CCTV for workshops and service centres
A workshop needs the vehicle entry gate, the work bays, the tool store, the customer-vehicle parking and the cash desk covered. Thirty days of retention outlasts the collection-day damage claim. A 4-camera package at PKR 55,000–85,000 covers a typical two-bay setup, with lens cleaning on every service visit.

Claims arrive at collection
The dispute a workshop actually faces is the customer who collects a car and reports a new scratch, a missing tool kit or a lighter fuel gauge. A gate camera logging arrival condition and time, plus bay coverage while the vehicle is worked on, closes those conversations — and thirty days of retention covers even the slow collector.
The tool store leaks quietly
Hand tools and diagnostic gear walk out in pockets, not in raids. One camera on the tool-store door recording who entered and when does more than a camera over every bay, and it pairs naturally with a simple sign-out rule. The compressor and welding-plant corner deserves the same treatment.
Grinding dust eats lenses
In the workshop clusters of I-9, I-10 and along IJP Road, cutting and grinding dust films every lens within weeks. Closed domes mounted high and out of the direct spark line, plus a wipe at every service visit, keep the pictures worth keeping — an AMC from PKR 15,000 a year covers exactly this.
What CCTV does a workshop need?
Can the gate camera prove a car arrived already damaged?
Yes, if positioned for it: a frame that captures each side as the vehicle turns in, timestamped. We aim the gate camera for panel-level detail at walking speed, which is what those claims need.
Do cameras survive workshop dust and vibration?
With the right mounts, yes — high, away from spark lines and hammering, in closed domes. What kills workshop cameras is cleaning neglect, not impact.
Rather have it done?
Business CCTV is built around the counter, the entrance, the stock area and the back door, with storage long enough to catch problems you only notice at stocktake. Systems for Islamabad marts, pharmacies, schools and offices start at PKR 85,000, and can tie into access control and your point of sale.
