From the Westfield Newmarket precinct and the Broadway / Khyber Pass retail spine to the office buildings along Carlton Gore and the residential streets of Carlton and Olympic Avenue, Comsys installs CCTV, access control, intruder alarms, and intercoms for Newmarket properties.
Newmarket is Auckland’s second-largest retail precinct after the CBD, anchored by Westfield Newmarket and the Broadway / Khyber Pass / Remuera Road retail spine. It’s also a working office and medical district: professional services along Carlton Gore Road, specialist medical along Mortimer Pass and Crowhurst Street, and a steady run of small boutique retail and hospitality in the surrounding side streets. Residential density is high — mid- and high-rise apartments around Olympic Avenue, Lumsden Green, and Augustus Terrace, plus older villas and townhouses on Carlton Avenue, Davis Crescent, and the streets running up to Mt Eden and Remuera. Newmarket has the highest density of body-corporate buildings on the central isthmus.
Comsys reaches Newmarket from Glendene in around 25 minutes via SH16 outside peak. Most Newmarket commercial work happens inside multi-tenant buildings, so we coordinate with building managers, sign on to safety inductions, and produce as-built drawings for handover. Our stock list covers what professional integrators in NZ install — Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Paxton, HID, 2N, Aiphone — and we run office and retail cabling outside trading hours where required.
Newmarket apartment owners typically want a turret on the apartment’s entry door (privacy-masked over the corridor), integration with the building’s existing intercom (most newer buildings have 2N or Aiphone in place), and a small alarm panel with PIRs and door contacts that arms when the apartment is empty. Body-corporate-owned cameras (lobby, lift, basement, bin room) stay separate from owner cameras; the building manager runs those. We’ll confirm the boundary before quoting.
For Newmarket villas and townhouses on streets like Carlton Avenue, Mortimer Pass, and Mahuru Street, the typical scope is a 4–6 camera IP CCTV system with cable runs through the ceiling cavity to avoid disturbing the lining. Front-of-house, driveway, side passages, and back-deck coverage cover most layouts; an internal entry turret rounds it out. ColorVu / Full-Color cameras give usable colour identification at night on the street side.
For Carlton Gore Road and Khyber Pass office tenancies, the standard scope is Paxton Net2 or HID Signo on the main door and any server / comms room, an alarm panel with PIRs and door contacts, 4–8 IP cameras (entry ID, reception, kitchen, server-room door, lift lobby on multi-floor sites), and a written commissioning pack. Specialist medical tenancies around Mortimer Pass and Crowhurst Street typically add panic / duress configuration on the alarm, audited access logs on consult-room doors, and a separate retention policy for cameras near patient areas under the Privacy Act 2020 and Health Information Privacy Code.
For Broadway / Khyber Pass retail and Westfield-adjacent tenancies, the brief is identification at the entry, a till camera with timestamp overlay, back-of-house and stockroom coverage, and an alarm with glassbreak detection on the shopfront. We work to landlord and centre-management approvals where they apply — Westfield, AMP, and the major centres each have their own contractor sign-on processes that we’re familiar with.
Free on-site assessment. We walk the property, note risks, and discuss what the system needs to do.
Itemised quote with brand, model, camera count, cabling notes, and labour. No "from $X" placeholders.
Most residential jobs are a single day. Cabling is run discreetly through ceiling cavities and exterior conduit.

Yes. We routinely work in Westfield, Lumley Centre, and other multi-tenant buildings around Newmarket. Each centre has its own contractor approval and sign-on process; we hold the relevant inductions and we’ll confirm any centre-specific requirements (after-hours-only work, key-card escort, camera-spec approvals) before quoting. As-built drawings are produced on handover for the centre’s facilities team.
Cameras inside or covering patient areas (waiting rooms, consult rooms, treatment areas) need a clear privacy purpose and signage, footage retention no longer than necessary, and access controls that limit who can view recordings. We typically size NVR storage to 14–30 days for clinical-area cameras and longer (60–90 days) for non-clinical perimeter and entry cameras as a documented decision. Health Information Privacy Code obligations apply alongside the Privacy Act 2020.
Inside your apartment, generally no. For anything that involves common property — door, lobby, corridor, basement — the body corporate’s rules apply and approval is usually required. We’ll confirm what falls inside the unit and outside before quoting, and we use privacy masking on internal apartment cameras to ensure no neighbouring corridor or door is recorded.
Yes. Modern alarm panels support partial arming or "perimeter" zones so the front-of-shop motion sensors can stay armed while staff use a back-of-house entry to set up before opening. We zone the panel during commissioning and document each user’s code or credential so the right access is granted to the right people.
