CCTV for Elwood Bayside Homes, Units & Cafés

Elwood combines quiet, tree-lined streets, bayside walks and a busy café strip around Ormond Road. When we design CCTV here, we focus on how people actually move around the property — from beach car parking and laneways to side paths, garages and shared entries, not just the front gate.

Our CCTV Surveillance page shows how we plan coverage and recording time across Melbourne, including Elwood addresses close to the foreshore, the canal and the train line, where foot traffic and parked cars are a daily reality.

  • Front path, porch and driveway coverage for classic Elwood houses and renovated homes
  • Entry lobbies, stairwells and basement parking for Elwood apartment and unit buildings
  • Shopfront, till and rear-lane doors for cafés, salons and small local retailers
Bayside Homes & Courts

Cameras aimed at driveways, garages and side gates so you can see who is near cars, parcels and outdoor gear.

Apartments & Units

Shared doors, mail areas and bike-storage spaces recorded with clear images if something goes wrong.

Cafés & Local Traders

Customer areas, counters and stock rooms watched, plus visibility over laneway deliveries and after-hours access.

  • System tuning: default settings often left unchanged.
