Engineered camera coverage, not guesswork

Every CCTV project begins with a site survey and coverage plan. We map entry points, blind spots, lighting conditions, and camera sightlines before a single wire is pulled, so your surveillance system captures usable, court-ready footage — not just video for video’s sake. As an authorized Digital Watchdog and Hanwha Vision partner, we install 4K IP cameras, dome, bullet, PTZ, and license-plate-recognition cameras chosen for both function and aesthetics.

Cloud video surveillance with Eagle Eye Networks

As an authorized Eagle Eye Networks partner, we deliver cloud-based video management (VMS) with bank-grade cyber security. View live and recorded video from any iOS or Android device, monitor multiple locations from one dashboard, and eliminate on-site DVR headaches with secure cloud retention.

Live video monitoring with CHeKT

Cameras that only record tell you what happened; monitored video stops it while it’s happening. Through the CHeKT video monitoring platform, alarm events are instantly paired with live camera views so monitoring professionals can visually verify a real intrusion, issue voice-down warnings, and dispatch police with confirmed video evidence — dramatically reducing false alarms and response times.

Built for New Jersey businesses and homes

From restaurants and retail chains to warehouses, offices, schools, and residences throughout Union County and the greater NJ area, our installations are clean, code-compliant, and backed by long-term service. We also upgrade and take over legacy analog CCTV systems, migrating you to modern IP video without ripping out usable infrastructure.

Camera coverage for multi-unit and apartment buildings

New Jersey’s multifamily boom means more lobbies, parking garages, package rooms, and amenity spaces that need professional camera coverage. We design surveillance systems for apartment buildings, condos, and HOA communities — common-area and entrance cameras, parking and perimeter coverage, and cloud video that property managers can review from anywhere. Whether it’s a new development or an occupied building retrofit, we engineer coverage that protects residents and reduces liability. Learn more about our multifamily work on our Industries page.

-— FREQUENTLY ASKED

Can you take over or upgrade my existing alarm system?

Yes — we take on virtually any system. We frequently take over existing panels and sensors, upgrading them to modern 2GIG or Qolsys IQ smart panels on the Alarm.com platform while reusing sound infrastructure where possible.

Will I get alerts on my phone?

Yes. The Alarm.com app sends instant push notifications for alarms, arming events, and even specific doors or zones you want to watch.

Does the alarm still work if my internet goes down?

Yes. We install systems with dual-path communication — cellular plus broadband — so your alarm keeps reporting to the monitoring center even if your internet or power is cut.

Can Alarm.com protect against fire and water damage too?

Absolutely. We add monitored smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, water leak sensors, and temperature sensors to the same system — including walk-in cooler and freezer monitoring for restaurants.

What is video-verified alarm monitoring?

Through CHeKT, alarm signals are paired with live camera video so the monitoring center can visually confirm a break-in, issue voice-down warnings, and request priority police dispatch with real evidence — cutting false alarms and getting faster response when it counts.

How much does a monitored alarm system cost in NJ?

A professionally installed 2GIG or Qolsys IQ system for a typical home or small business starts in the hundreds to low thousands depending on sensor count, with monthly monitoring through Alarm.com typically comparable to what national brands charge — but installed and supported by a local NJ team. Takeovers of existing systems often cost significantly less.

Do I need an alarm registration or permit in New Jersey?

Many NJ municipalities require alarm registration with the local police department, and some assess fines for excessive false alarms. We advise on your town’s requirements at installation — and video-verified monitoring through CHeKT dramatically reduces false-alarm risk in the first place.

Can I control my alarm, locks, and thermostat from one app?

Yes. The Alarm.com app unifies your security panel, smart locks, garage doors, lights, thermostats, video doorbells, and cameras in one interface — one app for the whole property, not a folder full of disconnected brand apps.

Do you install commercial alarm systems for businesses?

Yes. We protect NJ restaurants, retail stores, offices, and warehouses with commercial-grade intrusion systems — including Alarm.com for Business features like walk-in cooler temperature monitoring, unexpected-activity alerts, and multi-location dashboards for franchise operators.
