Consulting and design for networks, cameras, and site security.

Switching and VLANs sized for cameras and doors

Meraki, UniFi, or Cisco Small Business in the building — PoE budgets, IDF layout, and VLAN separation so Protect and UniFi Access do not fight guest Wi-Fi for ports.

Meraki, UniFi, or Cisco Small Business — PoE for cameras, intercoms, and door hubs on one VLAN plan

How a project runs

Same path whether it is a shop network, a lot full of cameras, or a wireless hop to a gate — scope on paper before anyone orders hardware.

  1. 01

    Site & scope

    Address, drawings if you have them, and what actually has to work on day one.

  2. 02

    Design & part list

    Network, cameras, wireless hops, sensors, and doors — scoped on paper with orderable SKUs.

  3. 03

    Full Support to the finish line

    Quoting help, trade coordination, and availability through commissioning — or Basic Design if you only need the package.

Design work we take on

Networking and cameras are the everyday work — boardwalk shops and strip malls included. Site links and remote WAN when the property needs them. UniFi SuperLink sensors and Alarm Hub when intrusion is in scope. Door access and UniFi intercoms when the job includes openings — each line scoped on paper before hardware is ordered.

Networking

Networking & site links

In-building switching and routing, plus Cambium site links when coverage leaves the building — point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and remote WAN when there is no building to extend from.

Full scope →
  • In-building — Meraki, UniFi, or Cisco Small Business switching, VLANs, and PoE
  • Point-to-point — building to lot, gate, outbuilding, or far parking
  • Point-to-multipoint — one cnWave hub serving several far drops
  • Remote head-end — Peplink cellular, or Starlink into Cambium NSE on cnMaestro X

Camera systems

Camera system design

Coverage first — then Protect analytics: LPR, facial recognition, line crossing, audio, and NeXT AI search on local hardware.

Full scope →
  • LPR, face recognition, line cross, and zones — assigned per camera on the drawing
  • AI Port / AI Key when the site mixes G4, G5, G3, or ONVIF streams
  • Recorder, storage, Alarm Manager rules, and network path — including lot hops

Sensors & alarms

UniFi sensors & alarms

Protect SuperLink sensors and Alarm Hub Kit — door/window contacts, motion, glass break, environmental, sirens, and AI speakers with orderable Ubiquiti SKUs.

Full scope →
  • SuperLink Gateway + USL-Entry, motion, glass break, and environmental sensors
  • Alarm Hub Kit for 32-zone hardwire contacts when copper is the right path
  • PoE / SuperLink sirens and AI speakers on Protect Alarm Manager

Door access

Door access & intercom design

UniFi Access by default — G3 Intercom or Reader Pro, Intercom Viewer, Door Hub, Gate Hub, and Elevator for a single door, gate, elevator floors, or small multi-door site. Self-procure alternatives when they fit.

Full scope →
  • G3 Intercom or Reader Pro at door or gate — Intercom Viewer in office or classroom wing
  • Door Hub, Gate Hub, Elevator kit, readers, and lock sets when the scope includes badges or floor access
  • Self-procure alternatives (PDK, Napco MVP, Suprema, Axis, and Paxton) when UniFi is not the fit

Industries

Industries we design for

Retail and mobile venues, automotive dealerships and shops, education, warehousing, municipalities, and gated sites. Ballpark hardware on the retail page; lot and perimeter design on automotive.

All industries →

Retail

Retail & mobile venues

Boardwalk shops, strip malls, arcades, indoor play centers, food trucks, pop-up carnivals, and event trailers — network, cameras, and mobile WAN kits with ballpark hardware ranges.

Automotive

Automotive — dealerships & shops

New and used car dealerships, independent lots, and mechanic shops — lot and perimeter cameras that alert at the fence line, plus overnight intercom drop-offs instead of a lockbox bolted to the wall.

Education

Private schools & daycares

Private schools, preschool, and licensed daycare. Intercom at pickup, door access records, and Protect cameras for vestibules, secured entries, and staff operations.

Warehousing

Warehousing & logistics

Loading docks, yard lots, fence lines, and gate access — point-to-point into the far corner, cameras where inventory moves, and UniFi access at the gate.

Small business

Small business

Boardwalk shops, strip malls, professional offices, light industrial, and owner-operated sites — real design, not a shopping-cart camera kit.

Municipal

Municipalities

Town facilities, maintenance buildings and lots, bus yards, parks, water treatment and pump sites, landfills, and public-works yards — Cambium point-to-multipoint where fiber never reached, plus intercoms and remote gate release on the same path.

Gated sites

Gated infrastructure sites

Utilities, substations, water and pump sites, telecom huts, and remote compounds behind a gate — power is there; backhaul often is not.

Retail & mobile

Retail & mobile venues

Boardwalk shops, arcades, play centers, food trailers, and pop-up carnivals — fixed retail, cellular event enclosures with guest Wi‑Fi, and Protect cameras with ballpark ranges on the retail page.

How we engage

Basic Design or Full Support

Every job starts with scoped design work and an orderable part list. The difference is what happens after the drawings leave our desk — and whether we stay with you until the system works as designed.

Buy the list. Install your way. Full Support adds active coordination, quoting help, and project oversight through commissioning — not a different hardware stack.

Design only

Basic Design

Drawings and part list — then you run with it

Low-cost, fast deliverable. You receive scoped design drawings and an orderable manufacturer part list. No ongoing coordination or support after delivery.

What you receive

  • Discovery conversation and site/scope definition
  • Network, camera, site-link, sensors & alarms, and door drawings as scoped
  • Orderable bill of materials with model numbers and quantities
  • One design review walkthrough before handoff

After handoff

  • No quoting or supplier pricing guidance after handoff
  • No purchasing recommendations or order sequencing
  • No coordination with electrician, installer, IT, or facilities
  • No project management through install or commissioning

Recommended path

Full Support

Complete handholding to the finish line

The complete experience — not just a design document. We stay available from first conversation through commissioning until the system works according to the original design.

What you receive

  • Everything in Basic Design
  • Guidance on quoting and pricing with suppliers
  • Purchasing recommendations and order sequencing
  • Site preparation checklist and guidance
  • Coordination with your electrician, installer, IT, facilities, or other trades
  • Project management support through installation and commissioning
  • Availability until the system is working per the design

Engagement fees

Dollar ranges live on the Design & consulting page — after the scope bands, so the numbers have context. Licensed daycares in Delaware and South Jersey can still start with a free security consultation.

Install help

Buy the list. Install your way.

The design includes orderable part numbers — not dealer-only SKUs. Install yourself, use your electrician, or ask us to introduce a local integrator. Full Support keeps us in the loop through commissioning; Basic Design is the package only.

How install assistance works

Featured insight

Meraki, UniFi, or Cisco SB — choosing the LAN under camera and door loads

The industry argues about segmentation slides. The failure on site is a brown-out PoE port on a switch nobody sized for infrared winter load.
