We install, upgrade, and repair surveillance systems for apartment properties, homes, and businesses across Southern California, including cabling, recording, and remote viewing.
Each camera has a job: identifying people at a door, watching a parking area, or recording activity in a hallway. We choose locations after checking distance, angle, night lighting, glare, and mounting surfaces.
New systems typically use network (IP) cameras on Ethernet cable, which carries both video and power. Video records to a network video recorder (NVR) or another platform chosen for the project.
Compatible systems can be viewed from a phone, tablet, or computer. We set up accounts for owners, managers, or staff, limit access by user where the system allows, and show each person how to find and export video.
Analog cameras on coaxial cable and failing recorders are common. Some upgrades can reuse existing cable; others need new runs. We check the installation and explain the options first.
Cameras that go offline, show no picture at night, or stop recording usually trace back to power, cabling, the network, or the recorder.
When you call, tell us which cameras are affected, when it started, and any errors the recorder shows.
It depends on the property and what each area needs to show. We recommend a count and locations after seeing the site, not from a fixed package.
Sometimes. Coaxial and older network cable can be reused in some cases, depending on its condition and the new equipment. We test it before recommending reuse.
That depends on the number of cameras, resolution, recording settings, and recorder capacity. We size storage for the retention period you need.
Share the property location and the systems involved. For repairs, photos of the existing equipment help.
