What Glendale owners should know about video surveillance
Crews serving Glendale run out of our Santa Fe Springs operations base. Across San Fernando Valley, and Glendale specifically, video surveillance projects open with an incident with no usable footage, a claim or insurance request, cameras that were never commissioned properly, or a recorder that has failed.
The Glendale market we work in is mostly office and multi-tenant buildings, plus hospitality and retail, so video surveillance planning centers on lobby, garage, and shared-amenity coverage with tenant-appropriate access to footage; point-of-sale, entry, and back-of-house coverage for claims and shrink review. The scope does not change with the trigger: coverage design against the areas you actually need to review, camera and lens selection, recorder and retention sizing, network and cabling, and documented remote access.
Glendale sits under Glendale Fire Department for review, testing, and alarm response. Coverage spans Glendale and the rest of Los Angeles County, with regular work in Downtown, Adams Hill and Verdugo.
Working in Glendale
Fireside Security serves Glendale from our Santa Fe Springs office, delivering engineered commercial fire alarm, UL-Listed monitoring, access control, and video surveillance under a single C-10 license. Glendale's Class-A office towers, entertainment tenants, and dense multifamily produce continuous demand for engineered voice evac and monitored access.
Glendale Fire Department sets the local plan-review and inspection cadence, and our project managers work with it directly — stamped submittals, coordinated shop drawings, and acceptance tests that pass on the first walk. Voice evac tuning in high-rise assembly spaces is a specialty — we deliver clean STI/PA measurements on turnover.
Every Glendale project is monitored from our UL-Listed central station with LTE-M cellular paths, so your life-safety signaling doesn't depend on the copper POTS lines being retired in 2026.

- Consolidating separate recorders at several sites into one review platform

Glendale FAQ
Will cameras work at night at our Glendale site?
Low-light performance depends on the camera, the lens, and the site lighting. We assess actual lighting at the Glendale property and select cameras against it instead of relying on marketing specifications.
Who can view the footage?
Access is role-based: managers see the views they need, and export is limited to the people you designate. That matters when footage is requested for a claim or an incident in Los Angeles County.
How much camera retention does a Glendale business need?
Retention should match how long it typically takes you to learn about an incident and request footage. We size storage to that review window and the camera count rather than to a default number of days.
Can you work with the cameras we already have?
Frequently yes. We survey the existing Glendale system, identify which cameras and cabling are worth keeping, and replace only what isn't delivering usable images.
Is your Glendale fire alarm monitoring UL-Listed?
Yes. Alarm signals from Glendale properties are supervised 24/7 by a UL-Listed central station (UL UUFX S36457), with alarm handling and dispatch to the responding Los Angeles County agency.
How fast can you get to a Glendale property for a site walk?
We typically schedule a same-week site walk in Glendale from our Santa Fe Springs office and follow it with a priced, permit-ready proposal. Office and estimating hours are Monday–Friday 07:00–18:00 and Saturday 08:00–14:00; call (888) 810-2336 to book.
