Security is a top priority for commercial properties. Businesses, warehouses, and office buildings depend on CCTV systems to protect assets, monitor activity, and comply with safety standards. For commercial property installers, offering CCTV leasing options can make advanced security solutions more accessible to clients while creating recurring revenue opportunities.
Lower Upfront Costs for Clients – Many businesses can’t afford full installations outright.
Faster Sales for Installers – Leasing makes it easier to close deals.

Upgrade Opportunities – Clients can switch to newer technology at lease-end.
Tax Benefits – Lease payments may qualify as deductible business expenses.
✔ IP Camera Systems – High-definition cameras with network connectivity.
✔ Analog Systems – Budget-friendly CCTV options.
✔ Wireless CCTV Cameras – Flexible installation for expanding properties.
✔ NVR/DVR Units – Video recorders with cloud backup options.
✔ Access Control Integration – Combine surveillance with security doors and alarms.
Equipment is returned or upgraded at lease-end.

Higher monthly payments.

A commercial installer quotes a client:
16-Camera IP System with NVR = $25,000
Access Control Integration = $10,000
Installation & Setup = $5,000
Total Project Cost: $40,000
Instead of paying upfront, the client chooses a 5-year operating lease at about $725/month.
The installer closes the deal faster, and the client gains high-level security at an affordable rate.
✔ Partner with equipment finance companies that specialize in security systems.
✔ Market leasing as a selling point—“Upgrade your security for as little as $500/month.”
✔ Bundle maintenance and monitoring services with lease contracts for extra revenue.
✔ Highlight ROI—reduced theft, lower insurance premiums, and compliance.
✔ Train sales teams to position leasing as a budget-friendly solution for clients.
For commercial property installers, offering CCTV leasing programs is a powerful way to increase sales, serve more clients, and build steady revenue. Businesses benefit from affordable access to advanced surveillance, while installers strengthen their long-term relationships through recurring service agreements.
