Professional Hikvision Security Installation Services in Melbourne
The growing demand for security solutions in Melbourne
Melbourne’s dynamic urban landscape brings unique security challenges. Suburbs like St Kilda, Richmond, and South Yarra see burglary and vandalism, while hubs in Moorabbin demand robust surveillance. From heritage homes in Elwood to retail in Armadale, sites need adaptable, high-quality systems.
At SIPKO Security, we understand Melbourne’s weather and compliance needs. We deliver customised installations for homes, offices, and industrial sites. With Hikvision technology, our systems deter crime and provide peace of mind.
Key security requirements for Melbourne homes & businesses:
- Rapid response to incidents: alarm verification, medical events, and after-hours emergencies requiring immediate action.
- Controlled access: secure entry for staff, tenants, and customers to prevent trespassing and unauthorized access.
- Surveillance & Evidence Collection: high-quality video at entries, cash/stock areas, car parks, and loading zones; plate capture where needed.
- Staff & resident safety: panic buttons, silent alarms, and clear procedures—critical after hours and during peak trade.
- Discreet, privacy-aware protection: privacy masking, role-based access, and compliant retention aligned with local regulations and strata rules.
Generic, off-the-shelf systems rarely meet these needs.
A modern, integrated approach is essential.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Installation & Services
1. What’s included in a SIPKO Hikvision installation?
On-site assessment, system design, supply of genuine Hikvision hardware, neat PoE cabling, secure configuration, testing, and staff training—plus an as-built pack with layout and credentials.
2. Do you offer installation only?
Yes — we provide professional installation, setup, and cabling. Cameras and NVRs are supplied by you (purchase from your preferred Hikvision or Reolink retailer).
3. Do you handle privacy and compliance in Melbourne?
Yes. We configure masking for public areas, set retention policies, and provide signage guidance to align with Australian privacy standards.
4. What happens during power or internet outages?
The NVR continues local recording. Cameras with SD cards keep buffering. Remote access auto-restores when the network returns. A UPS is recommended for reliability.
Cameras & Devices
5. Which camera types do you recommend for Melbourne sites?
Domes for indoors, bullets for perimeters, turrets for entries, and PTZ for open areas. ColorVu for colour at night; DarkFighter for low light; LPR for license plates.
6. Why is my camera offline in Hik-Connect?
Check power, PoE, and internet link. Reboot the NVR or router. Ensure Hik-Connect is enabled in network settings and that the QR code was correctly added.
7. Can my Hikvision system record audio?
Yes, if supported microphones are installed and local privacy laws allow. Audio can be recorded directly on cameras or via NVR inputs.
8. How often should my CCTV system be maintained?
We recommend annual servicing—lens cleaning, firmware updates, motion detection checks, HDD health scans. For coastal or dusty areas, every 6 months.
9. How do I update firmware?
Use the NVR interface or SADP Tool. Always verify firmware matches your model. SIPKO can assist remotely to ensure safe updates.
App, Access & Notifications
10. How does remote viewing work?
Download the Hik-Connect app or IVMS desktop client for live view, playback, push alerts, and secure sharing with family or staff.
11. Why am I not receiving motion or alarm notifications?
Enable push notifications, verify motion detection zones, and check your phone’s system permissions for the Hik-Connect app.
12. Can I view cameras on multiple phones?
Yes. Use the same Hik-Connect account or share device access securely using the “Share Device” function in the app.
13. How do I change passwords or user access?
In Hik-Connect → Device Settings → Users → Modify. Always use strong, unique passwords and avoid sharing admin credentials.
Storage & Backup
14. How do I back up or export footage?
You can back up directly via USB on the NVR or export video clips from the Hik-Connect app to your mobile gallery.
15. What storage options are available?
We offer HDD redundancy, camera microSD cards, and optional cloud backup for secure, long-term retention.
16. How long will footage stay on the system?
That depends on HDD capacity and recording mode (continuous or motion). We’ll set optimal retention during installation.
Support & Upgrades
17. What support do you offer after installation?
We provide 12 months of technical support, remote help for configuration, and priority service for warranty issues or upgrades.
18. Can I move my CCTV system to a new property?
Yes. SIPKO can reinstall and reconfigure your system, preserving user settings and camera zones at the new location.
