When we decide to install CCTV, our thoughts usually drift toward camera brands, resolutions, and how many points we need. We often forget the most crucial element: the human being who will design and install the entire system.
We talked with "Bang Febry," one of Loewix’s expert technicians, to see the world of security from his perspective. His insights reveal that a proper CCTV installation is an art, not just a technical job.
"My Job Isn't About Using a Drill; It's About Mapping a Thief’s Mind."
When asked what the first thing he does at a client's home is, Bang Febry’s answer was surprising. "I don't immediately take out my ladder and drill," he said. "I ask for permission to walk around the property with the owner, but I try to see it not as a home, but as a challenge. I ask myself, 'If I were a bad guy, where would I break in? Where is the weakest point? Where could I hide without being seen?'"
For Bang Febry, the physical installation is the final step. The first step is risk mapping—a process that requires empathy and the ability to think like a criminal. This is something that can never be achieved simply by reading a manual.
"The Biggest Mistakes Laypeople Make? Angles and Neatness."
During his years in the field, Bang Febry has often seen ineffective DIY installations. "There are two fatal mistakes I see all the time," he explained. "First is the camera angle. Many install them too high, recording only the top of someone's head, or too low, making them easy to tamper with. Finding the 'golden angle' that covers a wide area while still being able to identify a face is a skill."
"Second, and this is what usually ruins the aesthetics, is cable management. Dangling or clearly visible cables aren't just ugly; they are easy targets to be cut. A professional installation means cables are nearly invisible, blending with the building. When it comes to this, Bang Parto is the expert."
"The Best Moment Isn't When the Camera Turns On, But When the Client’s Face Relaxes."
We asked what the most satisfying part of his job is. "It’s not when the test image pops up on the monitor," he answered with a smile. "The best moment is a few minutes after that. It's when I hand the smartphone to the homeowner, showing them they can see their front yard, garage, and backyard from the palm of their hand. Then I see that expression of relief on their face. Seeing that anxiety disappear—that is my greatest satisfaction."
