CCTV coverage for Montclair homes and businesses.
We design camera layouts that actually cover Montclair entrances, parking, and blind spots — installed and configured start to finish.
Policed by the Montclair Police Department
Montclair maintains its own police department, so permits, response, and dispatch all run through the Montclair Police Department rather than the San Bernardino County Sheriff.
Montclair’s mix of retail along the Montclair Place corridor and surrounding residential neighborhoods means we regularly design both commercial and residential camera systems in the city.

Camera system design for Montclair properties
Camera coverage in Montclair is a placement problem before it is an equipment problem. Properties along Central Avenue, Holt Boulevard, and Mission Boulevard deal with street-facing exposure, while interior lots and yards need something different. We would rather install six cameras positioned correctly than twelve that all watch the same driveway.
Working mostly with retail, restaurants, distribution, and auto sales here, the pattern we see is that large retail parking areas here are the main loss exposure, which makes exterior camera coverage the priority over interior devices. That single observation usually changes the camera plan more than any spec sheet does.
We build IP systems on network video recorders rather than legacy analog DVRs. IP cameras either work or they do not, without the pixelation and interference analog systems develop as they age, and they support on-board analytics and active deterrence lighting. If you already have a working DVR system, we will still service and expand it rather than push a full replacement you do not need.
Exterior work in Montclair gets weatherproof-rated cable in conduit and junction boxes rated for the location. Given 1970s retail with ongoing redevelopment, the routing is often the hardest part of the job, and it is where a careful install separates itself from a fast one.
Who do I contact if Montclair authorities request camera footage?
If local law enforcement ever requests footage related to an incident on your property, we can help you locate and export it quickly.
How much does a camera system cost in Montclair?
Cost depends on the number of cameras, resolution, and whether you need on-site storage or cloud backup. We provide a free on-site walkthrough and written estimate before any work begins on a Montclair property.
Do you install both indoor and outdoor cameras in Montclair?
Yes — we design systems that mix indoor and outdoor cameras as needed, using weatherproof, vandal-resistant models for exterior coverage on Montclair properties.
Can you expand or repair an existing camera system in Montclair?
Yes. If you have a working DVR or NVR we will service and expand it rather than push a full replacement. When a system genuinely cannot be expanded further we will explain why before recommending anything new.
How much video history will my Montclair system keep?
That depends on camera count, resolution, and how much drive space is installed. Most commercial properties land between two weeks and a month of continuous recording. We size storage during design so you are not guessing after the fact.
