A camera system should deliver usable video when it matters. We plan the view, recording, retention, remote access, network capacity and user permissions together. We also test day and night performance so the finished system is dependable and understandable.
Every camera and access-control project is also a wiring project. Sentry can provide the structured cabling, fiber backbone, PoE switching, rack work and documentation that support the system.
All Camera Brands
We install and service all camera brands, including Ubiquiti
Sentry Audio Video is not locked to one camera manufacturer. We design, install, repair and take over mixed systems — including Ubiquiti UniFi Protect and other IP, PoE and NVR platforms already on the property.
That matters in South Florida because many homes, restaurants and offices already have cameras from a prior vendor. Replacing everything is not always the right job. The right job is usable coverage, reliable recording, a network that can carry the load, and a system someone will still service next year.
Typical camera work
- New IP camera systems for homes, estates, restaurants, offices and HOAs
- Add-on cameras on an existing NVR or UniFi Protect console
- Takeover of orphaned systems when the last installer disappeared
- Night, driveway, dock, gate and staff-area coverage
- Remote viewing with permissions that match the property
- PoE switching, rack cleanup and storage planning
Ubiquiti / UniFi Protect
We install and service Ubiquiti camera systems when that platform fits the property: UniFi Protect consoles, UniFi cameras, remote viewing, and integration with the site network. We also evaluate whether an existing UniFi installation is undersized, poorly placed, or sitting on a consumer network that cannot support it.
If the property is better served by a different recorder or camera line, we say so. Brand loyalty is not the design standard. Coverage, retention, serviceability and the network are.

Security Camera FAQ
Planning, upgrades and takeovers
How many security cameras does a Boca Raton property need?
The right camera count depends on entrances, driveways, gates, shared areas, blind spots and the level of detail required. A site survey lets us map useful views instead of adding cameras that duplicate the same coverage.
Can Sentry take over an existing camera or NVR system?
Yes. Sentry Audio Video can evaluate cameras, the recorder, cabling, passwords, remote access and network health on a system installed by another provider. We then explain what can stay, what should be repaired and what needs replacement.
Do I need a new NVR or can the existing recorder be upgraded?
An existing recorder may be reusable when it supports the required camera resolution, storage, software and remote access. If it is unreliable, unsupported or cannot meet retention needs, we can quote a replacement and migrate compatible cameras.
Can outdoor cameras handle South Florida weather?
Outdoor camera placement must account for heat, humidity, rain, salt air, glare and nighttime lighting. We select appropriate locations and installation methods, then test both daytime and nighttime views before the job is completed.
Do security cameras need network wiring and PoE?
Most professional IP camera systems use network cabling and Power over Ethernet. The cable path, PoE capacity, switches, rack and internet connection all affect reliability, so every camera project includes a review of the supporting network.
Can cameras work with access control and gates?
Yes. Cameras can be planned alongside doors, gates, intercoms and access control so an operator can see the event connected to an entry attempt. We can coordinate camera placement, credentials, network wiring and system permissions.
Do you only install one camera brand?
No. Sentry installs and services all major surveillance brands, including Ubiquiti. We also take over mixed systems and will keep working equipment when it still meets the job.
Can you take over a UniFi Protect system?
Yes. We can adopt an existing UniFi Protect installation, add cameras, correct network and PoE problems, or replace the system if Protect is no longer the right platform.
