CCTV

Wired CCTV or WiFi cameras for a Markham property?

Markham has a lot of newer homes with finished basements and attached garages, so wired PoE (CCTV) IP cameras are often easy to run and give you the most reliable recording because they do not rely on your WiFi. WiFi cameras suit condos, townhouses and rentals where drilling is limited. We install indoor and outdoor cameras and help you choose by property, internet and number of cameras.

Wired CCTV (DVR/NVR)

More stable, and ideal for long-term use or larger properties.

WiFi cameras

Easier to install, and good for smaller spaces or rentals.

Security camera installation cost

How much does security camera installation cost in Markham?

Markham pricing in short: WiFi camera installation starts at $200 for 1 or 2 cameras, before tax, and wired CCTV with a recorder (NVR or DVR) is quoted per property. A detached house with a long driveway and a detached garage needs more cable than a townhouse, so we price it after seeing a few photos. The same logic applies to commercial video surveillance in a Markham business park. Quotes are free, with a written price before any work starts.

Wired CCTV system (NVR/DVR)

What changes the price of a camera system in Markham:

  • How many cameras you need, and whether the garage and side gate need their own view
  • The cable route from the recorder: finished basement, attic or exterior wall
  • Wall and siding type, such as brick, stucco or vinyl on newer homes
  • Wired PoE cameras with a recorder (NVR), or WiFi cameras on your network
  • For business units: loading doors, parking area and the number of entrances

Security cameras for every kind of Markham property

Markham ranges from the older streets of Unionville and Markham Village to large newer subdivisions such as Cornell and Berczy Village, condo towers around Downtown Markham and Highway 7, and business parks along Highway 404. Each needs a different camera plan, so we ask about your property before we come. We handle residential security camera installation and commercial video surveillance, so a house or a unit in a business park deals with the same installation company.

Unionville and Markham Village

Older streets with detached homes and finished basements. We check the cable route first and cover the front door, driveway and side gate without drilling more than needed.

Cornell, Berczy Village and Cachet

Newer subdivisions where houses sit close together and garages face the street. We aim every camera at your own driveway and entrance and keep neighbours’ windows out of the frame.

Thornhill and Angus Glen

Larger lots and long driveways mean longer cable runs. Wired PoE cameras suit these properties because the signal does not depend on WiFi range.

Condos around Downtown Markham and Highway 7

In a condo, check your building’s rules before mounting anything outside your unit. Many owners choose a doorbell or a WiFi camera for the entry.

Business parks along Highway 404

Video surveillance for offices, workshops, showrooms and distribution units. We plan entrances, loading areas and parking, and can do a walkthrough first.

Where should security cameras go on a Markham home?

Start with the places people use to get in. Most Markham houses have an attached garage, a front entrance on a quiet street and a back gate, so those three views come first. Aim each camera at your own property. Our guide to where a camera can legally point explains the rules.

Front door

See visitors and parcel deliveries. A camera above the door or a doorbell camera works well.

Driveway and garage door

Covers cars and anyone walking up to the house, day and night.

Side gate

Side gates are a common way in that the street cannot see.

Backyard

Back doors, decks and sheds, aimed at your own yard only.

Unit entrances and loading doors

For business units: entrances, shipping doors and the parking area. We suggest a walkthrough first.

How your camera install works

Getting cameras installed takes three steps: send us your property details, pick a time 7 days a week, and a technician installs and tests the system with you. Most homes with 2 to 6 cameras are done in one visit, and you pay only after everything works on your phone.

Yes. We mount cameras inside, such as in garages and entrance halls, and outside on walls, soffits and eaves, and we run the cables so they stay hidden. Wired PoE IP cameras are a good choice outside because they do not depend on your WiFi signal.
