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
Do you install security cameras for both homes and businesses?
Yes. We design and install video surveillance for residential properties, small businesses, restaurants, retail chains, offices, and industrial facilities throughout New Jersey.
Can I view my cameras from my phone?
Absolutely. Our cloud-based and NVR systems include mobile apps for iOS and Android, so you can view live and recorded video from anywhere in the world.
Can you upgrade my existing analog CCTV system?
In most cases, yes. We frequently migrate legacy analog systems to modern IP video, often reusing existing coax or cabling infrastructure to keep costs down.
What is monitored video surveillance?
With CHeKT video monitoring, alarm events are instantly verified against live camera views by monitoring professionals, who can issue audible warnings and dispatch police with confirmed video evidence — faster response and far fewer false alarms.
How much does security camera installation cost in NJ?
Cost depends on camera count, resolution, cabling distance, and recording platform. A typical small-business 4-camera IP system starts in the low thousands installed, while larger multi-site deployments are quoted per project. Every Tristate quote follows a free on-site survey, so pricing reflects your actual building — no guesswork and no surprise change orders.
How long is camera footage stored?
Most of our systems are configured for 30 days of retention, which satisfies the majority of insurance and compliance requirements. We can engineer longer retention — 60, 90 days or more — with expanded NVR storage or Eagle Eye cloud archiving, depending on your industry’s needs.
Do security cameras work at night?
Yes. We install cameras with infrared (IR) night vision and, where appropriate, full-color low-light sensors from Digital Watchdog and Hanwha Vision that produce usable color video in near-darkness. During the site survey we evaluate exterior lighting so nighttime coverage is engineered, not assumed.
Do I need a permit for security cameras in New Jersey?
Camera systems generally don’t require permits, but related low-voltage work sometimes does depending on the municipality. As a New Jersey licensed and insured integrator, we handle any required permitting and always install to code.
Do you install cameras for apartment buildings and condos?
Yes. We design camera systems for multi-unit residential buildings across New Jersey — lobby and entrance coverage, parking areas, package rooms, elevators, and amenity spaces — with cloud video management so property managers can review footage from anywhere. We handle both new construction and retrofits in occupied buildings.
