What’s Included
A Complete Security Camera Installation — From Planning to Handoff
Every installation SetupTeam delivers in Toronto and across the GTA follows the same infrastructure-first standard. Coverage is planned before a single cable is run. Cabling is concealed and terminated cleanly. The NVR is configured, remote access is tested, and the system is handed over with documentation — not left for the client to figure out.
01
Coverage Zone Planning
Sightline assessment of every entry point, blind spot, and high-traffic zone before placement decisions are made. Camera positions are mapped against your property layout — no guesswork.
02
Cat6 Low-Voltage Cabling
Power over Ethernet runs concealed through walls, ceilings, and attic spaces where accessible. Cable entry points sealed and finished. No surface conduit unless structurally required.
03
Camera Mounting & Sightline Set
Each camera is mounted at the correct height and angle for maximum coverage. Bracket selection accounts for surface type — soffit, brick, drywall, or concrete — with a clean, finished result.
04
NVR Setup & Storage Configuration
Network Video Recorder installed, channels mapped, retention schedule configured. Storage is sized and set to your requirements — not left at factory defaults.
05
Remote Access & Mobile Setup
Remote viewing configured and tested on your devices before we leave. Motion alerts set. You leave with a working system — not a manual and a list of steps to complete yourself.
06
System Handoff & Documentation
Walk-through of every camera, zone, and setting before the technician leaves. System access credentials documented and handed over. No loose ends.
New Installation
Full System Design for Any GTA Property
Starting from scratch means doing it right. SetupTeam designs each new system around the specific layout of the property — not a generic camera count. Coverage zones are planned, cabling is routed cleanly, the NVR is placed and configured, and remote access is verified before handoff. Every new installation is delivered as a complete, documented project.

Upgrade & Expansion
Extend or Improve an Existing System
Many properties across the GTA have an existing system that is under-performing — cameras in the wrong positions, an NVR running out of capacity, or cabling that was never properly terminated. SetupTeam assesses what’s in place and improves it: adding cameras to existing NVR capacity, replacing outdated recorders, reconfiguring coverage zones, or improving cabling quality throughout.
Add Cameras
Expand coverage to previously unmonitored zones — side entrances, garage, rear yard, or additional interior areas — using existing NVR channel capacity where available.
Replace the Recorder
Outdated DVR or undersized NVR replaced with a properly sized, configured unit. Existing cameras re-terminated and verified. Storage retention reset to match actual needs.
Reconfigure Coverage Zones
Camera positions, angles, and motion alert zones reviewed and adjusted. Existing blind spots addressed without a full reinstall where infrastructure permits.
Improve Cabling Quality
Surface-run or poorly terminated cabling re-routed and properly finished. Resolves intermittent dropouts, signal issues, and cosmetic problems from prior installations.

How It Works
Plan, Wire, Install, Configure
Every SetupTeam security camera installation follows a consistent four-step sequence — from the first site assessment through to remote access verification and handoff. No shortcuts, no skipped steps.
01
Plan
On-site walkthrough to assess sightlines, entry points, and structural routing options. Coverage plan confirmed before any work begins.
02
Wire
Cat6 PoE cabling routed and concealed through walls, ceilings, or attic spaces. All runs terminated cleanly and tested before cameras are mounted.
03
Install
Cameras mounted at planned positions and angles. NVR installed and positioned. All hardware secured and finished to a clean standard.
04
Configure
NVR channels mapped, storage configured, motion detection set, and remote access verified on client devices. Full walk-through and documentation before departure.
Property Types
Every Toronto Property Type — Covered
The GTA spans a wide range of property types and installation environments. SetupTeam works across all of them — from condo suites to commercial corridors — with an approach tailored to the structural realities of each.
Residential
Condo & High-Rise
Concealed low-voltage runs through suite walls and ceilings without access to cavities. Camera placement coordinated around building management requirements. Clean finish throughout.
Residential
Semi-Detached & Detached
Exterior camera placement at eaves, soffits, and entry points with cabling routed through attic or wall cavity. Full perimeter coverage planned per property layout.
Commercial
Retail & Office
Commercial-grade camera placement covering entrances, parking, and interior zones. NVR sized for multi-camera retention requirements. Installations completed with minimal disruption to operations. See our commercial TV and AV installation services.
Mixed Use
Multi-Unit & Mixed-Use
Surveillance planning across shared and private zones. Camera placement accounts for tenant privacy requirements and common area coverage. NVR access managed per ownership structure.
Camera Types
The Right Camera for Every Position
Camera selection is driven by placement requirements, not personal preference. SetupTeam selects and installs the appropriate camera type for each position in the coverage plan — outdoor fixed, wide-angle, doorbell, or commercial-grade — based on sightline, environment, and retention requirements. Smart home and Control4 smart home integration available where required.
Fixed Outdoor Bullet & Dome
The standard for exterior perimeter coverage. Mounted at eaves, soffits, and entry points. Weatherproof, PoE-powered, and positioned for maximum deterrence and coverage angle.
Wide-Angle & Panoramic
Used where a single camera needs to cover a broad interior zone — lobby, open floor plan, or parking area. Reduces total camera count without sacrificing coverage quality.
Doorbell & Entry Cameras
Purpose-built for front door and entry coverage. Integrates with smart home systems where applicable. Wired PoE preferred over battery-dependent wireless for reliability.
Commercial-Grade PTZ & Multi-Sensor
For large commercial properties, parking structures, and multi-entrance buildings. Pan-tilt-zoom or multi-sensor units provide broad coverage with a single installation point.
