Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install a camera that sees the street?▾
Your camera should aim at your property. Continuously filming the public way or a neighbour's lot raises privacy issues. An experienced installer adjusts angle and field of view accordingly.
Wired or wireless?▾
Wired is more reliable and does not depend on batteries, but requires installation work. Wireless installs quickly and suits rentals or cases where opening walls is impossible.
What happens during a power outage?▾
Depending on the system, it may shut down or switch to a backup battery. Ask before buying, and always keep a way into your home that needs no electricity.
Is an electrician needed for installation?▾
For anything involving permanent electrical wiring, yes: an RBQ licence and CMEQ membership are required.
How do I protect my data?▾
Change default passwords, enable two-factor authentication, and find out where video is stored and for how long.
Locksmith & Security in Montréal: what to know
Cameras, smart locks, detectors, smart thermostats: the offering has exploded, and installation quality matters as much as the devices.
Cameras and neighbours
A camera should watch your property, not the neighbour's or the street continuously. Filming beyond your own lot raises privacy questions that can come back on you. A serious installer advises on orientation and field of view.
Power and network
A reliable setup rests on stable power and a solid network. Wireless devices depend on your connection and their batteries. In an older plex with thick walls, signal coverage should be verified before buying.
Smart locks
Convenient, provided you plan for failure: dead battery, network outage, lost phone. Always keep a way in that does not depend on electricity.
Licence
For electrical work tied to the installation, the contractor must hold a Régie du bâtiment du Québec licence and belong to the CMEQ.
