Add hundreds of small shops, markets and service businesses along Anaheim Street, PCH, Long Beach Boulevard and Artesia.
Retail owners and center managers call us about smash-and-grabs, shoplifting they cannot prove, parking lot break-ins, employee theft at the register, and point-of-sale systems that go down when the Wi-Fi does. We install camera systems that get a usable face at the door and the register, parking lot coverage for the center, AI monitoring for after-hours, secure networks for POS, and access control on stockrooms and back doors.
Retail cameras have to produce a usable face at the register and the door, not a blurry wide shot. We aim for faces and hands, cover the back door and stockroom, and add AI monitoring so a break-in after closing gets a live voice and a police response instead of a report the next morning.

Retail & Shopping Centers across Long Beach
Storefronts on 2nd Street and 4th Street are old, narrow buildings with shared walls, so we run cable cleanly and mount cameras without tearing up historic fronts. Pine Avenue and Pike retail deals with heavy foot traffic and event crowds. Larger centers like Long Beach Exchange, Towne Center and Marina Pacifica need property-wide parking cameras, often on light poles with fiber or wireless back to a central recorder, and a management office that can view all of it. Bixby Knolls and Los Altos shops are typically small, one-day installs.
Cameras that stop theft, not just record it
AI Camera Monitoring watches your Long Beach property around the clock, warns intruders off with live audio the moment they step on site, and escalates real threats with video-verified dispatch. It works with cameras we install and, in most cases, with the cameras you already have.
$1 per camera per day on a schedule · $1.50 for 24/7 · first month free
Book your free assessment by September 30 and your first month of monitoring is free.

Retail & Shopping Centers in Long Beach — questions we get
How many security cameras does a small shop on 2nd Street in Belmont Shore need?
Usually four to six: the front door with a clear face shot, the register, the sales floor, the back door and stockroom, and the sidewalk out front. Belmont Shore storefronts are narrow, so a few well-placed cameras cover a lot. We record locally, give you phone access, and can add AI monitoring for after hours. Free site survey to count what you actually need.
Can you install parking lot cameras for a shopping center in Long Beach?
Yes. Centers like Long Beach Exchange, Long Beach Towne Center, Marina Pacifica and the Los Altos centers need cameras on light poles covering the lot, entrances and drive aisles, with fiber or wireless links back to the management office. Plate readers at entrances help with break-in and hit-and-run reports. AI monitoring can watch the lot after stores close. Free site survey.
Do you set up point-of-sale networks and Wi-Fi for Long Beach retail stores?
Yes. We run Cat6 to the registers and the back office, set up a secured network for POS that is separate from guest Wi-Fi, and install access points so tablets and handheld scanners work across the floor. When the internet drops, your POS should be the last thing that fails. We also install the cameras on the same visit. Free site survey.
What camera setup stops smash-and-grab at a retail store?
Face-level cameras at every entry and register, coverage of the back door and stockroom, and after-hours AI monitoring that talks to intruders and escalates to police in seconds.
Can you do cameras for a whole shopping center?
Yes. Common areas, parking, loading and each tenant space can be covered on one system with separate views for the landlord and tenants.
Will camera installation disrupt store hours?
Rarely. Most retail installs happen before opening or after closing, and cabling is concealed so the store looks the same the next morning.
