A smash-and-grab at a storefront on Colorado Boulevard in Old Pasadena. Package theft in an apartment lobby off Lake Avenue. Someone sleeping on the loading dock of a warehouse in Lamanda Park. Cameras only help if they are placed where the problem happens and record at a resolution that shows a face or a plate.
We install IP camera systems with real coverage: wide views of the lot, tight views of gates and entries, license plate cameras at driveways, and interior cameras at registers and doors. Everything records to a local NVR with remote viewing on your phone. We run the cable, mount the cameras, set up the recorder and walk you through it. If you want someone actually watching, our AI camera monitoring plugs into the same system. Licensed C-7, and the site survey is free.
We install 4K and 5MP IP cameras with true wide dynamic range so faces are readable against bright doors and headlights. Recording is local on an NVR with health monitoring, or cloud where your insurer or corporate policy requires it. Every system is set up so you can hand video to police in minutes.
What is included
- Commercial IP cameras: turret, bullet, dome, multi-sensor and license-plate cameras
- NVR or cloud recording sized for 30, 60 or 90-day retention
- Cat6 PoE cabling, conduit and weatherproof mounts done to code
- Remote viewing on phone and desktop with user permissions
- Camera placement engineered for faces, plates and entry points — not just wide shots
- Optional 24/7 AI monitoring with live voice-down deterrence

Security Camera Installation across Pasadena
Camera placement in Pasadena depends on the block. On East Colorado between Allen and Rosemead, dealership lots need pole-mounted cameras and plate readers at the driveways, and the City has rules about light spill onto neighbors. In Old Pasadena and Playhouse Village, landmark buildings need cameras mounted so they do not alter the historic facade, which usually means under awnings or on existing fixtures. South Lake offices are about lobbies, garages and elevator landings. In 91107 industrial blocks off East Foothill, it is docks, yards and the alley behind the building.

Security Camera Installation in Pasadena — questions we get
How many security cameras does a Pasadena business need?
A small shop in Old Pasadena often needs four: front door, register, back door and the alley. A dealership lot on East Colorado can need fifteen or more with plate readers. A South Lake office usually wants lobby, garage entries and each floor landing. We count what actually needs coverage on the free site survey, not a package number.
Can I put cameras on a historic building in Pasadena?
Yes, with some care. Cameras on a landmark or historic district building in Old Pasadena should mount on existing elements, under awnings, or in recessed spots so the street-facing facade is unchanged. That keeps you out of Certificate of Appropriateness territory with the City. We have worked around this and plan placement on the survey.
Will my Pasadena cameras be usable by Pasadena Police after a break-in?
Only if they record at a resolution that shows a face or plate and keep footage long enough. We set cameras at 4MP or better, aim plate readers at driveway height, and size the recorder for at least 30 days. Pasadena Police will take footage from a business system, and clear video is what makes it useful.
How many cameras does my business need?
Most small commercial properties need 6 to 16 cameras: every entry, the register or reception, the loading area, the lot and the perimeter. The free site survey gives you an exact count and a camera map before you spend anything.
Do you install cameras with audio and license plate capture?
Yes. We install two-way audio cameras for deterrence and dedicated license plate cameras at driveways and gates, aimed and shuttered for plates at night.
Will my cameras work with AI monitoring later?
Yes. Every system we install is monitoring-ready, and most existing IP systems can be connected too. You can add 24/7 monitoring at any time, from $1 per camera per day with the first month free.
