Phoenix Security Camera Installation
Security Camera Installation Throughout Phoenix Valley
Wireless, solar-powered cameras and video doorbells with no monthly fees. Installed right, across the Valley.
Phoenix Security Camera and Video Doorbell Installers
ACME Locksmith is a Phoenix security camera installer for homes and businesses across the Valley. We are a licensed, veteran-owned company, in business since 1997, with four valley shops, more than 170,000 jobs completed, and we have been featured on ABC15, CBS5, and Let Joe Know. We install wireless, solar-powered surveillance cameras and wired or wireless video doorbells, with no monthly subscription required. You own your footage, stored locally and encrypted, with cloud backup only if you want it. From a single video doorbell to a full video surveillance system, we install across Phoenix, Mesa, Scottsdale, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, and the rest of the metro.
What We Install
Two ways to watch your door, and one big difference from the big brands.
Video doorbells
See and speak to anyone at your door from your phone, with motion alerts before they knock and a clear, non-fisheye picture. Wired if you have an existing doorbell, wireless if you do not.
Surveillance cameras
1080p or higher, day-and-night infrared, and custom motion zones so cars and pets do not trigger every alert. Cover entries, driveways, yards, and garages, all wireless and solar powered.
No monthly fees
Our systems do not require a subscription. Your video is stored locally and encrypted, with cloud as an option, never a requirement. Buy once, done paying.
How We Choose the Right Camera System for Your Home
There is no one best camera. The right system depends on your home, your light, and what you actually need to see. Here is what we weigh before we recommend anything.
Resolution and clarity
1080p or higher with night vision and infrared, so faces and plates are readable, not a blurry smear. We skip the doorbells with heavy fisheye distortion.
Wireless and solar
Arizona sun is free power. We install solar cameras so you never pull one down to charge it, sized to the light each spot gets.
Local storage, no fees
Encrypted storage on an SD card or a hub in your home, so a stolen camera does not mean stolen footage, and no subscription to view it.
Smart motion zones
AI zones so cars on the street and the neighbor’s cat do not blow up your phone. You get alerts that matter, for the areas you choose.
Phone and smart-home control
Live view, recorded clips, two-way talk, and tie-in with Alexa or Google Assistant, all from one app.
Right camera, right spot
Driveway, gate, garage, and back door. We place cameras where they cover your property, not just where they are easy to mount.
Wireless and Solar, Built for Arizona Sun
Wired camera systems are a thing of the past. We install wireless, solar-powered cameras so you never climb a ladder to charge them. Some have the panel built into the camera and need about two hours of sun a day. Others connect to a separate solar panel, so the camera can go anywhere while the panel faces the sun.
Phoenix sun is brutal on cheap gear. We install systems that hold up to the heat and size them to the light each spot gets, then set resolution, storage, and motion zones so the footage is actually useful when you need it.
Why Skip the Monthly Subscription?
Many camera brands charge a monthly fee just to view your stored video. Ring is a common example. Over time those fees cost far more than the device, and they put your recordings on someone else’s servers.
We install systems that store video locally, so you keep control and pay nothing every month. Cloud backup is available if you want it, but it is your choice, not a requirement. Your footage stays yours.
Buy the Wrong Camera and Here Is What It Costs You
Useless footage
Cheap, low-resolution cameras give blurry, fisheye video you cannot use for police or an insurance claim. The one time it matters, it fails you.
Stolen camera, stolen video
Many wireless cameras store video inside the camera. A thief takes the camera and takes your only copy. We keep storage safe inside the home.
Paywalled features
Brands lock cloud storage, alerts, and history behind a subscription. Stop paying and the camera goes half-dead.
Dead when it matters
Weak batteries and unstable Wi-Fi mean the camera is down exactly when you need it. Solar power and proper placement fix that.
Security Cameras for Phoenix Businesses
We install cameras and full surveillance systems for Phoenix-area businesses too: storefronts, offices, and rental properties. Same deal as homes, no forced monthly fees, local storage you control, and clear footage you can hand to police or your insurer.
We cover multiple entrances and parking lots, and set viewing permissions so the right people can check the feed. Pair it with access control to lock down who gets in and see who came through.

Max did a great job! I tried my best to install the new door knobs myself but was unable. He was able to fix my mess quickly and properly.

Willie was a 100% joy to work with. Made the steps of duplicating my medeco lock key a breeze. Called not once, but TWICE to let me know my key arrived earlier than expected.
