Clean installation
Cable routed through attics, basements and ceilings where possible, with weather-rated outdoor connections.
Walkthrough & handoff
We set up the app on your phone, show you how to pull clips, and you keep full admin access.
Cameras planned around what you actually need to see
Most camera systems disappoint because of placement, not hardware: a lens aimed too wide to make out a face, glare from a porch light, a blind corner by the back door. Before we quote, we walk the property with you and decide what each camera's job is. Some need to identify faces at an entry, some need to catch plates at a driveway, and some only need an overview of a yard or lot.
Your quote lists every camera and where it goes, so you know exactly what you're paying for.
Security camera and CCTV installation, start to finish
Whether you call it CCTV, a surveillance system or security cameras, the job is the same: the right cameras in the right spots, cable run cleanly, a recorder sized to your needs, and an app that works on day one. We handle the whole installation ourselves. That means the site walk, cable runs, mounting, recorder setup, motion zones, alerts and the phone app, plus removing and patching old cameras when we replace a system.
Wired, local, and yours
We install wired PoE (Power over Ethernet) cameras. Each camera runs on a single network cable that carries both power and video, so footage doesn't depend on Wi-Fi signal or a charged battery. Recording happens on a network video recorder at your property rather than on rented cloud storage.
Our go-to platform is UniFi Protect. It records locally, has no required monthly subscription, and runs in the same app as UniFi networking and door access control. Weighing it against Ring? See our UniFi vs Ring guide, or compare options in security cameras without a subscription.
Remote surveillance from anywhere
Every system we install includes remote viewing. You can watch live video, scroll back through recordings and get motion alerts on your phone or computer, whether you're across Ohio or out of the country. Recording stays on the recorder at your property, so remote access never depends on a cloud subscription. If your internet drops, the cameras keep recording, and you can catch up on footage once it's back.
For businesses and landlords with more than one location, one app shows every site, so you can check a shop in Parma and an office in Westlake from the same screen.
Security cameras for homes
For most homes that means the front door, driveway, garage, backyard and side gates. We set up motion zones so you get an alert for a person on the porch, not for every car that drives past.
Security cameras for businesses
Retail CCTV systems, office cameras and coverage for entrances, registers, stockrooms, parking lots and loading areas. For offices, shops, places of worship and multi-tenant buildings, we plan the cameras together with your network so recording doesn't slow everything else down. We can also tie cameras into door access, so every entry has video attached.
Already have cameras?
We troubleshoot and replace existing systems too: offline cameras, a recorder that's full, blurry night video, or an app that stopped connecting. If the existing cabling is in good shape, we reuse it and keep your cost down.
Google reviews
What customers say.
“Could not recommend enough. I had a security camera installation that also required the removal of an old camera from the exterior of my home. Not only did he take the time to be careful and fill in the area where the old camera was, he made certain to seal the new camera. He stayed to make sure the camera was properly set up. Highly recommend”
