In some instances, the existence of the cameras should go unnoticed especially if knowledge of their presence may bring displeasure in the working environment. If you wish to install security cameras at an office in Chico, CA, here the most important locations you should consider.

Reception area

This is the point which many visitors to a firm must likely pass before proceeding to any section. Openly visible surveillance camera system may bring a lot of discomfort to visitors. Thereby, it is necessary to make the camera system meant for the reception to be unnoticeable.

Parking lots

Monitoring open locations in Chico, CA such as parking lots can be incredibly easy using EPZ cameras. Parking lots are considered delicate locations since their use inevitable most of the times and these are points often checked when there is a need to have some information about persons who may have entered or left a premise. Cameras that can enable readjustment of the field of view are highly preferred especially in awareness situations. Cameras meant for parking lots should also have number plates recognition feature and enable more premise security monitoring and access.

Break Rooms

These are often the first and the last locations visited by employees when coming and leaving for work. Break rooms are also commonly known as popular disagreement points in many workplace environments. The best camera systems for break rooms should be clock cameras since they are hardly noticeable meaning that they can work without upsetting the employees.

Supply rooms

It is true that many Chico, CA businesses do lose a significant amount of resources due to small and sometimes unnoticeable thefts masterminded by rogue employees. Having 360-degrees camera monitoring in supply rooms will ensure that a business takes note of persons who have access to the supply room and such data can be used to hold into accountability the persons who have access to the supply room.

Dumping areas

Dumpsters shouldn’t be overlooked when designing camera surveillance systems. Employees in Chico, CA who steal from their employers often prefer to hide stolen items in dumpsters since such locations are least likely to be questioned by management most of the times. Cameras meant for monitoring dumping areas should also have audio recording capability to capture any criminal dealing that may be planned by employees who prefer to engage in illegal acts at this region.

What Our Customers Say

"I had the Alibi system installed several years ago. It has functioned flawlessly. The image quality is exellent both night and day and in all weather conditions. I particularly like the replay (which can be set at various speeds) and zoom functions of the system. Tech support from Crimefreeliving has been excellent. I have received quick responses to questions, and timely home visits — as when I changed IP carriers and my Alibi system needed to be reset. I have recommended Crimefreeliving to several friends."

Rich

"As a small business owner here in Chico we definitely saw the need for video surveillance. After expressing our needs and concerns Tim did an excellent job getting us set up with the set up with the appropriate equipment. He really took the time to address our concerns in a very friendly, professional and knowledgeable manner. I highly recommend Tim for all of your business and residential video surveillance needs."

Ron H., Owner/Auto Doctor

"I have to say I love having my security cameras at my home. Tim Truby did a wonderful job of installing the five cameras. He is very neat and cleaned everything up after the installation. He explained to me how to operate the monitor, my phone and IPad. However, I have had to call Tim because I'm not tech savvy and forget what he has told me. He usually just helps me over the phone and then all is well. I'm 80 years old and enjoy the comfort of knowing I have these security cameras."

Gloria

"Tim Truby designed and installed a 32 camera system for us here at the Butte County Mosquito and Vector Control District. We had received several other quotes from security system vendors, but Tim’s quote was the least expensive. Tim also installed the system quickly and has always been available when we needed him. We are very happy with our security camera system and we can highly recommend Tim Truby for all of your surveillance system needs."

D. Weseman, Butte County Mosquito and Vector Control District

Crime Free Living updated our old video system with a new 16 Channel HD Alibi Video Security System. The old system had been added onto by different installers which resulted in a cabling mess. There were cables that worked and cables that went nowhere. It was a mess. Tim sorted it all out and installed cameras that are very clear. He also installed a monitor for our cashiers to watch hidden areas, a monitor to watch the entry door, and a monitor that allows employees to watch the outside parking and gas pump area. All work was done on time and very professional! Will always recommend Tim and Crime Free Living.

S. AM PM Chico Arco Station

"I had Tim install an Alibi Video Security System at my residence and a couple business locations. The remote view option is invaluable to absentee owners or anyone who travels a lot. The clarity and quality of the cameras have allowed for viewing employee theft. The evidence provided from the HD video cameras was fantastic! Tim was professional and provided extra value from his law enforcement background."

J. Folsom Arco Station

"Tim, I want to thank you again for doing such a fantastic job on installing a wireless IP security camera system at our dream home. The extra time that you took to hide wires, and install a clean, professional system is much appreciated. I still can’t believe the clarity, quality, and ease of use of this new system. I wished that I would have met you before our original inferior system was installed by another company. Now, whether I am at home, or monitoring the system from around the world, I know that my home and family are safe and sound."

John M.

"In April of 2017, my husband and I made a phone call to Crime Free Living that turned out to be a smart and wise decision. Amazingly, in just a few hours, Tim installed four Dome Security Cameras, weatherproof enclosures, and hooked up into our home a 23" Full HD Widescreen Security Monitor. Even more than his professional expertise was the time spent with us in making sure that this system was working correctly and properly installed on our phones so that anywhere in our travels we can monitor our new home in Magalia."

Tieka and Don S.

"I have been using Crime Free Living for the last couple years ar work and at home and I really recommend this product. Tim is a very good service provider. If he can't figure it out, he's got good tech support with the system that he offers."

Gary D.

"I have known Tim for over 10 years. To date, Time with Crime Free Living has installed two separate surveillance systems for my company. With each system, Tim has listened to my needs and custom dsigned surveillance systems for my specific needs and within my budget. The equipment used is always state of the art, the workmanship is top notch, and Tim is the example of trustworthy. I would recommend him for any job."
