farm?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Rather than sell boxes off a shelf we build a bundle around your holding — yard cameras, a few stock collars, a handful of shed sensors and gate control — and quote it as one job. Tell us what's costing you sleep and we'll spec it.

Question 4

How disruptive is the install during a busy season?

Accepted Answer

A single solar camera or sensor is usually live in under an hour, with no electrician and no digging. A larger holding with several zones is typically a full day on site, and we'll work around milking, feeding and field work.

Question 5

What protects the kit from weather, stock and thieves?

Accepted Answer

Everything is weather-sealed and built for life outdoors in a British winter. Cameras can be mounted out of easy reach with tamper alerts, footage is backed up off-site as it records, and we support warranty claims and help compile evidence for insurers if the worst happens.

Question 6

Do I need planning permission to put cameras up?

Accepted Answer

On your own agricultural land it's generally fine. The one thing to check is where a camera points — if it overlooks a public road, a footpath or a neighbour's property, have a quick word with the local council about privacy obligations first.

Question 7

Can I start small and add to it later?

Accepted Answer

That's how most farms do it. Begin with the yard and the fuel store, see how you get on, then add more cameras, collars or sensors onto the same system whenever you're ready. Nothing has to be bought all at once.
