Commercial Security Camera Systems in Northern Indiana
Enterprise-grade IP camera systems for warehouses, manufacturers, offices, retail, and medical facilities. 4K resolution, AI analytics, 30-day storage, and remote monitoring from anywhere.
Commercial Surveillance Built for How Your Business Actually Works
Commercial surveillance is more than cameras on the ceiling. It's about coverage architecture — knowing which angles capture the information you'd actually need in an incident, what resolution is required for facial and plate recognition, how much storage you need for insurance and compliance, and how your staff will access footage when something happens.
NexGen installs commercial camera systems for manufacturers, warehouses, distribution centers, medical offices, retail stores, restaurants, and multi-building campuses throughout Northern Indiana. We design every system around your specific facility — not a generic template.
All commercial systems include remote viewing from any device, motion-triggered alerts, and the option to add AI analytics for license plate recognition, object detection, or crowd density monitoring.

Commercial Surveillance FAQ
Coverage requirements vary by building layout, entry points, and risk profile. A typical small business (2,000–5,000 sq ft) needs 8–16 cameras to cover all entry/exit points, parking, cash handling areas, and key interior zones. A warehouse or manufacturing facility may need 16–64+ cameras. We conduct a free site survey and provide a specific recommendation.
An 8-camera commercial system typically runs $3,500–$7,000 installed. A 16-camera system with 4K cameras, a commercial NVR, and 30-day storage runs $7,000–$15,000. Large facilities with 32+ cameras, outdoor PTZ units, and AI analytics run $15,000–$50,000+. We provide detailed proposals before any work begins.
In many cases, yes — especially if your existing system uses ONVIF-compatible IP cameras or a current-generation NVR. If your system is analog CCTV, we can often install a hybrid DVR that accepts both analog and IP cameras, allowing a phased upgrade. We'll assess your current system during the free consultation.
Most commercial clients store 30–90 days of continuous footage. Storage duration depends on camera count, resolution (4K requires more storage than 1080p), frame rate, and NVR capacity. We size storage to your specific retention requirement — typically starting at 16TB for a 16-camera 4K system with 30-day retention.
Yes. For large parking lots, loading docks, and perimeter coverage, we install PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras and multi-sensor 180°/360° cameras that can replace 3–6 fixed cameras with a single unit. We'll recommend the right mix of fixed and PTZ coverage for your specific facility.
