Package and mailroom theft
The most frequent resident complaint. A face-height camera at the mailroom door and a dome inside solve it.

What a condo surveillance system has to solve
We start every design with the incidents you actually deal with, then put a camera where each one happens. These are the five we plan for on every building job.
Garage break-ins and damage
Column-mounted cameras on every level, WDR at the ramps and plate capture at the entry.
Fob sharing and tailgating
Cameras tied to the access system show who used which fob and who followed them in.
Resident safety and disputes
Elevators, stairwells, amenity rooms and corridors recorded with controlled playback for management.
Liability and insurance claims
Slips at the entrance, pool incidents and loading dock damage need footage, often weeks later.
Where the security cameras go in a condo
A security camera installation plan for condos and multi-tenant buildings is a list of positions, not a camera count. This is the coverage plan we start from on the site visit and adapt to your building.

Mounting heights are our field standard: around 3 metres for faces, 4 to 5 for overviews, 6 and up for yards with a narrow lens or a PTZ. Lens choice is set per position during the site visit.
Best security cameras for condos
These are the camera types we specify most often for condos and multi-tenant buildings, and the positions they earn on a building plan. We install them from Uniview, Axis, Hikvision, Dahua, Ubiquiti and Verkada depending on the budget and the software you want to live in.
Dome cameras
Vandal-resistant domes for lobbies, corridors, parking garages and retail floors. Nobody can tell where the lens points, and the housing takes a hit without losing the picture.
Turret cameras
Our default outdoor camera for storefronts, loading docks and yards. The ball-in-socket design aims easily, the IR sits away from the lens so there is no glare, and the housing shrugs off snow.
Licence plate cameras
Purpose-built cameras that capture plates at entrances, gates and drive-throughs day and night, with the plate number searchable in the recorder.
Fisheye and 360 cameras
One ceiling camera that sees a whole open floor with no blind spot. We use them in packing areas, showrooms and restaurants where wall space is scarce.
Multi-sensor cameras
Two to four lenses in one housing that cover 180 or 270 degrees in full resolution. We installed the first multi-lens Uniview camera in Canada and use them on building corners.
Bullet cameras
Long-range cameras for fence lines, laneways, gates and large parking lots. Varifocal lenses let us read a plate or a face from 30 metres and beyond.

Condo security camera questions we get asked
Straight answers on camera count, equipment, retention and cost. If yours is not here, call us and ask.
Does the condo board need to approve cameras?
Yes. The board authorises cameras on common elements under the Condominium Act, and the corporation should disclose the system, post notices and keep a retention and access policy. Individual owners cannot install cameras in shared areas. We provide the documents the board needs.
Can residents request footage?
Footage from common elements is part of the corporation's records and can be requested within the rules of the Act. We set retention to 60 to 90 days and train management on handling requests.
Can you upgrade our old analog system without rewiring?
Usually yes. If the coax or Cat5e is sound we replace the cameras and recorder with 4K equipment on the same cable, which costs a fraction of a new install.
Can the cameras work with our intercom and fobs?
Yes. We integrate BAS-IP, Ubiquiti and other intercoms and access systems so a fob event or a call shows the matching clip at the concierge desk.
How do you install in an occupied building?
In phases with resident notices, no elevator or lane closures without warning, and existing coverage kept live until each new area takes over.
What does a condo camera system cost?
A townhouse complex runs $5,500 to $12,000 installed, a mid-rise with garage $16,000 to $36,000 and a high-rise tower $40,000 to $95,000. Upgrades on existing cable run $250 to $450 per camera.
