Security and cameras in Naples
Many Naples homes sit empty for months at a time while owners are up north, which makes cameras, locks and alerts more useful here than in a home lived in year round. The same system that watches the house also catches storm damage early during hurricane season. We introduce vetted, licensed installers and stay with you until you're confident.
- Licensed Florida contractors only, checked on the state lookup
- Savant, Control4, Crestron and Lutron specialists
- Up north for the season? We start by phone or video
Licensed only
Every installer's state license, checked on the state's own lookup before any introduction.

We don't install or sell equipment, so there is no brand to push.
Never sold
Your details go only to the installers you choose to meet. Never to a list.
Free to you
Installers pay us only when a project goes ahead. You never pay us anything.
Cameras, locks and alerts across your property
A security and camera system covers the entries, drives and grounds of your property with cameras, sensors and smart locks, all viewable and controllable from one app. Footage can be recorded locally, to a recorder you own on-site, or backed up to the cloud for an added layer of protection. On a larger property, cameras are typically paired with a gate or entry intercom, so you can see and speak with a visitor before opening the gate.
Recording locally, to a network video recorder or NVR, keeps footage on hardware you own, typically holding 30 to 90 days of continuous video across all cameras. Many estate systems add a cloud-hybrid backup, an encrypted offsite copy of footage from key cameras, so recordings survive even if the NVR itself is damaged or stolen. Camera count and coverage scale with the size of the property, from a focused setup at the main entries to a comprehensive system with dozens of cameras and analytics across the grounds.
What it usually includes
- Outdoor and indoor cameras positioned to avoid blind spots
- A local recorder (NVR) you own, often paired with cloud backup
- Gate and entry intercom with video
- Smart locks and access control at doors and gates
- Motion, glass-break or perimeter sensors
- App access and alerts from anywhere
- Professional camera placement as part of the design
What it costs
For an estate-scale system, one luxury installer's guide ranges from a Focused system at $30,000 to $60,000, with 8 to 16 cameras, a recorder and a gate intercom, up to $150,000 or more for the largest properties with dozens of cameras and analytics. Fixr's data puts a basic wired four-camera system at $600 to $2,000 installed.

Watching a seasonal home
Owners in Pelican Bay, The Moorings and Bonita Springs who are away for months at a time want more than a doorbell camera. A full system covers entry points, the lanai and the dock if there is one, with footage you can check from anywhere, so the house is never really left unwatched while you are up north.
Storm alerts, not just intruders
Hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30 (NOAA National Hurricane Center), and a camera system that also reports power loss, water leaks and temperature swings catches storm damage while you can still act on it from wherever you are, rather than finding it weeks later when you finally fly back in to check.
Local recording that survives a storm
Ask for local recording, footage stored on a device in the house rather than only in the cloud, so you still have it if a storm takes down internet service. Many installers set up both together: local storage for reliability and a cloud copy for the cameras that matter most.
Check any installer's license yourself
In Florida, low-voltage and electrical work needs a state license from the Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Look for one of these on the installer's paperwork:
Common questions
Straight answers to what owners ask us most.
Can cameras help watch a Naples home while I'm away for the season?
Yes. A full system covers entry points and outdoor areas and lets you check footage and get alerts from anywhere, which is the main reason most seasonal Naples owners install one before heading up north for the summer.
Do security systems help during hurricane season?
Yes. Beyond cameras, most systems can alert you to power loss, water leaks and temperature changes while you're away, so you learn about storm damage right away instead of on arrival. See our hurricane season guide.
Should camera footage be stored locally or in the cloud?
Both, ideally. Local storage on a device in the house keeps footage available even if internet service goes down in a storm, and a cloud copy backs up the cameras that matter most in case the local unit is damaged.
Should camera footage be stored locally or in the cloud?
Local recording, to a network video recorder (NVR) you own on-site, typically holds 30 to 90 days of continuous footage and keeps you in control of your own data. Many estate systems also add encrypted cloud backup for key cameras, so footage survives even if the NVR is stolen or damaged. See our privacy and security guide for more on keeping control of your footage.
How many cameras does a large home need?
It depends on the size and layout of the property. One luxury installer's guide sorts estate systems into tiers, from a focused setup of 8 to 16 cameras covering the main entries and gate, up to 20 to 40 or more cameras with analytics for full grounds coverage on the largest properties.
