One of the most common questions Melbourne business owners ask is: 

“How much does CCTV installation cost?” 


Here’s a transparent breakdown. 

1. Average CCTV Pricing in Melbourne

Most commercial CCTV installations fall between:

  • $1,800–$3,500 for small businesses (2–4 cameras)
  • $4,000–$9,000 for medium premises (6–12 cameras)
  • $10,000+ for warehouses or large commercial sites

2. What Affects The Cost?

  • Number of cameras

More cameras = more equipment + installation labour.


  • Camera type

PTZ and high-megapixel cameras cost more.


  • Building layout

Ceiling height, cabling complexity and wall type all matter.


  • Storage needs

NVR capacity influences price.

3. Why Cheap CCTV Ends Up Costing More

Big-box retail kits often fail due to:

  • Poor night vision
  • Low durability
  • Limited warranty
  • No remote support
  • Missed footage due to weak storage
