Orbit Security Group

Core work

Consulting and design

Networking and cameras are the everyday work. UniFi SuperLink sensors and Alarm Hub when intrusion belongs on Protect. Site links and remote WAN when coverage leaves the building. Door access and UniFi intercoms when the job includes openings — single door, gate call box, or Intercom Viewers in the office and classroom wing — each scoped on paper with part numbers you can order yourself.

By industry: retail, automotive, education, warehousing, small business, municipalities, gated sites. Vendors and product lines: platforms we specify.

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.

Most owners do better on Full Support once they see the gap: a design package alone does not install itself, and trades still need someone who owns the sequence.

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

2026 pricing by scope

ScopeBasic DesignFull Support

Straightforward scope

One site — a modest camera count, a few doors, and a package we can define in a short discovery call.

Typical: Daycares, small retail, offices, single-door storefronts.

$200 – $600$2,200 – $3,800

Larger scope

More buildings, more openings, or a spread-out site — where camera counts climb and trades need someone owning the sequence through install and commissioning.

Typical: Warehouses, schools, dealerships, multi-building campuses.

$900 – $1,600$4,000 – $6,500

Ranges reflect design complexity — not hardware cost. We quote a fixed engagement fee after scope is defined. Licensed daycares in Delaware and South Jersey can start with a free security consultation.

Full Support path

What happens between conversation and commissioning

  1. 01

    Conversation & scope

    Site photos, drawings if you have them, and a plain talk about what has to work on day one.

  2. 02

    Design & part list

    Network risers, camera schedules, site links, intercom and door hardware — scoped on paper with orderable SKUs.

  3. 03

    Quoting & purchasing

    Help interpreting supplier quotes, what to order first, and what can wait until rough-in is done.

  4. 04

    Site prep & trades

    Checklists for power, conduit, rack space, and coordination with whoever is on site.

  5. 05

    Install & commissioning

    We stay in the loop through install and commissioning — answering questions against the package until it works.

Value by industry

Why the investment pays back

  • Retail & mobile venues

    Theft reduction, POS coverage, liability defense, insurance leverage, traffic insights from Protect analytics.

  • Automotive — dealerships & shops

    Lot and perimeter alerts before the building, inventory and converter deterrence, bay cameras, overnight intercom drop-off instead of a wall lockbox.

  • Daycares & private schools

    Parent trust, liability protection, pickup and entry control, fewer after-hours issues, faster incident review.

  • Warehousing & logistics

    Inventory and cargo theft reduction, dock visibility, process error reduction, safety compliance.

  • Small business & offices

    Elimination of rekeying costs, after-hours protection, simple high-ROI installs.

  • Municipalities & parks

    Vandalism reduction, better evidence, multi-site monitoring efficiency.

  • Gated & remote infrastructure

    Copper and equipment theft deterrence, video-verified response, coverage where no building or power exists.

UniFi Protect analytics — person and vehicle detection, LPR, smart search, and line crossing — run on your hardware without per-camera license rent. That improves long-term ROI versus cloud-analytics platforms. Industry ROI detail →
