Security cameras

Security cameras for commercial buildings and business environments

Opticable installs and manages IP camera systems for commercial buildings, multi-tenant properties, and business environments. Every project is planned around your sensitive areas, access points, and operating requirements, with ongoing support after commissioning.

Security cameras

What we install and manage

  • IP and PoE cameras for interior, exterior, entry, parking, and perimeter areas
  • NVRs and camera platforms with continuous, motion-based, or rule-based recording
  • Remote viewing from a computer, tablet, or phone
  • AI-enabled detection for people, vehicles, or zones when the project calls for it
  • Detailed event search that makes incidents easier to review without scrubbing footage blindly
  • Management, updates, equipment replacement, and technical support

Unified ecosystem

Unified ecosystem for cameras, intercom, and access control

Your cameras can belong to the same ecosystem as the intercom and access control system, with one management platform to monitor, manage entry, and communicate at the door. One partner, one coordinated installation.

Buildings

Where these systems fit

  • Office buildings and commercial towers
  • Multi-tenant buildings and controlled-entry residences
  • Retail spaces, boutiques, and point-of-sale environments
  • Warehouses and industrial sites
  • Hotels and commercial hospitality properties

Process

How the work is handled

  • 01 - Area review: entries, blind spots, risk zones, and installation constraints.
  • 02 - Clear proposal: number of cameras, hardware, resolution, storage, and cabling detailed in the quote.
  • 03 - Coordinated installation: structured cabling, clean mounting, NVR configuration, and testing of every camera.
  • 04 - Handover and support: documented system, basic training, and availability for ongoing management.

A useful camera system starts with a defined scene

Store, warehouse or managed building: explain what your team needs to verify, during the day and at night. A general overview and identifiable detail require different design choices.

Priority coverage

Entrances, loading areas, parking and checkout: define the scene, distance and obstructions. Camera angle, lighting and lens choice matter as much as resolution.

Network and recording

The scope considers cabling, PoE power, network capacity, storage and the recording-retention period you need.

Access and handover

Identify authorized users and remote-viewing needs. The quote defines the equipment, installation and configuration included in the proposed scope.

Considering AI loss prevention? Feed compatibility and gesture visibility need assessment. An alert always calls for human review.

Before the quote

What defines a useful camera-system quote

The scope should start with areas to see and retention needs, not only a camera count.

Coverage

Entrances, parking, corridors, loading, point of sale, perimeter or job site.

Recording

Retention days, remote viewing and authorized users.

Infrastructure

Existing cameras, network, PoE, recorder and available cable paths.

FAQ

Common questions about security cameras

Quick answers to common questions before a site visit or quote.

Can existing cameras be reused?

Sometimes. We review condition, compatibility, angles, network and recording before recommending replacement.

Can cameras be viewed remotely?

Yes. Systems can be configured for remote access with user permissions appropriate to the site.

Do you install construction-site cameras?

Yes. Temporary and job-site cameras can be deployed with the network infrastructure they require.
