What you get
What's Included in a Commercial Security Camera Installation?
Every commercial security camera installation we do in Nashville includes a free on-site assessment, a camera placement plan, a dedicated Cat6 run to each camera, mounting, PoE switch and NVR setup, remote viewing, testing, and staff training. Labor, configuration, and testing are part of the per-camera price, not extras on the invoice.
Free on-site assessment
We walk your property, identify coverage needs at entrances, exits, registers, docks, and parking, and document mounting surfaces, cable paths, and lighting conditions.
Camera placement plan
Every camera position is mapped to eliminate blind spots, and you get a coverage diagram before installation begins.
Dedicated Cat6 cabling
One Cat6 run from each camera back to your network closet, labeled, documented, and qualification tested with Trend Networks equipment.
Mounting and aiming
Professional mounting at every location with precise angle adjustment for the field of view each position needs.
PoE switch and NVR setup
A managed PoE switch powers and connects every camera, and the NVR is configured with recording schedules, motion zones, retention, and alert rules.
Remote viewing
Mobile apps for iOS and Android plus desktop browser access, configured on every system we install.
Testing, documentation, and training
Every feed tested, recording verified, and remote access confirmed. You get a full documentation package, and we train your staff on viewing, playback, and alerts before handoff.
What we install
Enterprise Surveillance for Nashville Businesses
We walk your property first, map the blind spots at entrances, registers, docks, and parking, then install commercial cameras rated to record around the clock. Every system includes remote viewing, motion alerts, and storage sized to your retention needs.

Camera selection
Which Security Cameras Do Nashville Businesses Need?
Most Nashville businesses need a mix: 4MP cameras at entrances, registers, and loading docks, weather-rated outdoor cameras with extended IR in parking lots, and 4K or LPR cameras only where plate or forensic detail matters. We match each camera to its location during the free on-site survey, and we install Avigilon, Axis, and Hanwha Vision.
Entrances and exits
4MP cameras, our default recommendation and the best value for entrance coverage. High-risk exterior doors get IK10 impact-rated vandal domes.
Parking lots and garages
Weather-rated (IP66/IP67) outdoor bullet cameras with extended IR for night coverage, LPR cameras where you need plate capture, and PTZ cameras for large lots or perimeters.
Retail floors and registers
Compact, low-profile indoor domes across the sales floor and stockroom, with 4MP cameras over point-of-sale areas.
Warehouses and loading docks
High-ceiling mounts, extended cable runs, and weather-rated exterior cameras at the docks. 4K is reserved for wide-area coverage where forensic detail matters.
Offices
Low-profile indoor domes in lobbies, hallways, and shared spaces, 2MP for general hallway monitoring, and exterior cameras at entrances and parking areas.
UniFi Protect
When Is UniFi Protect the Right Camera System?
UniFi Protect is the right fit when a smaller commercial site wants its cameras on the same console as its network and door access. ICTAlly supplies, installs, and services UniFi Protect cameras and recorders across Nashville and Middle Tennessee, at the same $300 to $800 per camera installed as the other systems we put in.
Protect cameras record to a UniFi console on site, such as a UniFi NVR, Cloud Key, or Protect-capable gateway, with smart detections on supported cameras that flag people and vehicles, and there is no per-camera license fee. The recorder and storage are quoted as separate line items, sized to your camera count and how long you need to keep footage.
It is not the right answer for every building. If you need an enterprise video platform with deeper analytics, long retention across many cameras and sites, or a specific brand named in a federal or insurance specification, we install Avigilon, Axis, or Hanwha Vision instead, and we tell you which one your building needs.
Running Protect alongside UniFi Wi-Fi and UniFi Access? See our UniFi Protect installation service for the whole stack on one console.

Timeline
How Long Does a Commercial Camera Installation Take?
Most Nashville commercial camera installations are completed in 1-3 days, depending on the number of cameras, cable run complexity, and building access. A typical 8-camera restaurant installation takes one full day, while larger 16-32 camera deployments for warehouses or corporate campuses may take 3-5 days.
Can't close for the install? We schedule after-hours and overnight work, and on system upgrades we keep the existing cameras live until the new system is commissioned.
