Cameras and Door Control on One Platform, Without the Monthly Bill

A lot of business security systems are three separate things: a camera vendor, a door access vendor and an alarm company, each with its own app, its own contract and its own monthly fee. When something goes wrong, each one points at the others.

AVTech Specialists installs business camera and access control systems across South Bend, Mishawaka, Granger, Elkhart and Southwest Michigan, built on Ubiquiti UniFi Protect and UniFi Access. Cameras, doors and the network they run on sit in one dashboard, your footage stays on your own hardware, and there's no per-camera subscription to keep paying.

We come from the networking side, which matters here. Every camera and every door reader is a network device, and a security system is only as reliable as the network under it.

What we install

Commercial camera systems

Dome, bullet, PTZ and multi-sensor cameras placed for coverage of entrances, parking, registers, loading docks, inventory and work areas. 4K where detail matters, wide-angle where coverage matters.

Local recording, remote viewing

Footage recorded on your own network video recorder, with weeks of retention, viewable from a phone or desktop anywhere. No cloud fee, no outside company holding your video.

Smart detection

Person, vehicle and license plate detection, with alerts that go to the right people instead of a motion ping every time a leaf moves.

Door access control

Card, fob, PIN and mobile credentials. Schedules by door and by person. Revoke a terminated employee's access from a phone in ten seconds instead of rekeying the building.

Intercom and visitor entry

Video intercom at the front door or gate so staff can see and talk to a visitor and unlock remotely.

Alarm and sensor integration

Door and window sensors, motion detection and integration with monitored alarm systems where the business requires it.

Multi-site management

Several locations on one dashboard with role-based access, so an owner sees everything and a store manager sees their store.

Outdoor and low-light coverage

Cameras rated for Indiana winters and Michigan lakefront weather, with infrared and low-light performance for lots and yards.

Why a designed system beats a kit from a big-box store

Placement that covers what matters

Camera count is the wrong question. We design for entrances, choke points, cash handling, inventory and blind spots, with lenses chosen for the distance.

No monthly fee per camera

Cloud camera subscriptions add up fast across a business. UniFi Protect records locally, and you own the footage.

Access control that your office manager can run

Add a new hire, change a schedule, unlock a door for a delivery, all from a phone. No call to the vendor.

Built on a real network

PoE switching sized for the cameras, segmented so the camera traffic never touches the point-of-sale system, with failover so the system stays up when the internet doesn't.

One company owns the whole system

Cabling, network, cameras, doors and the dashboard from one team. When something needs attention there's one number.

Business security questions, answered

Is there a monthly fee?

Not for the cameras or access control. Footage records to your own hardware. If you want a monitored alarm with a central station, that service carries its own fee and we'll integrate it.

Who can see the footage?

You decide. Role-based access means an owner, a manager and a front desk can each see only what they should.

How long is footage kept?

It depends on camera count, resolution and storage. Most businesses keep two to four weeks and we'll size the recorder for what you need.

Can we replace keys entirely?

Yes. Most clients move to fobs, cards or phone credentials and keep a few physical keys as backup.

Do you integrate with an alarm company?

Yes. We work alongside monitored alarm providers and integrate sensors and arming with the rest of the system.

Will this work with our existing network?

Usually with some additions, such as PoE switching and a camera VLAN. We'll tell you exactly what's needed after a site assessment.
