Security Cameras & Video Surveillance
Commercial IP camera systems for businesses in Charlotte County. We handle everything from site survey to installation to ongoing support. Your footage stays on your property, and you own your equipment outright.
Commercial Security Cameras
We install commercial-grade IP cameras built for business environments. High-resolution imaging, durable housings, and reliable firmware from manufacturers with proper support channels.
- HD and 4K resolution options
- Weatherproof housings for Florida conditions
- Commercial manufacturers with long-term support

Secure Network Infrastructure
Your camera system runs on a dedicated network, isolated from your business WiFi and computers. PoE switches, proper cabling, and surge protection rated for Florida's lightning-prone environment. If someone compromises your office network, your camera footage stays secure.
- PoE switches for clean power delivery
- Surge protection for lightning-prone areas
- Network isolation from business traffic

- Site survey and coverage planning
- Entry points and parking coverage
- High-value area monitoring
- Blind spot identification
Professional Camera Installation
Most security companies subcontract their installation work or send whoever's available. We keep installation in-house with the same technicians who designed your system. That means fewer miscommunications, cleaner work, and someone who actually understands why each camera is where it is.
Licensed Electrical Contractor
Florida EC license EC13012737. We can run power, install conduit, and do electrical work that other security installers legally cannot.
Own Equipment
We have our own bucket truck (F550, 41' Altec boom) for exterior and parking lot camera installations. No waiting on rental equipment.
Proper Installation
Cameras mounted securely with weather-appropriate housings. Clean cable runs in conduit where needed. Systems that hold up in Florida conditions.
Site Survey Included
We walk your property, identify the right camera locations, and provide a detailed quote before any work begins.
Commercial-Grade Hardware

Access Control & Keyless Entry
Commercial access control for Charlotte County businesses. We install Axis door controllers with readers, keypads, and intercoms from manufacturers who support their products for years—not consumer brands that lose cloud support and leave you stranded.

Physical keys get lost, copied, and passed around. Access control lets you add or revoke credentials in seconds, track who enters when, and set schedules that match your operations.
- Add/revoke credentials instantly
- No rekeying when employees leave
- Full access logs and audit trails
- Schedule-based door control
Commercial-Grade Hardware

Licensed Installation
Florida EC license EC13012737. We handle the low-voltage wiring, door hardware coordination, electric strikes, mag locks, and any electrical work required for a complete installation.
- Electric strike & mag lock wiring
- Door position sensor installation
- Request-to-exit device setup

Commercial Access Control Applications
Access control makes sense anywhere you need to manage who enters a space. The right system depends on your facility, traffic patterns, and what you're protecting.
Small Business & Offices
Control main entry points, server rooms, and executive offices. Issue credentials to employees and revoke access instantly when someone leaves.
Medical & Dental Offices
Protect patient records, medication storage, and private areas. HIPAA compliance requires knowing who accessed what and when.
Property Management
Manage tenant access across multiple doors and common areas. Issue temporary credentials for contractors without distributing physical keys.
Warehouses & Storage
Secure loading docks, inventory areas, and equipment rooms. Gate access for delivery drivers with full entry/exit logging.
Retail & Restaurants
Back-of-house access control for stockrooms, offices, and cash handling areas. Different access levels for managers and staff.
Multi-Tenant Buildings
Common area access, individual suite control, and visitor management. Centralized administration across all tenants and spaces.
Intrusion & Burglar Alarms
Commercial intrusion detection systems for businesses that need real protection, not just a sticker on the window. We install commercial-grade alarm panels and sensors designed for business environments, with 24/7 professional monitoring options.
24/7 Professional Monitoring
When an alarm triggers after hours, a trained operator verifies the event and dispatches police. Response times matter—professional monitoring ensures someone is always watching.
- UL-listed central monitoring stations
- Immediate police/fire dispatch
- Event verification protocols
- Backup communication paths
Commercial-Grade Hardware
We install commercial alarm panels and sensors built for business environments. Reliable detection with minimal false alarms that waste time and credibility with monitoring services.
- Commercial alarm panels
- Tamper-resistant sensors
- Battery backup systems
- Cellular & IP communication
Professional Installation
Sensors positioned based on your facility layout, entry points, and traffic patterns. Proper installation means reliable detection without nuisance alarms from HVAC or normal building activity.
- Site-specific sensor placement
- Zone programming & testing
- User training included
- Monitoring setup & verification
Detection & Sensor Types
A complete alarm system uses multiple sensor types to detect intrusion at different stages. We design coverage based on your facility's vulnerabilities and what you're protecting.
Perimeter Detection
Door and window contacts detect entry attempts at the point of breach. Glass break sensors cover large window areas without requiring individual contacts on every pane.
Interior Motion Detection
PIR motion sensors positioned to cover likely paths through your facility. Properly placed to catch intruders while avoiding false triggers from HVAC, lighting changes, or expected movement.
Environmental Monitoring
Water sensors for flood detection, temperature sensors for freezer and server room monitoring. Protect against threats beyond break-ins that can damage inventory and equipment.
Panic & Duress Signals
Fixed and portable panic buttons for staff safety. Silent duress signals when you need to alert authorities without escalating a situation.
Commercial Alarm Applications
Every business has different security needs. We design alarm systems based on what you're protecting, when you're most vulnerable, and how you want to respond to events.
Retail Stores
After-hours protection for inventory and cash handling areas. Panic buttons for robbery situations. Verified response to reduce false dispatch.
Offices & Professional Services
Protect equipment, documents, and client information. Zone-based arming so cleaning crews can access common areas while sensitive spaces stay secured.
Warehouses & Industrial
Perimeter detection across large facilities. Loading dock protection. Motion coverage for high-value inventory areas.
Medical Facilities
Protect pharmaceutical storage and patient record areas. Panic buttons for staff safety. Compliance with healthcare security requirements.
Charlotte County Security Systems
Security cameras, access control, and intrusion alarms for businesses throughout Charlotte County. We're based here, we know the area, and we respond when you need service—not days later when someone's available from Tampa or Fort Myers.
Commercial security systems require ongoing attention. Cameras get bumped out of alignment, NVRs need storage management, access credentials change as staff turns over, and alarm zones need adjustment as your facility changes. Local service means these issues get resolved quickly, not whenever a regional company can fit you in.
Southwest Florida destroys cheap security equipment. Humidity corrodes exposed connections. Salt air near the coast attacks housings. Afternoon lightning storms fry unprotected systems. Hurricane season tests every mount and seal. We've installed cameras that lasted through Ian—because we use commercial housings, proper surge protection, and installation methods designed for this environment.
Primary service area:
- Punta Gorda
- Port Charlotte
- North Port
- Englewood
- Murdock

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about commercial security systems, installation, and service in Charlotte County.
Do your camera systems require monthly fees?
No. Your camera system works completely without any subscription. You can view live footage, search recordings, and manage everything locally. We offer an optional cloud service for remote viewing and off-site backup, but your system functions fully without it.
Why use commercial cameras instead of consumer brands?
Consumer cameras from Ring, Wyze, or Blink are designed for residential use and typically require cloud subscriptions to be useful. They fail faster in commercial environments with 24/7 operation. Commercial IP cameras (sometimes called CCTV) from Axis and Digital Watchdog have better image quality, longer warranties, reliable firmware updates, and work completely offline.
What's included in a camera system installation?
Our base installation includes professional mounting and positioning, network video recorder with 30+ days storage, commercial-grade IP cameras, complete system configuration, and a 1-year warranty. Networking hardware (switches, cabling) is quoted separately if not already present. We provide a complete quote after the site survey.
How long does installation take?
A typical 4-camera system takes one day. Larger systems or installations requiring significant cabling work may take 2-3 days. Access control and alarm installations depend on the number of doors and zones. We'll provide a timeline during the site survey.
Can you add to an existing security system?
Usually, yes. If your existing NVR has capacity or your alarm panel has available zones, we can expand what you have. We'll assess your current setup and let you know what's possible versus what requires new equipment.
Why Axis for access control instead of other brands?
Axis door controllers offer excellent build quality, reliable firmware with long-term support, and straightforward integration with camera systems. They're a proven commercial solution that we can support locally—not proprietary hardware that requires calling the manufacturer for every change.
Do you offer professional monitoring for alarms?
Yes. We work with established central monitoring stations for 24/7 professional monitoring. We can also set up self-monitoring via smartphone alerts if you prefer to handle response yourself. We'll help you decide what makes sense based on your response time needs and budget.
What areas do you service?
We're based in Punta Gorda and serve businesses throughout Charlotte County including Port Charlotte, North Port, Englewood, and Murdock. We also take projects in surrounding areas for commercial installations. Contact us to discuss your location.
