From the Te Atatū Peninsula village and waterfront to the Te Atatū South retail strip and the residential streets running back from the harbour, Comsys installs CCTV, alarms, access control, and intercoms for Te Atatū properties — we’re ten minutes away in Glendene.
Te Atatū covers two distinct areas: the Te Atatū Peninsula running out into the upper harbour with a tight village core around Te Atatū Road and Beach Road, and Te Atatū South around the Te Atatū Road / SH16 interchange with retail and a small commercial cluster. Peninsula housing is a mix of 1960s–80s family homes and waterfront properties along Beach Road, Bryken Place, and the streets running down to the upper harbour foreshore. Te Atatū South is mostly brick-and-tile family housing with retail on Te Atatū Road. Risks split between residential opportunistic break-and-enter, retail after-hours risk on the village strips, and salt-air corrosion for properties near the upper harbour.
Comsys is based in Glendene — about 10 minutes from Te Atatū via SH16 outside peak. Local-installer benefit is real for Te Atatū sites: short site-visit lead time and quick response on system issues. We hold stock for Hikvision, Dahua, Uniview, Paxton, Paradox, and Aiphone. Salt-air-rated cameras (IP66+, marine-grade brackets) are stocked for waterfront work.
A typical Te Atatū residential install is a 4–6 camera IP CCTV system. For 3- or 4-bedroom brick-and-tile homes off Beach Road, Vodanovich Road, or McLeod Road, four cameras (front, back, one side, internal entry) is the practical fit. ColorVu / Full-Color cameras on the street side give usable colour identification at night. Wireless alarm panels (Ajax, Paradox MG) suit older homes where new cable runs are awkward.
For Te Atatū Peninsula waterfront properties along Beach Road, Bryken Place, and the streets running down to the harbour foreshore, we use IP66+ rated cameras with marine-grade brackets to cope with salt air. A long-throw bullet covering the waterfront and any boat ramp or kayak storage approach (with privacy mask over public foreshore) is often added. Larger family homes with detached garages or boat / trailer storage get a turret inside the garage (recording to the main NVR).
Te Atatū village retail and Te Atatū South commercial strip typically wants a discreet entry-mounted identification camera, a till camera with timestamp overlay, a back-of-house camera, and a small alarm with glassbreak detection on the shopfront. Cafés add kitchen-pass coverage. Professional services and dental / medical tenancies use Paxton Net2 on the main door and treatment rooms, alarm with PIRs, and 2–4 cameras.
For body-corporate apartment buildings around the Te Atatū village and the SH16 interchange, we install IP video intercoms at the lobby, Paxton Net2 access on common doors and basement carparks, and CCTV on lobbies and bin rooms. We document the system in a written handover pack for the body corporate’s facilities team.
Free on-site assessment. We walk the property, note risks, and discuss what the system needs to do.

Most residential jobs are a single day. Cabling is run discreetly through ceiling cavities and exterior conduit.

We’re based in Glendene — 10 minutes from Te Atatū. Most residential site visits can be booked within 2–3 working days, and most installs completed in a single day the following week. For commercial sites we coordinate with the tenant or landlord on access; cabling can usually start within a fortnight.
Yes. Anywhere within a kilometre of the upper-harbour foreshore on Te Atatū Peninsula gets salt-air corrosion that kills cheap cameras within 2–3 years. We use IP66+ rated cameras with marine-grade brackets and stainless screws, plus powder-coated housings that outlast bare aluminium. Yearly rinse-down on visible cameras during scheduled maintenance is recommended.
Yes. The panel is zoned so external doors, sliders, and living-area motion sensors stay armed at night while sleeping areas are bypassed. We set the partial-arm mode up during commissioning so you press one button to switch. Most modern panels (Paradox, Ajax, Bosch, Inner Range) support this out of the box.
Yes — recording continues to the on-site NVR independently of internet. What stops working is remote app viewing and any cloud backup. Local USB export is still available so you can hand footage to police or your insurer without internet.
