Wired or wireless cameras for Greenpoint buildings?

For Greenpoint’s waterfront condos and pre-war walk-ups, wired PoE cameras are the only professional option. WiFi cameras can’t reliably penetrate the thick walls and floors of Greenpoint buildings. PoE (Power over Ethernet) delivers both power and data through a single Cat6 cable — stable 4K video with zero WiFi interference. Every Greenpoint installation uses wired systems.

Yes. Every camera we install in Greenpoint includes infrared night vision for zero-light recording. For Greenpoint properties with waterfront towers, walk-up stoops, and nightlife corridors, we also install color night vision cameras that capture full-color footage using ambient streetlight — critical for identifying clothing colors and vehicle details. Night vision range: 100-200+ feet depending on the camera model.

Can I watch my Greenpoint cameras from my phone?

Yes — included free with every Greenpoint installation. Live video, recorded playback, motion alerts, and two-way audio on your smartphone from anywhere in the world. No monthly fee for remote access. We set up the app on your phone before leaving your Greenpoint property and walk you through every feature.

How do I stop package theft at my Greenpoint property?

A 4K camera aimed at your Greenpoint stoop or lobby entrance captures package thieves in facial-recognition quality. Active deterrent cameras with built-in sirens and strobes scare them off before they grab anything. For Greenpoint apartment buildings, lobby cameras paired with a video intercom ensure only authorized visitors enter. We design anti-theft camera layouts specifically for Greenpoint’s waterfront condos and pre-war walk-ups.

How do you hide camera wires on a Greenpoint property?

All cables at your Greenpoint property are concealed inside walls, through attics, basements, and existing conduit paths. Zero exposed wiring on the exterior. For Greenpoint’s waterfront condos and pre-war walk-ups, we use fish tape and specialized tools to route cables through finished walls without patching or painting. The only visible elements are the cameras themselves.

With the NVR systems we install in Greenpoint, you get 30-90+ days of continuous 24/7 recording depending on camera count and hard drive size.

We size the NVR hard drive to your specific Greenpoint system.

Can you add cameras to my existing system in Greenpoint?

Yes. If your Greenpoint property has an existing NVR with available channels, we add cameras to your current system without replacing anything. If your NVR is full or outdated, we upgrade it while keeping your existing cameras and wiring. For Greenpoint properties that started with 4 cameras and need 8, expansion is straightforward.

What camera brands do you install in Greenpoint?

We install Hikvision, Dahua, and Lorex — commercial-grade brands built for 24/7 recording in NYC conditions. We don’t install Ring, Nest, Arlo, Wyze, or Night Owl — these consumer WiFi cameras aren’t reliable enough for Greenpoint’s waterfront condos and pre-war walk-ups. Our cameras deliver true 4K resolution, weatherproof housings, and PoE wiring with zero monthly fees.

Are there monthly fees for cameras in Greenpoint?

No. Zero monthly fees, zero subscriptions, zero contracts. Your Greenpoint camera system records locally to an NVR at your property. Remote smartphone access is free. You own the entire system outright. This is a one-time investment — not a recurring expense.
