Commercial Video Surveillance & CCTV, GTA

Commercial video surveillance, built for business.

We design IP camera systems for offices, warehouses, retail, condominiums and construction sites: the right cameras, recording and remote viewing, installed and maintained by one team.

• Entrances, lobbies, parking and loading docks
• High-resolution recording with the retention your business needs
• Remote viewing for owners and managers
• Camera health monitoring and multi-site management from one place
• Integration with access control and alarms

What a commercial video surveillance system includes

A commercial system is more than cameras. It is the cameras, the cabling and power, the recorder and storage, the network, the software people use every day, and the support behind it. We design each part around your building and the questions you need video to answer: who came in, what happened, and when.

• IP cameras matched to each location: entrances, lobbies, parking, loading docks, stock rooms and perimeters
• PoE cabling and switches with battery backup so cameras keep recording through a short outage
• Recorders sized for the number of cameras and the retention period you need
• Remote viewing for owners and managers on a phone, tablet or computer
• Camera health monitoring so a failed camera is noticed, not discovered after an incident

How we plan coverage

We walk the site with you, note entrances, blind spots, lighting and power, and decide what each camera must see. A face at a door needs a different camera and position than a wide view of a yard. We choose lenses and night performance for the conditions and place cameras high enough to resist tampering.

Video that works with the rest of your security

Cameras are most useful when they work with access control and alarm systems: a door event can bring up the matching video, and an alarm can be checked on camera. For sites that are empty after hours we also offer live video monitoring through API Alarm.

Brands and support

We install and support leading brands including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Speco and GeoVision. After installation we train your team, stay available for service and upgrades, and can inspect and advise on existing systems too.

License plate recognition and facial recognition

Some cameras support license plate recognition (LPR), which logs vehicles at a gate, lot entrance or loading area and can flag a plate on a list. This is well suited to dealership lots, condominium garages, warehouse yards and gated sites.

Facial recognition is a more sensitive technology. We use it mainly as an access-control credential, for example to open a staff-only door, rather than to identify members of the public on camera. Facial recognition and other biometric features involve extra privacy obligations under Canadian privacy law, including clear notice and consent, so we review this with you before it goes in. See our guide on camera privacy rules in Ontario.

Privacy and signage

Recording people brings privacy responsibilities. Place cameras where they are justified, post clear signs, limit who can view and export footage and set a written retention period. Our guide to camera privacy rules in Ontario explains the basics. This is general information, not legal advice.
