FAQ
What’s the best type of security system for renters?
Renters and apartment residents have plenty of options—even if you can’t make permanent modifications to the property. Wireless systems are ideal since they don’t require hardwiring. Devices like battery-powered cameras, Wi-Fi-enabled intercoms, and magnetic door sensors can be installed with minimal drilling and removed when you move out.
Tenants in larger buildings can also benefit from smart intercoms, personal doorbell cameras, or app-controlled access systems. Many newer apartment complexes already have integrated access control systems that can be enhanced with individual security upgrades. Always check with your landlord before installing equipment that modifies the entry system or common areas.
How do security systems help manage multi-tenant buildings?
Multi-unit buildings—such as apartment complexes, medical offices, or mixed-use spaces—can greatly benefit from centralized security management. IP-based intercoms, video entry systems, and access control networks allow property managers to easily monitor and grant access to tenants, maintenance crews, or delivery personnel.
These systems reduce the need for physical keys and increase safety by tracking who enters and when. Some also integrate with property management software or tenant apps, streamlining the entire building operation while maintaining strong security at each point of entry.
What features should I look for in a modern intercom system?
Modern intercoms do much more than just transmit audio. Look for these features:
Video capability (for visual ID of visitors)
Mobile app integration (answer from anywhere)
IP-based systems (better quality and flexibility)
Remote unlock function
Directory options for multi-unit buildings
Durability/weatherproofing for exterior units
Intercom systems today often integrate with broader access control systems and can be expanded or upgraded easily.
How long is recorded footage stored?
That depends on your storage system. Local DVRs/NVRs typically store 7–30 days of footage, depending on the number of cameras, recording quality, and storage capacity. Cloud systems often offer flexible plans where you can store footage for 7, 14, or 30+ days.
We can help you choose the best storage plan based on your security goals and data retention needs.
Is my information secure with a cloud-based system?
Security is a top priority. We work with cloud platforms that use end-to-end encryption, two-factor authentication, and secure servers. Cloud systems are generally just as safe—if not safer—than local storage, especially if your system is properly configured.
We’ll walk you through all available options and help you select the most secure setup for your needs.
Can security systems integrate with smart home devices?
Yes, many modern security systems integrate seamlessly with smart home platforms like Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and more. This allows users to control lights, locks, thermostats, and even view security cameras using voice commands or smartphone apps. Integration improves convenience and lets you automate routines—for example, locking doors and activating cameras when you say "Goodnight" or leave for work. We help clients set up these connections to ensure compatibility and security.
What security options are most useful for commercial properties?
Commercial properties—whether storefronts, warehouses, or offices—have unique needs. The most effective systems often include a mix of video surveillance, access control, and intrusion detection. CCTV systems are essential for monitoring entrances, employee activity, and inventory. Access control systems (keycards, PIN pads, or mobile credentials) help regulate who enters sensitive areas.
For customer-facing businesses, intercoms and door buzzers can help screen visitors, while panic buttons or silent alarms may be used for cash-handling stations. Queens businesses also benefit from remote monitoring options that let you check camera feeds or grant access from anywhere.
How is AI being used in modern security systems?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming how security systems operate by enabling smarter, more proactive monitoring. Today’s AI-powered cameras can distinguish between people, animals, and vehicles—reducing false alarms and providing more accurate alerts. Some systems offer facial recognition, license plate reading, and motion-based tracking to help identify threats or automate responses.
AI is also being used in video analytics, which allows businesses to analyze customer flow, detect loitering, or flag unusual behavior. For multi-unit buildings, AI-enabled intercoms can recognize frequent visitors or detect tailgating. These features make security systems more intelligent, efficient, and responsive—helping property owners in Queens stay ahead of potential risks.
Can security systems help reduce liability or legal risk?
Yes—especially in commercial and multi-tenant environments. Having a surveillance system in place can provide video evidence in case of theft, accidents, or disputes. It can also help prove that proper security measures were in place, which can be important in legal scenarios.
Access control logs also create a timestamped record of who entered the premises, which is useful for internal security or when investigating incidents.
What happens if there’s a power outage or internet disruption?
Modern systems are designed with fail-safes. Most equipment includes battery backups that allow it to function during short-term power outages. Network-based systems may temporarily lose remote access during internet interruptions, but footage can still be recorded locally if the storage device is hardwired.
We also offer UPS (uninterruptible power supply) units and network redundancy options for mission-critical setups.
Can I expand my system later?
Absolutely. Most of our systems are modular and scalable, meaning you can start with a basic setup and expand as your needs grow. Whether you're adding more cameras, intercoms, or integrating with smart home or office systems, we’ll make sure your infrastructure supports future upgrades.
How often should a security system be updated or reviewed?
It’s a good practice to review your system at least once a year. Technology evolves quickly, and updates may be available to improve performance, fix bugs, or add features. Outdated equipment can become a vulnerability, so it's important to check software, camera placement, access logs, and backup systems regularly. We recommend scheduling annual inspections—especially for commercial or multi-tenant properties—to ensure your security remains effective and up to date.
