Video Surveillance & CCTV
in Santa Monica, CA

Commercial Video Surveillance & CCTV for Santa Monica properties

We design video surveillance that produces evidence, not just footage. Every project starts with a coverage plan tied to your actual risk — entrances, receiving docks, tills, parking, perimeter — not a camera count.

We install and maintain Axis, Hanwha, Avigilon, Milestone, Genetec, and Ubiquiti UniFi Protect. Cloud-first or on-prem NVR, with retention and bandwidth engineered for your site.

Santa Monica commercial video surveillance & cctv — local context

Fireside Security serves Santa Monica 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. Silicon Beach office, coastal hospitality, and dense multifamily make Santa Monica projects tight, high-stakes, and demanding on aesthetics.

Santa Monica 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. Concealed device layouts, flush ceilings, and clean cable management are non-negotiable here — we design to that standard from the start.

Every Santa Monica 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.
