Cover pumps, the forecourt, the shop, the cash office and the tank area, and record plates at the entrance. Most people only find out what their cameras missed on the day they needed them. Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that. **In this guide you will see:** - Pumps, forecourt, shop, cash office and tanks. - Night performance and lighting matter. - Number-plate camera at the entrance. Quick answer A petrol station needs weatherproof cameras on the pumps and forecourt, the shop and till, the cash office, the tank and delivery area, and the entrance with number-plate capture. Fuel stations are cash-heavy and open at night, so night performance, good lighting and backup power matter. Choose equipment suitable for the environment and follow safety rules around fuel areas.

Equipment near fuel dispensing may need to meet hazardous-area safety rules. Ask your installer and the station's safety officer before mounting anything at the pumps. Why do number plates matter? Drive-offs and disputes are resolved faster with a clear plate image, which needs a dedicated camera at the right angle. What about power cuts? Use a UPS on the recorder and cameras, or generator backup, so recording continues overnight. How much storage do I need? It depends on cameras and retention. Use the recorder's bitrate to calculate days, and use surveillance-grade disks. ## Why customers choose Qyvea **Genuine brands**: Manufacturer warranty on what we sell, so you are not gambling on the box. **One team, start to finish**: The people who advise you also install and support it. **Fast answers**: WhatsApp replies usually within 30 minutes, and delivery within 24 hours in Nairobi. **Easy to buy**: Pay by M-Pesa, bank transfer or card.
