    WHO WE SECURE

    No matter the size, type, or layout of your building, we secure it

    • A single unit or a whole apartment building
    • Walk-ups, mid-rises, and high-rise towers
    • Lobbies, hallways, stairwells, and mailrooms
    • Main entrances, garages, and side doors
    • Package rooms, amenity spaces, and laundry areas
    • Resident, visitor, and delivery access
    • New construction or an existing building retrofit
    • A standalone unit setup or a fully integrated building system

    Apartment buildings have a security problem that single-family homes don’t: shared entrances, dozens of residents and visitors, constant turnover, and doors that have to stay open enough for everyone who belongs while staying closed to everyone who doesn’t. Lock & Tech USA designs and installs security systems for apartment buildings across New York City — cameras, alarms, access control, and intercoms — and ties them into one manageable system instead of a stack of separate devices.

    Every project starts with an on-site assessment of your entrances, common areas, and how residents and visitors move through the building, so the design fits how the property actually runs. Our licensed team handles the full process — design, installation, configuration, and training — and gives you a fixed quote before any work begins.

    Apartment Security Cameras

    A well-designed apartment camera system covers the places incidents actually happen — lobbies, hallways, entrances, mailrooms, package areas, and parking. We install Uniview and Hikvision cameras with your choice of NVR or cloud storage and secure remote access, so managers and residents can keep an eye on shared spaces without watching individual units.

    Apartment Alarm Systems

    A monitored apartment alarm system protects units and common areas the moment a door, window, or motion sensor is triggered. We install systems built on Honeywell, DSC, Bosch, and DMP equipment, backed by 24/7 central-station monitoring and real-time mobile alerts.

    Apartment Access Control

    Apartment access control gives residents fobs, cards, or mobile credentials for entrances, garages, and amenity rooms, and lets management revoke a departing tenant’s access in seconds — no re-keying the building. We install systems from Keri Systems, Rosslare, Paxton, and Brivo, with cloud management across single or multiple properties.

    Apartment Intercom Systems

    An apartment intercom lets residents see and buzz in visitors and deliveries from a panel or their phone, so the front door stays locked without anyone getting stuck outside. We install multi-tenant video intercoms from Aiphone, Comelit, Akuvox, and ButterflyMX, and connect them to your access control so one system runs the entrance.

    Industries We Serve

    Every property type has its own security demands, and we design around each one — from single-family homes and the operations of businesses, to schools, hospitals, warehouses, and retail stores.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does an apartment security system cost?

    It depends on the size of the building, the number of units and entrances, and which systems you combine. We provide a fixed quote after a free on-site assessment, so you know the full cost before any work starts.

    Can residents buzz in visitors from their phones?

    Yes. With an app-based intercom, residents can see and speak with a visitor at the entrance and release the door from their phone, whether they’re home or out.

    Can we remove a tenant’s access when they move out?

    Yes. Access control lets management deactivate a departing resident’s fob, card, or mobile credential in seconds and issue new ones — no need to re-key doors or change locks for the whole building.

    Can a single renter get a system, or is this only for whole buildings?

    Both. We install building-wide systems for property managers and owners, and standalone cameras or alarms for individual units. We’ll recommend what fits your space and, if you rent, what’s appropriate for a leased unit.

    Is Lock & Tech USA licensed?

    Yes. Lock & Tech USA is licensed, and installations are carried out by licensed technicians.

    What warranty comes with an apartment security installation?

    Installations carry a 90-day warranty on mechanical components and a 12-month warranty on electrical components. Repair work is not covered under warranty.

    Lock and Tech delivers top-tier service. The team is professional, knowledgeable, and shows up ready to solve the problem—not experiment. Fast response times, clear explanations without tech jargon overload, and a genuine sense that they care about the client, not just the hardware. The work was done efficiently and cleanly, using up-to-date technology that feels both secure and forward-thinking. If you’re looking for reliability, expertise, and real customer service (yes, it still exists), Lock and Tech is the right choice.

    Hired this company to move our intercom system from inside to outside and also to install a new magnetic door lock on the outside glass door. This company did a great job and did a professional installation. They even helped us set up the AxTrax software for free to help manage access for our key-fob system. Recommended!!

    Gabriel and his team installed a new intercom system in my building. They are so professional and responsive. They did the job quickly yet with precision. It is such an improvement from what we had, I can’t believe we waited so long to do it. I highly recommend Lock and Tech!

    It was nice to have a professional company install my intercom system. Much better than these "save a dollar" places that don't have a store and make a mess. But this place has smart, nice people who are professional and know what they're doing. I highly recommend Lock and Tech!
