Why Backbone

Stop Managing Multiple Contractors

Most security problems come from systems that don't talk to each other — installed by different teams with different warranties and no single point of accountability. We fix that.

ArmorCam steel camera bracket

ArmorCam

The camera stays on the wall

ArmorCam is a steel sleeve for a small or medium CCTV camera, fitted in Gqeberha by Backbone Security Solutions. The bolts sit inside it. The cable leaves through a covered notch. The installer opens it with a key. It is not a cage.
