Seven things move a project from its starting price: wiring, readers and strikes, camera choices, hardware tier, storage, riser access, and LPR. Here's each in one sentence.
Reusable riser and door wiring keeps you near the starting price, while degraded or missing runs add pull time and cost.
A basic fob reader on a door with a working strike is the $1,000 baseline; NFC/mobile readers and new electric strikes or maglocks add to it.
Higher-resolution cameras and hard-to-reach mounts — facades, parapets, garages — cost more than a standard camera on an easy interior mount.
UniFi's lineup runs from budget-friendly to flagship, and the tier you pick moves the per-device price.
How many days of footage you want to keep sets the NVR and hard-drive capacity you need to buy.
Open, accessible risers make cable runs fast; blocked or sealed risers mean more labor to get wire between floors.
License-plate recognition cameras at vehicle entrances are a specialized add-on priced on top of standard cameras.
Every project carries a $12,000 minimum, which keeps us able to design, install, and support the system properly.
Because UniFi software licensing costs $0 — forever. You buy the system once, you own it, and there is nothing to rent.
Legacy intercom and access vendors charge $80–$500 per month per building, sometimes more, depending on services. Over five years that's $4,800 to $30,000+ paid just for permission to keep using equipment already bolted to your building.
We think that model is backwards. Your one-time investment goes into hardware and clean installation work — not a subscription. When we hand off the system, it's yours: your dashboard, your recordings, your credentials, no meter running.
This isn't a sales theory — it's how we run our own portfolio. Zach runs UniFi across the 350 units he owns and manages, on the same zero-fee platform we install for clients. If a monthly fee made buildings run better, we'd be paying one.
A whole-building UniFi video intercom starts at $10,000 for buildings under 50 units, from $20,000 for 50–100 units, from $30,000 for 100–200 units, and from $40,000 for buildings with 200+ units. In-unit intercom viewers are from $1,000 per unit, depending on your existing wiring.
Fobbed door access starts at $1,000 per door for a bare-bones installation. The price rises with the condition of the existing wiring, the reader type you choose, and the door strike the door requires.
Security cameras start at $1,000 per camera installed. The main price factors are camera quality and spec, existing wiring, and mounting location. NVR and hard-drive storage for footage retention can add to the total.
Because everything we install runs on UniFi, and UniFi software licensing is $0 — forever. You own the hardware outright, so there is no recurring platform fee. Legacy intercom and access vendors charge $80–$500 per month per building, sometimes more, depending on services.
Within 48 hours after a free site walk. We walk the building, check the wiring, doors, and camera locations, and send you a written fixed price — no obligation. Our project minimum is $12,000.
