Home security in Armagh & Craigavon: the facts

The Police Service of Northern Ireland reports that burglary across Northern Ireland fell to the lowest level in its records in 2025/26. That is good news, but break-ins and vehicle crime still happen, and a visible camera or video doorbell remains one of the simplest ways to put opportunists off and to record evidence if something does happen.

Local advice

Choosing the right setup in Armagh & Craigavon

Homes around Armagh, Lurgan, Portadown and the surrounding villages often have larger plots, detached garages and outbuildings, so covering the driveway, side entrances and any farm or garden buildings is usually a priority. In rural spots, cameras with good night vision and a wired connection back to the house tend to be more reliable than relying on Wi-Fi alone.

If your cameras will capture anything beyond your own property, such as the street, a shared path or a neighbour’s garden, data protection rules apply. The Information Commissioner’s Office expects you to have a clear reason for recording, to put up a sign, to keep footage secure and only for as long as you need it, and to share it if someone you have recorded asks. A good installer will position cameras to keep this to a minimum.

Useful to know

CCTV questions in Armagh & Craigavon

Do I need permission to put up CCTV in Armagh & Craigavon?

Most home cameras do not need planning permission. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, check with Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council before fixing cameras to the building. If your cameras film beyond your property boundary, data protection rules also apply.

Can I point a camera at the street or my neighbour’s house?

You should avoid it where possible. The Information Commissioner’s Office says that if your cameras capture images beyond your property boundary, such as a neighbour’s garden or a public footpath, you must follow data protection law, including telling people you are recording and keeping footage secure. Your installer can angle cameras to limit this.

Can I watch my cameras on my phone?

Yes. Most modern CCTV systems and video doorbells have an app that shows live footage, sends motion alerts and lets you look back at recordings.

Will CCTV lower my home insurance?

It can help. Some insurers take security measures into account, so it is worth telling yours once your system is installed. Ask them directly, as policies differ.
