Security camera, alarm and intercom installation

CCTV around a house, an alarm for an apartment or a video intercom instead of an old handset: write in an order what kind of property it is and what the system should cover, and installers will send responses. Or choose an installer yourself — by their services, portfolio and client reviews.

How much CCTV installation costs

What affects the price

  • Number and placement of cameras

    Installation is often priced per camera, and an outdoor one on a facade or a pole takes more work than an indoor one under a hallway ceiling.

  • Cable or Wi-Fi

    For a wired camera, cable is run from the recorder, often in conduit or underground, while a wireless one usually needs an outlet nearby and stable Wi-Fi.

  • Alarm sensors

    The cost depends on the number of sensors — door and window contacts, motion detectors in the rooms — and on whether you need a siren and a keypad.

  • Backup power

    For the cameras and the recorder to keep working during power outages, they need a UPS or a battery-backed power supply, a separate line in the estimate.

  • Building intercom

    For an apartment video intercom to take calls from the building entrance, it is usually connected to the shared line through an interface module matching the building's system.

How to choose a CCTV installer

  1. 1

    Familiar equipment brands

    Ajax, Hikvision and Dahua each have their own apps and settings. Ask which brands the installer has worked with, and look for similar properties in their portfolio.

  2. 2

    What each camera will see

    Before installation, ask the installer to walk around with you and show what each camera will capture, and discuss whether neighbors' windows and the street will be visible.

  3. 3

    Where recordings are stored

    Ask where the archive will be stored — on the recorder's drive, a memory card or in the cloud — how many days it will hold, and whether you can watch it from your phone.

  4. 4

    Passwords stay with you

    Agree that after installation the cameras' and recorder's default passwords will be changed, the app account will be registered to you, and admin access will stay with you alone.

  5. 5

    Monitoring station

    If guards should respond to an alarm, ask whether the installer connects it to a security company's monitoring station, or you sign that contract separately.

What to put in the order

The more precise the description, the more precise the prices in responses.
  • What to install: CCTV, an alarm, an intercom or access control

  • Type of property: an apartment, a private house, an office, a shop or a warehouse

  • What the system should watch and protect: the entrance, yard, parking area, rooms — and roughly how many cameras or sensors

  • Make and model of the equipment, if already bought

  • Whether renovation is still going on, or cable will have to run over finished walls

  • Whether you need phone viewing, a recording archive and a monitoring station connection
