Professional security camera and CCTV system installation for Los Angeles homes and businesses

Residential Security Cameras

Protecting your Los Angeles home starts with the right camera placement. We install HD security cameras at entry points, driveways, backyards, and common areas so you can monitor activity day and night. Residential systems can include bullet cameras, dome cameras, and doorbell cameras—all integrated with your smartphone for remote viewing. Our technicians assess your property, recommend optimal mounting positions, and run weatherproof cables to ensure a clean, professional installation that deters intruders and provides evidence when needed.

Commercial CCTV Systems

Los Angeles businesses rely on professional CCTV installation to safeguard employees, inventory, and assets. Code Locksmith designs scalable commercial surveillance solutions for retail stores, offices, warehouses, and multi-tenant buildings. We install high-resolution cameras with wide-angle lenses to cover entrances, cash registers, loading docks, and parking lots. Commercial systems typically include multiple cameras, a centralized DVR or NVR, and optional cloud backup. Whether you need basic coverage or enterprise-grade video analytics, we deliver systems that meet industry standards and local compliance requirements.

IP Camera Installation

IP (Internet Protocol) cameras offer superior image quality and flexibility compared to analog systems. These digital cameras connect over your network and support HD and 4K resolution, built-in motion detection, and advanced features like two-way audio. Code Locksmith specializes in IP camera installation for Los Angeles properties, handling PoE (Power over Ethernet) wiring, switch configuration, and integration with recording software. IP cameras are ideal for both residential and commercial use, providing crisp footage for identification and incident review.

DVR/NVR Systems

Every security camera system needs a reliable recording device. DVR (Digital Video Recorder) systems work with analog and HD-over-coax cameras, while NVR (Network Video Recorder) systems support IP cameras and store footage on hard drives. Code Locksmith installs DVR and NVR units in secure locations with adequate storage capacity for days or weeks of continuous recording. We configure motion-triggered recording to save space, set up retention schedules, and ensure your footage is accessible for playback when you need it most.

Remote Monitoring Setup

View your security cameras from anywhere with remote monitoring. We configure mobile apps and web portals so you can watch live feeds and review recorded video on your phone, tablet, or computer. Remote access is secured with encrypted connections and optional two-factor authentication. Los Angeles homeowners and business owners use remote monitoring to check on deliveries, verify alarm events, and keep tabs on property while traveling. We provide step-by-step setup and training so you can confidently use your system.

Night Vision Cameras

Crime often happens after dark—so your security cameras need to see in low light. We install infrared (IR) night vision cameras that automatically switch to black-and-white mode when ambient light drops, illuminating the scene with invisible IR LEDs. Night vision ranges from 30 to 100+ feet depending on the model, ensuring clear footage of driveways, alleys, and perimeters at night. For areas with minimal light, we recommend cameras with starlight or low-light sensors for improved color visibility. Code Locksmith helps you choose the right night vision capabilities for your Los Angeles property.

Security System Maintenance

Security cameras and recorders require periodic maintenance to stay reliable. Code Locksmith offers maintenance plans that include lens cleaning, cable inspections, firmware updates, and hard drive health checks. We verify that all cameras are online, recordings are being saved correctly, and remote access still works. Regular maintenance prevents failures during critical moments and extends the life of your equipment. Los Angeles clients on our maintenance plan receive priority support and discounted repairs when needed.

Security Camera Installation Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about security cameras and CCTV systems in Los Angeles. Call (213) 449-7886 for installation and support.

Security camera installation costs vary based on the number of cameras, type (analog vs. IP), and whether you need a DVR/NVR. A basic 4-camera system with installation typically runs $800–$1,500; an 8-camera IP system can range from $1,500–$3,500. Code Locksmith provides free on-site estimates. Call (213) 449-7886 for a custom quote based on your property and needs.

DVR (Digital Video Recorder) systems use coaxial cables and work with analog or HD-over-coax cameras. NVR (Network Video Recorder) systems connect to IP cameras over your network (often via PoE) and typically support higher resolution and more advanced features. NVR systems are generally preferred for new installations due to better image quality and scalability. We can help you choose the right option for your Los Angeles property.

Yes. Most modern DVR/NVR systems and IP cameras include mobile apps for remote viewing. Code Locksmith configures remote access during installation so you can watch live footage, review recordings, and receive motion alerts on your smartphone or tablet from anywhere with internet. We ensure secure setup and walk you through the app so you can use it with confidence.

Yes. Security cameras with IR (infrared) night vision illuminate the scene with invisible LEDs and record in black-and-white when ambient light is low. Many cameras offer 30–100+ feet of night vision. For better color in low light, starlight or low-light sensors are available. We install night vision cameras appropriate for each location on your Los Angeles property.

Storage duration depends on hard drive size, number of cameras, resolution, and whether you use continuous or motion-only recording. A typical 4-camera 1080p system with a 2TB drive can store 2–4 weeks of motion-triggered video. Higher resolution and more cameras reduce retention. We size the recorder and configure recording settings to meet your desired retention period.

Residential security cameras on your own property typically do not require a permit if they only monitor your own premises. Commercial installations or cameras that record public areas may have different requirements. Code Locksmith follows local regulations and can advise on compliance. We focus on proper placement to respect privacy while maximizing security coverage.
