Why Choose Abvolt Automation
Unlike most security installers, an Abvolt engineer is present on every project — not just a technician. This ensures your system is designed and installed to perform flawlessly from day one, with optimal camera placement, clean wiring, and proper network configuration.
We specialize in hardwired security installations that deliver reliable, interference-free performance 24/7. Wired systems eliminate battery replacements, Wi-Fi bandwidth issues, and signal dropouts — providing the dependability your home or business deserves.
Our security camera systems use artificial intelligence to distinguish between people, vehicles, animals, and environmental motion. This means fewer false alerts and faster response times when a genuine threat is detected on your property.
Abvolt Automation is backed by the electrical expertise of our sister company, bringing decades of licensed electrical experience to every security installation. Proper power, grounding, and structured cabling make the difference between a system that works and one that lasts.
We take pride in installations that look as good as they perform. Cables are run inside walls, conduits are color-matched, and equipment is mounted with precision. Your security system should protect your property — not detract from its appearance.
Based in Lake Bluff and serving all of Lake County and the North Shore, we're nearby when you need us. Whether it's a system expansion, a camera adjustment, or a service call, our team responds quickly because we're part of your community.
Our Installation Process
We visit your property to assess entry points, vulnerabilities, and coverage requirements. We discuss your security goals and walk through options that fit your budget and needs.
Our engineer designs a tailored security system with optimal camera placement, sensor positioning, and wiring routes. You receive a detailed proposal with equipment specs, layout diagrams, and transparent pricing.
Our licensed team installs your complete security system — cameras, cabling, access control, alarms, and networking. Every wire is run cleanly, every device is tested, and every connection is verified.
We walk you through your entire system, set up mobile access, and make sure you're comfortable managing everything. After installation, we're always a phone call away for adjustments, expansions, or service.

Abvolt Automation provides professional security system installation for single-family homes, estates, condos, commercial offices, retail stores, restaurants, warehouses, and multi-family residential buildings.

Most residential security camera installations are completed in a single day. Larger commercial projects or full security system installations with access control, alarm systems, and multiple camera zones typically take 2–5 days depending on the scope and complexity.

We install systems that integrate with leading professional monitoring services for 24/7 alarm response, fire dispatch, and emergency notifications. We also set up self-monitoring through mobile apps so you can view live camera feeds and receive instant alerts directly on your phone.
Wired security camera systems deliver more reliable, higher-quality video without the interference, latency, and battery limitations of wireless systems. They don't compete for Wi-Fi bandwidth and can't be jammed or disrupted. For properties where long-term reliability matters, wired installations are the professional standard — and our specialty.
