Are you interested in a video surveillance system for a commercial or residential location? This field is required.


(By selecting this answer you will be redirected to our home surveillance systems page)

How would you best describe your current video surveillance needs? [?] This field is required.



CCTV hardware from different manufacturers is almost always interoperable, so you should be able to use existing cameras, monitors, or recorders with new equipment. The main exceptions are that lenses have to be carefully matched to cameras, and pan-tilt-zoom cameras may require specific control systems.

What is your buying timeframe for this surveillance camera system? This field is required.




What type of video surveillance system are you interested in? [?] This field is required.




Digital video recorders (DVRs) are the standard for modern video security. They’re easier to use than VCRs, the images don’t degrade over time, they offer much more recording time, and make it easy to find specific times or events on tape.

Approximately how many surveillance cameras do you need for your system? This field is required.






Where will the video surveillance cameras be located? [?] This field is required.




Because outdoor cameras require protection from the elements and must adapt to changing lighting situations, they will drive your overall costs up. In contrast, indoor cameras face fairly static conditions and are less expensive.

What best describes your commercial location? This field is required.







(note that our suppliers will not follow-up on residential requests)

What is the approximate square footage of this commercial location? [?] This field is required.






Are you interested in professional installation services for this video surveillance system? [?] This field is required.



To measure the square footage of a location, multiply its length by its width by its number of floors. Please use the information below for further help with estimating your locations square footage: A tennis court is roughly 2,500 sq. ft. A basketball court is approximately 5,000 sq. ft. A football field is roughly 50,000 sq. ft.

Video security systems for business are more complex than the home video systems you might be familiar with. CCTV vendors bring an expert understanding of lighting, optics, wiring, security, and more to help your video surveillance system perform to expectations. We recommend professional installation for all but the very smallest systems.

What is your estimated budget for this video surveillance system? This field is required.

Please note: As a very rough rule of thumb, a complete installed system will cost $500 to $1,000 per camera, plus the cost of your recording device. For a more thorough breakdown of video surveillance pricing, please read our Quick Guide to Video Surveillance Systems Pricing.
