CCTV Installation Price in Saudi Arabia 2026: Full Cost Guide

Many homeowners and shop owners in Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam search for the price of CCTV installation in Saudi Arabia before deciding to protect their property. It is a fair question — prices vary widely between quotes, neighborhoods, and between a basic setup and a professional system. In this Fixlr guide we break down the real 2026 cost, how to avoid overpaying, and why installation by a verified technician is worth it. ## What does CCTV installation actually cost in 2026? There is no single price, because the cost splits into two parts: the hardware and the installation labor. ### Hardware cost Individual basic cameras start around 300 SAR each, while advanced professional systems (4K, ColorVu color night vision, cloud storage) can exceed 6,000 SAR for a full setup, plus the NVR/DVR recorder, storage drive, cabling and power supply. ### Installation and setup A complete, ready-to-use home system in Riyadh typically ranges from about 1,500 to 2,800 SAR depending on the number and type of cameras (wired, Wi-Fi, or ColorVu) and cabling difficulty. This includes mounting, configuration and phone linking. ## What determines the final price? - Number of cameras - Camera resolution and type - Wired vs wireless - Building type — villas and multi-floor buildings cost more - Storage choice — local drive vs monthly cloud See Fixlr's camera service page: getfixlr.com/services/security-camera. ## Camera types and price impact - Wired PoE cameras: high quality and stable — best for villas and shops. - Wi-Fi cameras: fast install, fewer wires — ideal for apartments and rentals. - ColorVu night vision: sees color in near-total darkness. - Smart video doorbell: combines bell, camera and phone alerts, and pairs with a smart lock.
