Commercial clients across Michigan, Ohio & Indiana trust Michigan Security Systems — here's a snapshot of their feedback.

Michigan Security Systems installs commercial-grade equipment from the industry’s most trusted manufacturers — selected for reliability, cybersecurity, and long-term support, not one-size-fits-all packages.
Government-ready equipment. The systems we install meet NDAA Section 889, TAA, and FCC requirements — so your project stays eligible for government property and federally funded work, with no surprises down the road.
Projects on government property or with government funding are subject to U.S. rules and regulations. Not every security system can be installed on the job, so it's essential to meet the requirements put forth.
Section 889 of the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act prohibits the U.S. government from procuring video & telecommunication equipment from certain Chinese companies and their subsidiaries.
The Trade Agreements Act requires the U.S. government and affiliated entities to purchase end products that are U.S.-made or made in countries recognized as supporting fair and open international trade.
Knowing which systems are allowed is key to a successful project — we handle that for you up front, so there are no unexpected surprises down the road.

Professional-grade IP surveillance cameras, 4K video systems, and cloud-managed video platforms for facilities across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana.
Michigan Security Systems installs and services commercial security camera systems across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana.

Onsite playback and cloud backup for video retention
A commercial security camera system is only as good as its design and installation. Poorly placed cameras, the wrong lens for the distance, inadequate lighting compensation, or undersized storage can leave critical blind spots exactly where you need coverage most. As a full-service commercial integrator, Michigan Security Systems engineers each surveillance system around your specific facility — entrances, loading docks, parking areas, registers, server rooms, and perimeter — so every dollar of your investment is working.
We install and service the leading commercial camera platforms, including Avigilon, Axis, Digital Watchdog, Verkada, Hanwha, and more. Whether you need a handful of cameras for a single storefront or a multi-site enterprise deployment with centralized video management, our team specifies the right resolution, field of view, and analytics for each location. Modern IP systems give you far more than recorded footage — AI-driven analytics can flag loitering, detect line-crossing, count people, read license plates, and send real-time alerts to your phone before an incident becomes a loss.
Because we use our own W-2 technicians and never subcontract, the same team that designs your system installs and supports it. That continuity matters for warranty, for compliance documentation, and for the kind of clean, professional cable management and mounting that reflects well on your facility.
A licensed MSS technician walks your facility, identifies coverage gaps and risk points, and reviews your goals — no subcontractors, no guesswork.
We engineer a system around your building, budget, and compliance needs, specifying the right equipment for each zone rather than a one-size package.
Our own certified technicians handle the full installation — cabling, mounting, configuration, and testing — to code and to manufacturer spec.
We train your team on the system and provide ongoing service, monitoring, and maintenance so it keeps performing for years.
It depends on your facility size, layout, and the areas you need to protect — entrances, exits, points of sale, storage, and perimeter are typical priorities. Rather than guess, we provide a free on-site assessment and design a camera count and placement plan tailored to your building and budget.
Yes. Every modern system we install supports secure remote viewing from a smartphone, tablet, or computer, so you can check any camera at any location from anywhere. Multi-site businesses can monitor all locations from a single app.
Retention depends on your storage capacity, camera resolution, and recording settings. We size your storage to meet your operational and compliance needs — commonly 30, 60, or 90 days — and can configure cloud backup for off-site redundancy.
In many cases, yes. We can evaluate an existing system, identify what's salvageable, and recommend upgrades or replacement where it makes sense. Reach out and we'll take a look.
Michigan Security Systems completed a professional outdoor PTZ dome camera installation at a Michigan State Police post in Wayne County — one example of the government, law enforcement, and high-security commercial projects we handle across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. The same enterprise-grade expertise goes into every project, regardless of size.
We install the same high-performance PTZ systems for commercial, industrial, and institutional properties throughout Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana.

We install keycard, fob, mobile-credential, and cloud-based access control (including PDK) — from single-door setups to enterprise, multi-site credential management with full audit trails.
Commercial access control systems for doors, gates, and secure areas — from single-door solutions to enterprise-wide credential management across multiple Michigan locations.
We install card readers, key fobs, mobile credentials, PIN pads, biometric scanners, and vehicle gate control systems for Michigan manufacturing plants, schools, government buildings, and cannabis facilities.
Proximity Card & Key Fob Access — HID, ASSA ABLOY, and industry-standard credential systems.
Biometric Access Control — Fingerprint, hand geometry, and facial recognition for high-security areas.

Vehicle Gate Control Systems — Swing, slide, and barrier gate operators with LPR or intercoms.
Cloud-Based Access Management — Manage credentials remotely across multiple sites.
Audit Trails & Compliance Reporting — Full access logs for government, METRC, and insurance compliance.
Keys get copied, lost, and never returned. A commercial access control system replaces that liability with credentials you can issue, schedule, and revoke instantly — and a complete audit trail of who went where and when. For any business managing employees, contractors, deliveries, and after-hours access, electronic access control is one of the highest-impact security upgrades available.
Michigan Security Systems designs and installs access control systems built around how your facility actually operates. That includes card and fob readers, mobile credentials, keypad and PIN entry, biometric readers, video intercoms at entry points, and automated locking schedules for doors, gates, elevators, and secured rooms. We work with trusted platforms including PDK / ProdataKey, Brivo, HID, DMP, Honeywell, and CDVI, and we integrate access control with your cameras and alarm system so a single event — a forced door, a credential used after hours — can trigger recording and notification automatically.
Cloud-managed platforms let you add or disable a credential, lock down the building, or pull an access report from your phone. For multi-site organizations, that means managing every door across every location from one dashboard. Our licensed technicians handle the full install — door hardware, wiring, controllers, and software — and train your team to run it confidently.

Credentials can be issued and revoked instantly without re-keying locks, access can be scheduled by person and by door, and every entry is logged. If an employee leaves or a card is lost, you disable it in seconds — no locksmith required.
Yes. We specialize in integrated systems. Access events can automatically trigger camera recording and alarm notifications, giving you a unified view of security across your facility.
Yes. Many of the platforms we install support smartphone-based credentials, so employees can use their phone instead of a physical card or fob — convenient and harder to lose or share.
Absolutely. Cloud-based access control lets you manage users, schedules, and reporting for every door across every site from a single dashboard or mobile app.
Michigan Security Systems completed a PDK RFID card reader access control installation at a daycare facility in Michigan — protecting children, staff, and restricted areas with cloud-managed door access that administrators control from any device. The same enterprise-grade access control expertise is available to every business we serve across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana, regardless of size or industry.
We install PDK and other cloud-managed access control systems for offices, warehouses, medical facilities, daycares, schools, and commercial properties throughout Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana.
Get a Free Quote →Professional intrusion detection, monitored alarm systems, and integrated security platforms for businesses across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana.
Michigan Security Systems installs and monitors commercial alarm and intrusion detection systems across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. We install monitored burglar alarms, door and motion sensors, and integrated platforms (including Resideo panels with Alarm.com) that connect to your cameras and access control for unified, 24/7 protection.
Commercial-grade alarm and intrusion detection systems across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana — from small retail stores to large manufacturing facilities and multi-building campuses.
Commercial Intrusion Detection — Door/window sensors, motion detectors, glass break, vibration.
24/7 UL-Listed Alarm Monitoring — Professional central station with rapid emergency dispatch.
Multi-Zone Alarm Systems — Independently arm/disarm zones for different areas and schedules.
Duress & Panic Alarms — Silent panic buttons and holdup alarms for cannabis dispensaries and high-risk sites.
Integrated Alarm & Camera Systems — Unified security response with automatic camera recording.
Mobile App Management — Arm, disarm, and monitor from anywhere with real-time alerts.
A commercial intrusion alarm does more than make noise — it detects, verifies, and reports a break-in fast enough to limit loss and get the right response on the way. Michigan Security Systems designs monitored alarm systems for commercial facilities of every size, combining door and window contacts, motion detection, glass-break sensors, and environmental monitoring into a single, professionally installed system.
We install and service reliable commercial platforms including DMP, Resideo / Honeywell, and Interlogix, and we pair intrusion detection with professional monitoring so a verified alarm reaches a central station and your team around the clock. Integration with your access control and camera systems means an after-hours alarm can pull up live video and confirm whether it's a real threat or a false trip — reducing costly false-alarm dispatches.
Beyond burglary, we can add environmental sensors for water, temperature, and smoke so you're alerted to the kinds of problems that quietly destroy inventory and equipment overnight. As with every system we install, the work is done by our own licensed technicians and backed by ongoing service and support.

We offer professionally monitored alarm service so a verified alarm is received and acted on 24/7. We'll walk you through the monitoring options that fit your facility and budget.
Yes. We design integrated systems so an alarm event can trigger camera recording and let you or the monitoring center verify the alarm with live or recorded video before dispatch.
Yes. Proper sensor placement, system design, and video verification dramatically cut false alarms — saving you fines and unnecessary dispatches. This is a core benefit of professional design versus DIY kits.
We can add sensors for water leaks, temperature extremes, and smoke, so your system protects against more than just intrusion — important for facilities with inventory, refrigeration, or sensitive equipment.
TV video walls, projector systems, PA systems, intercoms, VoIP phone systems, and complete AV integration for Michigan businesses.
Michigan Security Systems designs and installs commercial audio and video systems across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. We integrate video walls, digital signage, conference-room AV, PA and intercom systems, and VoIP phone systems for offices, lobbies, schools, and industrial facilities.
Professional AV integration across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana — from boardroom display systems and video walls to building-wide PA systems, intercoms, and VoIP phone systems.
TV Video Walls — Multi-display systems for lobbies, command centers, control rooms.
Projector Systems — Commercial projectors for conference rooms, training centers, auditoriums.
Public Address (PA) Systems — Building-wide PA with emergency alert integration.
IP Intercom Systems — Commercial IP intercoms for building entry and multi-tenant applications.
VoIP Phone Systems — Business VoIP and cloud phone systems for Michigan businesses.
Digital Signage — Lobby displays, retail signage, and content management systems.
The right audio/video and communication systems keep a facility running smoothly and safely — from clear mass-notification paging in an emergency to professional video intercoms that screen visitors before a door ever opens. Michigan Security Systems designs and installs commercial AV, intercom, and public-address systems that integrate cleanly with your security infrastructure.
We install entry and video intercom systems, overhead paging and background music, distributed audio, and emergency mass-notification — using trusted brands such as Aiphone, Bogen, Avycon, and Honeywell. For schools, warehouses, healthcare, and municipal buildings, a properly engineered paging and notification system is a life-safety asset, not just a convenience. For offices and retail, video intercoms and managed entry add a polished, secure first point of contact.
Because we integrate AV with your access control and camera systems, a visitor at the intercom can be seen, verified, and granted entry from a single interface — and an emergency announcement can be tied into your broader security response. Our licensed technicians handle design, installation, and support end to end.

Yes. We design overhead paging and emergency mass-notification systems suited to large or multi-zone facilities, helping you reach the right areas clearly during day-to-day operations and emergencies.
Yes. We install distributed and zoned audio so you can play background music or make announcements to specific areas — common in retail, hospitality, and office environments.

Every security system you install — cameras, access control, alarms, intercoms — runs on the network and cabling underneath it. When that foundation is rushed or undersized, the whole system suffers: dropped camera feeds, slow access response, and costly troubleshooting. Michigan Security Systems installs the structured cabling and network infrastructure that commercial security depends on, designed and certified to industry standards.
We handle Cat6/Cat6A and fiber cabling, network switches, PoE infrastructure for cameras and access devices, wireless access points, and equipment racks — using proven hardware from Cisco, Ubiquiti / UniFi, Netgear, and D-Link. Whether you're building out a new facility, expanding, or cleaning up years of patchwork wiring, our technicians deliver organized, labeled, and documented cabling that's easy to service and ready to scale.
Because we're a security integrator first, we size and segment your network with security in mind — keeping camera and access traffic isolated and reliable. The result is infrastructure that not only supports today's systems but leaves room for tomorrow's, all installed by our own licensed team.

Because we design the cabling and network specifically to support security systems — proper PoE budgeting, network segmentation for cameras and access control, and the bandwidth those systems demand. We build the foundation knowing exactly what runs on it.
Yes. We install Cat6/Cat6A copper and fiber-optic cabling, choosing the right medium for each run based on distance, bandwidth, and environment.
Yes. We frequently re-cable and reorganize facilities with disorganized or aging wiring — labeling, documenting, and bringing everything up to standard so future service is fast and clean.

If you're a Michigan business owner evaluating commercial security cameras, you've probably noticed the market is overwhelming. Resolution numbers, storage acronyms, AI features, and wildly different price points make it nearly impossible to compare apples to apples. This guide cuts through the noise and gives Michigan business owners exactly what they need to make a smart buying decision.
Most Michigan businesses today should be installing 4K (8MP) IP cameras as the baseline. Here's why: a 4K camera covering a parking lot can identify license plates from 100+ feet away. A 1080p camera at the same distance gives you blurry rectangles. The price difference is small. The evidentiary difference is enormous.
For interior areas like retail floors, restaurant dining rooms, or office spaces, 4MP cameras deliver excellent detail at a lower cost.
Michigan law doesn't mandate a specific retention period for most businesses, but industry best practice is 30 days minimum. For Michigan marijuana facilities, METRC compliance requires a minimum of 30 days of continuous recording. For high-risk industries (cannabis, jewelry, automotive), we typically recommend 60–90 days.
The two main storage approaches:
For most Michigan businesses, we recommend a hybrid approach: on-premise NVR for primary storage with cloud backup of critical events.
Modern AI-powered cameras can distinguish between people, vehicles, and animals — meaning you stop getting alerts every time a deer walks across your parking lot. For Michigan businesses, this is genuinely useful. Features like license plate recognition (LPR), people counting, and intrusion zones add significant value.

If your Michigan business still uses physical keys, you're paying hidden costs you've never calculated. The average commercial rekey costs $300–$800 per door. The average lost-key incident costs even more once you factor in employee time, security risk, and emergency locksmith fees. Access control systems eliminate every one of these costs.
When an employee leaves your Michigan business — voluntarily or not — what happens to their key? In most companies, the honest answer is: nothing. The key gets "returned," but you have no way of knowing if a copy was made. The only truly secure response is rekeying every lock that key fit.
For a typical small-to-medium Michigan business with 3-5 doors, expect $4,000-$8,000 for a quality system installed. Larger facilities scale based on door count. Most Michigan businesses recover the investment in 18-24 months through eliminated rekey costs alone.

Michigan's licensed cannabis industry operates under some of the most demanding security requirements of any business sector. Whether you're operating a licensed dispensary or a cultivation facility, the Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA) requires specific security infrastructure — and getting it wrong can cost you your license. This guide covers what licensed Michigan operators must implement.
Michigan CRA rules require 24/7 video surveillance covering all of the following areas:
Cameras must capture clear, identifiable images and operate continuously.
Michigan requires a minimum of 30 days of continuous video retention, available to CRA investigators upon request. Most operators we work with choose 60-90 days as a safety margin. This requires substantial storage — a 32-camera facility typically needs 50-100TB of secure NVR capacity.
All limited access areas must be secured with electronic access control. This includes:
Access logs must be maintained and produced for state audits.
Licensed Michigan cannabis facilities must have professionally monitored intrusion alarm systems with 24/7 central station response. Dispensaries should also install silent panic/duress buttons at point-of-sale and management areas.
The state expects security infrastructure to be designed, installed, and maintained by qualified professionals. Michigan Security Systems holds the appropriate Michigan licenses and has installed compliant systems for licensed Michigan dispensaries and grow facilities. Call 586-466-4490 for a confidential consultation.
Not all alarm monitoring is created equal. The cheapest commercial alarm monitoring in Michigan is often the most expensive when something actually goes wrong. Here's what Michigan business owners need to evaluate.
A UL-listed central station meets strict standards for redundant power, backup systems, response procedures, and operator training. Many insurance carriers require UL-listed monitoring for premium discounts. Always insist on UL-listed.
Top central stations dispatch within 30-45 seconds of alarm receipt. Bad ones take 5+ minutes. When seconds matter to your Michigan business, this gap is the difference between a stopped break-in and a successful one.
Modern commercial alarm systems support audio and video verification — meaning the central station can see and hear what's happening before dispatching police. This reduces false alarm fees (which add up fast in many Michigan municipalities) and dramatically improves response.
Michigan Security Systems partners with UL-listed central stations and offers monitoring across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. Call 586-466-4490.
You don't need an enterprise budget to professionally secure your Michigan small business. Restaurants, salons, landscapers, contractors, retail shops, and dental offices can all install commercial-grade security camera systems for surprisingly reasonable costs. Here's the realistic playbook.
A professionally installed 4-camera system runs roughly $2,500-$4,500. An 8-camera system runs $4,500-$8,000. These prices include cameras, NVR, cabling, installation labor, configuration, and training.
Consumer kits from big-box stores look attractive at $500-$1,500, but they fail Michigan business owners in three ways: (1) image quality isn't sufficient for prosecution, (2) wireless cameras are easily jammed, and (3) there's no professional support when something breaks.
We install affordable security systems for Michigan landscapers, salons, restaurants, contractors, retail shops, dental and medical offices, auto shops, and more. Call 586-466-4490 for a free assessment.
If you're planning new construction, a tenant improvement, or a major renovation for your Michigan business, the structured cabling decision matters more than most owners realize. Get it wrong and you'll re-pull cable in 5 years. Get it right and the infrastructure lasts 20+ years.
For most Michigan businesses doing new construction in 2026, install Cat6A. The cost premium over Cat6 is roughly 15-25%, but the future-proofing is worth it.
10 Gigabit speeds aren't just for tech companies anymore. 4K video surveillance, modern access control, VoIP phone systems, and Wi-Fi 6E access points are all driving higher bandwidth requirements. Cabling installed today should last 15-20 years. What you can imagine needing in 2040 is more than Cat6 can handle.
We install BICSI-standard Cat6 and Cat6A structured cabling for Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana businesses — including new construction, remodels, and IDF/MDF buildouts. Call 586-466-4490.
