Security camera installation in Riyadh with an identity-verified technician starts from SAR 149 for a single camera, with published-price packages for four and eight cameras including the recorder and cable runs — same-day slots across Riyadh districts and a written 14-day installation warranty.
Security cameras are the most requested service on our platform in Riyadh, and the first question is always the same: what does it really cost including cable runs and the recorder? On this page you will find packages with published prices instead of "call for a quote", a straight explanation of wired versus Wi-Fi, the storage options for your footage, and the right camera placement for an apartment or a villa.
Prices are for installing devices you buy yourself; if you have not bought yet, start with the CCTV buying guide with installation for Saudi Arabia to learn which specifications are actually worth paying for.
Wi-Fi cameras are faster to install and cheaper, and they suit apartments and entrances close to the router — but they depend on signal strength and need a nearby power socket. Wired systems need cable runs and take longer, yet they are the proven choice for villas and shops: a stable picture, recording that does not stop when the Wi-Fi does, and more cameras without slowing the home network. The practical rule: one or two cameras inside an apartment? Wi-Fi is enough. Four cameras or more, or outdoor distances? Go wired from the start.
In an apartment, one camera for the entrance and another for the living room or balcony is usually enough, which makes the single-camera option the best value. In a villa we recommend covering the main gate, the car park, the back yard, and every service entrance — which is exactly what makes the four- or eight-camera package far cheaper than buying piecemeal. In shops, one camera points at the till and another at the door, with aisle coverage sized to the floor area. Your Fixlr technician walks the property with you before starting and proposes positions that actually cover the blind spots instead of spacing cameras evenly along the walls.
Saudi regulations prohibit pointing cameras at neighbours' property or into their homes, and limit filming to your own property and its entrances. While setting the angles, the technician warns you if a camera is capturing what it should not, and re-aims the field of view to comply — protection for you first and foremost. Keep your recordings long enough, too: the authorities may request them after any report, and a full disk silently overwrites the oldest footage.
Typical offers in Riyadh run between SAR 100 and 200 per camera without cable runs, and the cost climbs quickly once cables, a recorder, and more points are involved. Our packages are published and inclusive: SAR 149 for a single camera, SAR 499 for four cameras with the recorder and cabling, and SAR 899 for eight cameras with the recorder. Compare the numbers yourself in the CCTV installation price guide for Saudi Arabia, and read the local market detail in the CCTV installation guide for Riyadh.
Fixlr technicians cover Riyadh's main districts: Al Malqa, Al Narjis, Al Yasmin, Hittin, and Al Qirawan in the north; Al Olaya, Al Wurud, and Al Malaz in the centre; Al Shifa, Tuwaiq, and Dhahrat Laban in the south and west — plus the rest of the districts inside the urban boundary. Enter your address at booking and you will only see technicians who actually cover your district.
The booking journey is described step by step on how Fixlr works, and every electronically paid installation carries a written 14-day workmanship warranty: if an installation-related fault appears within that window, the technician returns and fixes it entirely at our expense.
On Fixlr the prices are published before you book: a single camera from SAR 149, a 4-camera package with recorder and cable runs at SAR 499, and an 8-camera package at SAR 899. Prices are VAT-inclusive and cover mounting, cabling, programming, app pairing, and testing — the devices themselves are not included.
No — the published prices cover installation, cabling, and programming only, and you buy the devices that suit you from any store. That protects you from the hidden hardware markup some providers add, and lets our technician advise you with full neutrality because he is not selling you a device in the first place.
The 4-camera package with cabling and a recorder usually takes 3 to 5 hours depending on cable-run lengths and wall types. A single Wi-Fi camera is done in 45 to 60 minutes, and the 8-camera package can need a full working day in larger villas.
For apartments with one or two cameras near the router, Wi-Fi is usually enough. For villas, shops, and any system of four cameras or more we recommend wired runs: a steadier picture, recording that survives internet outages, and less load on the home network. The technician assesses the site and recommends the right option before work starts.
Yes, within your property line: regulations allow covering your entrances, fence, and parking area, and prohibit aiming cameras at neighbours' property, into their homes, or in any way that exposes others' privacy. Your Fixlr technician sets the viewing angles during installation to comply with these rules.
Every installation paid electronically through Fixlr carries a written 14-day warranty on the technician's workmanship: if an installation-related fault appears — a tilted camera, an unsecured cable, or a recorder setup issue — the technician returns and fixes it at our expense. The devices keep their own manufacturer warranty.
