Overview

Security & Surveillance

Security is most effective when it is dependable day‑to‑day and easy to review when needed. We position PoE cameras for coverage and detail, size lenses for the scene, and set exposure for daytime and night conditions.

Storage is configured with practical retention so important events remain available. Roles and notifications are set so the right people receive alerts without noise.

Remote access is secured without opening public ports. For doors and access control we set schedules, holidays and audit logs and keep permissions clear so changes are straightforward.

A typical project starts with a walk‑through to identify entries, vehicle paths and areas that merit detail shots. We consider mounting height, sun angles and nighttime lighting, then select camera types that balance field of view and identification.

Cabling follows clean routes with protection where needed, and power and surge protection are planned from the start. After installation we confirm framing and focus, set motion zones, and test retention.

If access control is included, we verify fail‑safe/fail‑secure requirements with the AHJ, label door hardware and document credential enrollment. Finally, we provide a short reference on exporting clips and a service plan for periodic checks so the system continues to perform.

What We Do

Our Security & Surveillance Services

Every project is scoped and priced individually — no upsells, no surprises.

Cameras

PoE cameras sized to each scene — wide overviews, entries and license‑plate views — with attention to night performance. Retention and privacy zones are set appropriately. See also our ‘UniFi Camera Installation — Westchester County’ page for UniFi Protect specifics.

UniFi Protect

Unified cameras and doorbells with UNVR storage, smart detections and secure remote access. Roles and notifications are configured so alerts go to the right staff.

Access Control

Door hardware (strikes or maglocks), readers and controllers with schedules, holidays and audit logs. Integrates with cameras for event‑based bookmarks.

Lighting & Deterrence

Motion‑activated lighting, announcements and sirens support safety and deterrence. Lighting is coordinated with cameras for clearer nighttime footage.

Compliance

Retention policies that meet business and insurance requirements, user access controls, and export procedures for law enforcement. We document configurations for audits and handoff.

System Health & Monitoring

Checks for camera uptime, storage capacity and temperature, with alerts routed to the right contact. We schedule periodic reviews and keep a simple log so trends are easy to spot.

Export & Incident Support

Guidance on preserving footage, exporting clips with timestamps and sharing securely. We can assist with simple chain‑of‑custody notes when needed.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about security & surveillance in Westchester County, NY.

Do you offer remote viewing?

Yes. Remote access is secured through UniFi's cloud relay without opening public ports.

What resolution cameras do you install?

We size cameras to the scene and balance clarity with storage. Commonly 4–8MP for exterior views and entries; the G5 Pro offers 8MP with excellent low‑light performance.

Do you set motion zones?

Yes. We set zones and sensitivity to reduce false alerts from foliage, roads and reflections while capturing useful events.

How long is footage kept?

We configure retention to your needs and storage size, then document it in the project handoff.

Can cameras and access control work together?

Yes. We integrate UniFi Access door events with Protect so entries automatically bookmark nearby video for fast incident review.

Will you train our team?

Yes. We provide a brief walkthrough and a quick reference guide for exporting clips, changing credentials, and common tasks.

Do you work with existing camera systems or only UniFi?

We primarily install and service UniFi Protect for new systems. For mixed environments, we assess compatibility and advise on the best path forward.

How do I export footage for insurance or law enforcement?

We document the export procedure at handoff. UniFi Protect makes it straightforward to select a time range, export a clip with timestamps, and download it locally.

What is the difference between UNVR and UNVR Pro?

The UNVR holds 4 drives; the UNVR Pro holds 7. For longer retention or more cameras, the Pro is the right choice. We size storage at the design stage based on camera count, resolution, and retention goals.

Popular Projects & Case Studies

Examples of security & surveillance projects completed across Westchester County, NY.

  • White Plains retail — 12‑camera UniFi Protect system, UNVR Pro, 30‑day retention, role‑based access
  • Scarsdale residence — 8 G5 Pro cameras at perimeter + UniFi Access front door with audit log
  • Yonkers warehouse — motion‑zoned outdoor cameras with after‑hours mobile alerts

In-Depth Case Studies

  • Scarsdale Residence — 8-Camera Perimeter with UniFi Protect and Smart DetectionScarsdale, NY

    The owners wanted full perimeter coverage with minimal false alerts from trees and passing cars. We installed eight UniFi G5 Pro cameras — four wide-overview at corners and four tighter identification views at the driveway gate, front entry, and side entries — mounted at heights that eliminated wind-blown foliage from the frame. Motion zones excluded the tree line and street. UNVR Pro was configured for 30-day retention. After tuning, person-detection alerts dropped from dozens per day to only genuine events.

  • White Plains Professional Office — UniFi Access with Camera Event BookmarkingWhite Plains, NY

    A multi-tenant office needed controlled entry and a way to quickly review incidents without scrubbing through hours of footage. We installed a UniFi Access reader and electric strike on the main entry, with three G5 cameras covering the lobby, hallway, and parking level. Door events automatically bookmark nearby video in UniFi Protect, so a two-minute access log lookup finds the corresponding clip immediately. Role-based access limits camera viewing to managers while associates can only buzz the front door.
