Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer camera repairs for systems not installed by Secure Alarms?
Yes. We frequently service and upgrade systems originally installed by other providers.
What’s the best way to store recorded footage?
We offer cloud and local storage options depending on your budget, bandwidth and security goals. We'll walk you through the pros and cons of each.
Can I view my camera feed on my phone or tablet?
Yes. Most systems we install support mobile access. We configure the app and train you on how to use it during the install.
Do you offer camera installation for small retail stores or single-building businesses?
Yes. We frequently install compact systems for boutiques, offices and standalone shops with 2–8 cameras.
How long is footage stored?
This depends on the storage type and hard drive size. Most systems offer 7–30 days of retention. We can adjust it based on your preferences.
Is a permit required to install cameras on a home or business?
In most cases, no permit is needed. If your system ties into public spaces or is part of a large commercial building, we’ll advise on local code compliance.
Can I start with just a couple of cameras and expand the system later?
Yes. Many of our clients begin with front-facing or driveway coverage and expand over time. We can design your system with future growth in mind so adding cameras later doesn’t mean redoing the entire setup.
Can I get alerts if someone walks onto my property?
Yes. We can set up motion-activated alerts sent to your phone or email when someone enters a specific zone like a front yard, driveway or side gate area.
What if my Wi-Fi is weak, can I still use wireless cameras?
Weak signal can cause issues with wireless cameras, but we’ll test signal strength during the site visit. In some cases, we recommend wired connections or adding a Wi-Fi extender to ensure reliable performance.
