AI-powered detection distinguishes people, vehicles, and animals to reduce false alerts.

For Manhattan Beach properties with beachfront, pools, multi-car garages, and high-value interiors, we also install color night vision cameras that capture full-color footage using ambient streetlight — critical for identifying clothing colors and vehicle details.

Can I watch my Manhattan Beach cameras from my phone?

How do you hide camera wires on a Manhattan Beach property?

All cables at your Manhattan Beach property are concealed inside walls, through attics, basements, and existing conduit paths. Zero exposed wiring on the exterior. For Manhattan Beach’s luxury waterfront homes along Oriental Boulevard, 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 Manhattan Beach, 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 Manhattan Beach system.

Can you add cameras to my existing system in Manhattan Beach?

Yes. If your Manhattan Beach 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 If your NVR is full or outdated, we upgrade it while keeping your existing cameras and wiring.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 Manhattan Beach properties that started with 4 cameras and need 8, expansion is straightforward.

An 8-camera system with NVR, wiring, and app setup takes 6-8 hours. You’ll have a fully operational security camera system at your Manhattan Beach property before we leave.

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 Manhattan Beach’s luxury waterfront homes along Oriental Boulevard. Our cameras deliver true 4K resolution, weatherproof housings, and PoE wiring with zero monthly fees.

No. Zero monthly fees, zero subscriptions, zero contracts. Your Manhattan Beach 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.
