Who We Are

California's Commercial
Security Integrator

SOV Security, the commercial and industrial division of SOV Security, has been designing, installing, and maintaining Electronic Security Systems for California businesses since 1984. From healthcare campuses and food production facilities to freight terminals and energy infrastructure, we bring the same disciplined approach that has earned us trust across the public sector into the commercial market.

We are a CSLB-licensed California contractor, which means our technicians are vetted, bonded, and operating within the full regulatory framework required for commercial construction. No unlicensed subcontractors. No gray-market product sourcing. Just accountable, professional security integration.

Our approach is vendor-neutral. We evaluate your environment, threat profile, and operational needs first, then we select the technology that fits your facility.

Our Approach

Built Around Your Operations

We begin every commercial engagement with a site walk. We look at the facility's physical layout, existing infrastructure, shift patterns, and access control requirements before recommending any technology.

Design documents are produced in-house. Our team draws the camera coverage plans, writes the access control credential matrix, and specifies the cabling topology, so when installation begins, the field technicians are working from a real plan, not improvising on the fly.

After commissioning, we provide a full as-built package: cable schedules, camera index, access controller configuration backup, and system administrator training. You own your system. We support it.

Why SOV

What Sets Us Apart
in the Commercial Market

No Single-Vendor Obligation

We are not locked into any manufacturer's dealer program. We select Avigilon, Genetec, Axis, Gallagher, or other platforms based on what fits your facility, not our preferred vendor agreement.

Local Service Team

Our technicians are California-based and familiar with your site.

Public Agency Procurement Options

Our GSA/CMAS Schedule contracts give eligible organizations (including healthcare systems, utilities, and quasi-public entities) a compliant procurement pathway without a separate competitive bid process.
