What a system like this actually costs
The honest answer is that it depends on camera count, resolution, how much of the site is outdoors, and whether you need analytics. But businesses deserve a real range rather than a runaround, so here is ours. A small commercial system covering entrances, a register area and a back door typically lands between $3,500 and $7,000 installed. A mid-sized warehouse, dealership or multi-tenant building running eight to sixteen cameras usually falls between $6,000 and $14,000. Large industrial sites, multi-building campuses, or anything requiring thermal, license plate recognition or fiber runs go up from there.
What moves the number most is rarely the cameras themselves. It is cable runs through finished ceilings, trenching between buildings, conduit on exterior walls, and the storage required to hold the retention period you actually need. That is precisely why we survey before quoting: the same eight cameras can differ by several thousand dollars in installation cost depending on what is between them and the recorder.
Questions worth asking any contractor
Ask for the Texas license number, and verify it. Ask whether the quote includes the storage needed for your stated retention period or whether that is an add-on discovered later. Ask who services the system in year three, and whether that is the same company standing in front of you. Ask to see footage from a comparable installation at night, not a daytime demo. Those four questions eliminate most of the bad outcomes in this industry.
Why Houston businesses choose Texas Surveillance
We have been a family-operated Texas company since 1993 — 33 years, Texas license B04080401. Over that time we have designed, installed and maintained commercial and industrial surveillance systems for the Houston Rockets, NRG Stadium, the George R. Brown Convention Center, the Houston Police Department, several municipal governments and fire departments, and many hundreds of warehouses, plants, dealerships, restaurants and storefronts across the region.
Two things set a commercial install apart from what you can buy in a box. The first is specification: cameras chosen and positioned against your actual sightlines, lighting and risk, rather than a package applied uniformly to every building. The second is service. Security contractors in this market appear and vanish constantly, and a system with nobody behind it becomes a liability the moment it fails. A large share of our work is maintaining and expanding systems we installed years — in some cases decades — ago.
What every system includes
Commercial-grade, weather-sealed hardware specified for Gulf Coast heat, humidity and storm season. Secure remote viewing from phone, tablet or desktop. Storage sized to the retention your risk actually requires rather than the minimum the recorder ships with. Full handover training so your people can find and export footage without calling us. And a free on-site survey before any of it — because a quote produced without walking the property is a guess.

Privacy Policy — frequently asked questions
How much does a commercial security camera system cost?
Most Houston commercial installations run between $3,500 and $25,000 depending on camera count, resolution and analytics. A typical 8 to 16 camera system is roughly $6,000 to $14,000 installed. Every quote follows a free on-site survey.
How long does installation take?
Most commercial systems are installed in one to three days. Larger industrial or multi-building sites take longer. We work around your operating hours.
Can I view my cameras remotely?
Yes — every system includes secure remote viewing from phone, tablet or computer, with live view, playback and clip export.
How long is footage kept?
Standard retention is 30 days; we routinely configure 60, 90 days or a full year where insurance, compliance or legal requirements demand it.
Do you service what you install?
Yes. We have been family-operated in Houston for 33 years and a large share of our work is maintaining systems we installed years ago.
Are you licensed?
Yes — Texas license B04080401. Texas requires state licensing for security system installation; always ask for the number before hiring.
