Why this decision matters
Permission to occupy a property is different from authority to alter shared equipment or transfer its accounts.
Work through the actual task
- Identify who authorises mounting, cabling and recording access.
- Obtain the relevant permissions and agree account ownership and handover.
- Keep written approval and agree how user access will transfer when occupancy changes.
Worked example
A tenant wants cameras at an entrance shared with other occupiers. This is a hypothetical example, not a completed customer installation.
The useful evidence at the end of this example is: Written scope approvals and the process for removing access when occupancy changes.
Limits and follow-up
A recorder is not a backup. Export important clips promptly and check that the exported file plays on a separate device.
If the relevant check cannot be completed, record what remains uncertain and who will resolve it before work or sign-off proceeds.
