What we install

What a properly installed system looks like.

Where each part of the system gets installed on your house.

Blue Ethernet cables stapled along an attic rafter

The cable run

We staple the cable along the attic framing and leave spare cable coiled at each camera.

The camera at the eave

We mount the camera flush to the soffit and level, one cable into the base, and set it lower at the doors so it catches a face.

What the estimate is for

Pricing Starting at $39.99 a month.

Here is what moves the estimate up or down.

How many cameras

Every camera is a cable run, a sealed hole, a mount, and a detection zone. Four covers most houses, and we settle the count with you on the walkthrough.

Attic, crawlspace, or neither

An attic or a crawlspace makes the run quick. A slab house with no attic takes longer.

Brick, siding, or stone

Each takes a different hole and a different seal.

Distance to the recorder

A long run costs cable and time. The closet is chosen with you.

A wired doorbell

Goes in where doorbell power is already at the door.

Second story and steep pitches

A second story or a steep pitch takes a taller ladder and more time on the wall.

The walkthrough is free, and the estimate comes from it.

Where a Raleigh incident gets reported, and who sees your footage afterward

The Raleigh Police Department's official reporting page links an online crime-reporting system for specific incident types, including property damage, theft from a vehicle, vehicle damage, lost property, stolen property, harassing calls, and hit-and-run damage. Eligibility rules apply to each category, and not every incident qualifies for the online form.

Connect Raleigh is a resident camera-registration program the city runs. Registering a home security camera at Level 1 tells investigators the camera exists; if footage could help a case, an investigator contacts the registered owner directly. No live feed is shared, and registering is not the same as filing an incident report.

Who signs off on the permit inside Raleigh city limits

Raleigh issues and inspects its own residential permits instead of routing them through Wake County. The City of Raleigh Planning and Development department is responsible for residential and nonresidential permitting and inspections across the city. A homeowner running new wiring for an exterior camera pulls that permit from the city department, not the county.

How old Raleigh's housing stock is, and what that means for a cable run

A secondary estimate puts the median built year for Raleigh's occupied homes at 1997; citywide, 45.1 percent of all housing units were completed in 2000 or afterward. That leaves a majority of Raleigh's houses built before the current century.

A house from the late 1990s puts an attic above a two-story frame that spans the entire roofline, giving a camera mounted near the roof edge a clear path down through that attic to an interior wall and on to a panel, rather than a run cut into a slab. A house built after 2000 is somewhat more likely to already have some low-voltage wiring in place from construction, shortening that same run.

What Raleigh's lighting ordinance requires of exterior fixtures

Raleigh's Unified Development Ordinance addresses exterior lighting in two provisions. UDO §7.4.6 requires floodlights to be aimed downward or shielded. UDO §7.4.10 requires building and security lighting to focus on the property's own site features, kept away from adjoining lots and the street, and requires full-cutoff wall pack fixtures.

5401 North: a growth cluster inside Raleigh

5401 North is a developer-described Raleigh community that combines single-family homes and apartments. It represents part of the newer construction added to Raleigh's housing stock from 2000 onward, alongside the city's existing neighborhoods.

Raleigh questions

Is there a camera registry in Raleigh?

Yes. Connect Raleigh lets a resident register a home security camera. Level 1 registration tells investigators the camera exists, and an investigator contacts the owner directly if footage could help an active case. No live feed is shared automatically.

Who inspects a residential permit inside Raleigh?

The City of Raleigh Planning and Development department, not Wake County. It handles residential and nonresidential permitting and inspections across the city.

Does Raleigh limit exterior security lighting?

Yes. UDO §7.4.6 requires floodlights to be aimed downward or shielded, and UDO §7.4.10 requires building and security lighting to stay focused on the property and off adjoining lots and the street.

How old is the median Raleigh house?

A secondary estimate puts the median built year for occupied Raleigh homes at 1997; fewer than half of Raleigh's housing units were built after 1999.
