Honest, Upfront, No Surprises

Pricing & Financing — Straight Answers Before You Ever Commit

Honest ballpark ranges, one flat on-site quote, no monthly fees, and financing for businesses — across Waterford Township and Metro Detroit.

Everybody wants to know the same thing first: what’s this going to cost me? Fair question — and most companies dodge it.

We won’t hand you a fake price list, because a number that doesn’t account for your property is just a guess. But we’ll be straight with you up front: here are the real ranges, here’s exactly how our pricing works, and here’s the one promise we make — the price we quote on-site is the price you pay.

Roland from Security Camera Guru reviewing a quote with a Metro Detroit customer — honest, upfront pricing with no surprises and financing available

Typical Ranges

What most people actually pay

Residential

$800 – $2,500

Most homes, depending on the number of cameras, property size, and complexity. A small home might need 4 cameras; a larger home with a detached garage, 8. You get a ballpark over the phone and a firm flat price after the property walk.

Commercial

Varies by facility

A small office with 6 cameras is very different from a warehouse with 20 across multiple buildings. We quote after understanding your facility — and business financing is available for qualified installations.

Every System Includes

  • No monthly fees — ever
  • Footage stored local — you own it
  • One honest flat quote
  • 3-yr equipment / 1-yr labor warranty
The one promise: we never quote a final price without seeing the property first — and once we do, that flat price is what you pay. No surprise add-ons, no “that part’s extra” at the end.

How Pricing Works

From “what’s it cost?” to a firm price — in four steps

1

A quick phone call

Tell us what you want to protect. We get a feel for your property and what matters most to you.

2

Free Google Maps ballpark

We pull your property up on satellite and give you a realistic ballpark price — no appointment, no waiting around.

3

On-site walk (if you’re in)

Like the number? We come out, walk the property, confirm every angle, and lock in one honest flat quote.

4

Installed right

Hardwired, tested, your phone set up, and a full walkthrough before we leave. The price we quoted is the price you pay.

Knowledge Base

Pricing questions, answered honestly

Q.Why don’t you list exact prices?

Because no two properties are the same. A ranch on a corner lot needs a different system than a two-story with a detached garage, and a restaurant is different from a warehouse. A real price comes from understanding your property — not a generic number that’s wrong the moment you read it. What we can promise: a ballpark over the phone, and one honest flat quote on-site before any work begins.

Q.What does a typical home system cost?

Most residential systems land between $800 and $2,500, depending on the number of cameras, your property size, and complexity. We’ll give you a ballpark over the phone and a firm flat price after the property walk.

Q.What about commercial pricing?

Commercial varies more — a small office with 6 cameras is very different from a warehouse with 20 across multiple buildings. We quote after understanding your facility, and business financing is available for qualified installations.

Q.Are there any monthly fees?

No — none, ever. Your system is yours outright. Footage is stored locally on your own recorder. No subscriptions, no cloud fees, no paying every month just to see your own video.

Q.Do you offer financing?

Yes — business financing is available for qualified commercial installations, so your facility gets protected immediately without a large upfront cost. Terms are discussed during your consultation.

Q.Is the quote really free?

Yes. The phone ballpark and the on-site property walk are free, with no obligation. You only pay if you decide to move forward.
