Security Cameras

Security cameras for the shop, yard, and trailer.

Self-monitored camera systems for contractors and home-service businesses in Northeast Ohio. You own the gear, alerts go to your phone, and there's no monthly monitoring contract.

The average job-site theft costs a contractor around $30,000, and less than a quarter of stolen equipment is ever recovered, according to National Insurance Crime Bureau and National Equipment Register data. A few well-placed cameras on the gate, the tool crib, and the trailer parking change that math.

Typical job: 1 to 2 days on site

Gear: Ubiquiti UniFi Protect

Tuscarawas, Holmes, Coshocton, Harrison, Stark, Wayne, Medina

What's Included

Site walk and camera plan

I walk the property with you and map the blind spots: the gate, the tool crib, trailer parking, the office door. You get a plan and a price before anything gets mounted.

Ubiquiti UniFi Protect cameras and recorder

Commercial-grade cameras recording to a UniFi recorder in your building. No cloud storage fee, and the footage is yours.

Clean install

Cabling run properly, cameras mounted and aimed, everything rated for an Ohio winter. I test every view before I leave.

Phone alerts and handoff

Motion alerts and remote viewing set up on your phone and your foreman's. I walk you through it, and I'm still a call away after.

Common Questions

Do I need a license to install cameras in Ohio?

No. Ohio exempts low-voltage camera installation from electrical contractor licensing (ORC 4740.13(D)). Only monitored alarm service with guard response needs separate licensing through the Ohio Department of Public Safety. I install self-monitored systems you control.

Is this a monitoring contract?

No. You own the cameras and the recorder, and the alerts go to you. There's no monthly fee to me or anyone else to keep it running.

Will it work on my current internet and Wi-Fi?

Usually. If your network can't handle it, I'll tell you before the install, not after. Shop Wi-Fi and cameras often make sense as one job.
