Commercial Security Systems in Greater Melbourne

Fortis Security designs, installs and maintains commercial security systems for businesses across Greater Melbourne and nationally. A commercial security system typically combines CCTV surveillance, access control, intrusion detection and alarm monitoring – either as standalone components or as a single integrated security solution built around your site, risk profile and budget.

Since 2013, we’ve delivered commercial security systems for retail, industrial, healthcare, education and critical infrastructure sites across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia and the Northern Territory. Every system we design is backed by ongoing service and maintenance, so it keeps performing long after installation.

Comparing Commercial Security System Types

Not every business needs the same commercial security system. The right setup depends on site size, risk level, compliance requirements and whether you’re securing one location or several. Here’s how the main options compare:

Most Fortis Security clients start with one or two of these components and expand into a fully integrated security system as their site or risk profile grows — our designs are built to scale that way from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a commercial security system?

A commercial security system is a combination of CCTV, access control, intrusion detection and monitoring designed to protect a business’s people, property and assets. Systems range from a single component (like CCTV) to a fully integrated security solution.

How much does a commercial security system cost in Australia?

Cost depends on site size, number of cameras/access points, and whether the system is integrated or standalone. Fortis Security provides tailored quotes after a site assessment – contact us for a free consultation.

Can you integrate a new system with our existing CCTV or access control?

Yes. Our team regularly integrates new components with existing alarm, CCTV and access control systems to avoid replacing infrastructure that’s still working.

Do you provide ongoing maintenance and monitoring?

Yes – we offer scheduled service and maintenance plans, plus ASIAL Grade A1 monitoring for alarm response.

How long does installation typically take?

Timelines vary by scope – a single-site CCTV and access control install is typically completed faster than a multi-site integrated rollout. We provide a project timeline as part of every quote.
