Commercial Security Camera Installation in San Rafael
Know what happened, find the right recording and check your property from wherever you work. Clear Telecommunications designs and installs UniFi Protect camera systems for San Rafael businesses, property managers and community associations.
Our Marin office is at 851 Irwin St, Suite 222, San Rafael, CA 94901. We coordinate camera coverage, cabling, local recording and user access around your property—not a standard camera package.
Coverage That Answers Your Business’s Questions
An overview of the parking area and a clear view of someone at a door are different jobs. We start with the events you need to review, then choose camera positions, lenses and recording settings for those views.
For downtown San Rafael storefronts and mixed-use buildings, we review entrances, deliveries, exterior mounting access and shared spaces with the owner or property manager. Larger commercial and community sites may also need garage, loading-area or building-to-building coverage.
- Entrances and reception areas: useful views of visitors, deliveries and activity at the door.
- Parking and service areas: sightlines, lighting and recording detail planned for the actual viewing distance.
- HOAs and managed properties: common-area coverage, viewing permissions and retention requirements agreed with management.
- Multi-building sites: network connections, recorder capacity and a practical plan for expansion.
Why UniFi Protect: Quality Video and a Better Everyday Experience
We recommend UniFi Protect for camera quality, system performance and an app people can use confidently. Live views, recorded-event review and clip exports help authorized staff answer questions without spending unnecessary time searching through video.
- Camera selection: resolution, lens and low-light capabilities matched to the view; 4K models where the additional detail is useful.
- Event identification: supported cameras can detect people and vehicles to make relevant recordings easier to find.
- Useful alerts: configure Alarm Manager around selected cameras, events and schedules.
- Remote app access: review live and recorded video from your phone or computer with appropriate user permissions.
- Local recording: storage planned around camera count, recording settings and retention needs.
Detection features depend on the camera, recording equipment and software selected. Lighting and positioning affect results. Remote viewing and mobile alerts require a working internet connection and correctly configured access and notifications.
Clean Installation, Clear Handoff and Room to Grow
We review existing cameras, wiring and network equipment before recommending what to keep or replace. The installation plan covers mounting, cable pathways, power, switching and recorder location, with access and working hours coordinated before work begins.
At handoff, we configure authorized users and walk you through live views, event review, alerts and clip exports. Camera, cabling and network decisions stay connected so later additions are easier to plan.
Marin Project Experience: Cameras Alongside Shared-Amenity Access
For a Marin County condominium community, Clear installed UniFi Access at shared amenities and added security cameras to the bike-storage area. The project brought access groups and centralized administration together with camera coverage at a specific shared space.
It shows how we approach the needs of a property manager or HOA, with camera views, entry management and the infrastructure considered together.

San Rafael Commercial security cameras FAQs
Do you install commercial cameras for San Rafael businesses and HOAs?
Yes. We plan and install camera systems for businesses, common areas and managed properties in San Rafael and throughout Marin County. We define the needed views, recording storage and user permissions before recommending equipment.
Can we use existing cameras or cabling?
We review the equipment, wiring, network and recording requirements during the site assessment. Reuse depends on compatibility and condition; we explain what can remain and what needs upgrading in the proposed scope.
What affects the installation quote?
Camera models and count, mounting access, cable routes, network equipment and recording storage affect the scope. We provide a detailed project quote after reviewing the property rather than advertising a one-size-fits-all package.
Is your San Rafael office a walk-in showroom?
No. Our Irwin St office supports local field service. Call or text to discuss your property and schedule an on-site visit.
