Plan the street entrance and rear access separately
For a Vancouver home or business, the busiest entrance may not be the only place that needs a camera. CMS Security can discuss front-door, rear-entry and garage views, with WiFi cameras, video doorbells and high-resolution wired systems selected for the installation.
Our service area includes Kitsilano, Dunbar, Downtown, Yaletown, East Vancouver and Point Grey. Tell us your location and the views you need when you request an installation estimate.

Wired camera systems
Plan high-resolution video coverage across the locations that matter to you, with camera positions, cable routes and recording arrangements considered together.
Planning camera installation in Vancouver
Keep the view focused on your property
If a camera faces a sidewalk or lane, define the doorway, gate or parking space you want to see. A useful installation aims at the relevant area rather than trying to capture everything nearby. Discuss the view from the proposed mounting point before deciding on camera placement.
Consider cable routes in finished buildings
In an existing property, the route from the camera to power or recording equipment can shape the installation. Tell us about finished rooms, accessible attic or utility spaces and any surfaces you want to avoid disturbing. Compare wiring options with the signal available at potential WiFi camera locations.
From your priorities to an installation plan

Vancouver camera installation questions
Should front and rear entrances use the same type of camera?
They do not have to. A doorbell may suit the front entrance while another camera type suits a rear door or garage. Each view should be assessed on its own.
Can you install cameras without assuming new wiring throughout?
We can discuss the available routes and WiFi options. The selected camera still needs suitable power and connectivity, which must be checked at its location.
How much does security camera installation cost?
The cost depends on the equipment, number of camera locations, cable routes and recording setup. Request a free estimate for your property; there is no single installation price that fits every layout.
Do WiFi cameras and wired systems offer the same features?
Features vary by equipment and service. Compare the views, recording arrangement, remote access and power or network requirements of the actual system being proposed.
