Why Lease Your CCTV and Security Systems?
Modern CCTV and security systems – IP cameras, NVRs, VMS platforms, storage, and monitoring are now essential infrastructure for compliance, insurance, and risk management. Buying outright can delay projects and limit system quality; leasing converts that upfront cost into an affordable operating expense.
Key benefits of CCTV equipment leasing:
• Preserve cash and credit lines for core operations rather than sunk capital in hardware.
• Keep technology current with built‑in upgrade paths as cameras, analytics, and software advance.
• Enjoy clear, fixed rentals over 2–7 years for easier budgeting and forecasting.
• Potential tax advantages, as rentals are usually treated as fully deductible operating costs (subject to advice from you accountant).
• Bundle cameras, recording, servers, software licences, installation, and maintenance into one simple agreement.
For decision‑makers, this means higher‑spec systems, deployed sooner, with less internal resistance from capital committees and budget holders
CCTV Finance for Larger Companies and Multi‑Site Projects
For larger companies, public bodies, and multi‑site operators, CCTV is a long‑term, strategic investment linked to safety, insurance, and ESG objectives. Oaklease structures CCTV finance so that security projects fit your cash flow, procurement rules, and reporting requirements.
Benefits for larger organisations include:
• Custom term lengths, step payments, and seasonal structures aligned with your revenue and project phases.
• Transparent documentation with clearly explained end‑of‑term options and no hidden fees.
• Ability to consolidate multiple sites, countries, or phases under a master agreement for simpler management.
• Support for technology refresh policies, so older systems are replaced before they become a security or compliance risk.
• Potential off‑balance‑sheet treatment with certain structures, subject to accounting advice.
Typical users include logistics and warehousing, manufacturing plants, retail chains, universities, healthcare providers, and local authorities upgrading or standardising CCTV across estates.
