Frequently Asked Questions
How much do security systems cost in Portland?
Basic security packages start around $1,500 for entry-level cameras and smart locks. Comprehensive systems typically range from $5,000 to $15,000 for full perimeter coverage with professional-grade cameras. Enterprise-level systems with access control and advanced analytics start at $20,000+.
What's the difference between wired and wireless security cameras?
Wired cameras provide reliable 24/7 recording with no battery concerns and support higher resolutions (4K/8K). Wireless cameras offer easier installation and flexibility but require battery changes or charging. For Portland homes, we typically recommend a hybrid approach: wired for critical areas and wireless for supplemental coverage.
Do I need professional monitoring?
Professional monitoring isn't required but provides peace of mind with 24/7 response to alarms. Self-monitoring through mobile apps works well for tech-savvy homeowners who can respond to alerts. Many Portland clients opt for hybrid solutions with professional monitoring during vacations and self-monitoring otherwise.
Can security cameras work in Portland's rainy weather?
Absolutely! We install IP66 and IP67 rated cameras designed for Pacific Northwest weather. These cameras withstand heavy rain, snow, and temperature extremes. Features like built-in heaters prevent lens fogging, and weatherproof housings ensure year-round reliability.
How long is security footage stored?
Storage duration depends on your system capacity and recording settings. Most systems store 30-60 days of continuous recording or 6-12 months of motion-triggered events. We offer local NVR storage, cloud solutions, or hybrid systems based on your needs and privacy preferences.
