What changes the price

  • Number of cameras. The biggest factor. Our price per extra camera drops after the first.
  • Wire-free, plug-in or wired. Battery cameras mount fastest. Wired systems need cable runs and holes, which is why installers charge more for them.
  • Height and walls. Second-story eaves and masonry take longer.
  • Recorder and app set-up. A system with a recorder (NVR) needs every camera added and tested on it.
