Commercial CCTV Installation Services

It covers the whole path from site survey to handover: reviewing what is installed today, defining what new or replacement cameras must show, designing the cabling, network, and recording, then installing, configuring, and testing. For upgrades we also plan the cutover so you are not left without recording. Your team accepts the installation and training before closeout, and you receive documentation of cameras, IP addresses, and settings.

We begin with the risks you are trying to manage and work back to hardware. That means listing areas by what matters there, such as entrances, cash handling, docks, and parking, then deciding the level of detail each needs. Storage is sized to a written retention policy set by your legal, HR, or risk team. Then we pick cameras, recorders, and redundancy such as RAID or dual power supplies, each of which adds cost.

Yes. The most useful link is event-to-video: a denied badge, a forced door, or a door held open brings up the camera on that door. On an upgrade, check first whether your current access control software supports integration with the video platform you are considering. If it does not, the integration may drive the upgrade order: replace the video side first, the access side first, or both in phases.

Yes, through our hosted and managed services. They use certified data center partners for storage and redundancy, reduce upfront capital cost, spread operating cost across the system's life, and deliver software updates as they release. The trade-offs are bandwidth and retention: many cameras at high resolution with long retention can exceed your internet uplink. We run that math with your IT team before recommending cloud, on-prem, or a hybrid.

Yes. Our Network Operations Center monitors the health of cameras and video servers, with health checks, smart dashboards, and cybersecurity controls, and notifies us nearly immediately when an issue appears. We then troubleshoot and resolve it through your maintenance contract. This is system health monitoring; IPS does not watch live video. Pricing is based on the devices and services covered.

Reach us by phone or start a remote session through our support portal. We diagnose remotely where possible and schedule onsite service within a reasonable time during normal hours, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. After-hours work can be arranged at additional charge. Variable-scope repairs are billed on a time-and-material basis at prevailing rates, and recommended repairs are approved by you first.

Pricing is based on the number of devices and the services in the quote. On upgrades, a large variable is how much existing infrastructure can be reused. Sound cabling and network gear lower the cost; tired coax or undersized switches raise it, and runs past the Cat 6 limit of 100 m (328 ft) need fiber or a local switch. A site assessment settles that before pricing. The web form starts the conversation; it does not produce a price.

Usually. If your existing infrastructure meets your needs, we reuse it. Recorders typically wear out in four to six years, before IP cameras at seven to ten, so the recorder often goes first. Analog cameras on coax can be bridged with encoders, though encoded analog will not match new IP cameras. A phased rollout spreads cost and disruption; a single cutover is faster but needs a fallback plan for recording.
