Short-Stay & Airbnb Security

Security for Perth Airbnb and Short-Stay Properties

Privacy-compliant CCTV, smart access, and reliable WiFi for short-stay operators across Perth. Installed by a WA Police Licensed Security Agent.

Short-stay rentals have unique security needs. Cameras have to be compliant with Airbnb's host policy and WA privacy law. Smart access has to be reliable. WiFi has to actually work. We install security and connectivity systems specifically designed for short-stay properties — and we know the rules.

What's Involved

A Complete Short-Stay Security Install

CCTV — Exterior Only

Front entry, driveway, parking, and common exterior areas. Positioned and configured to comply with Airbnb's host policy and WA privacy law. Disclosed in your listing as part of the handover.

Smart Access — No Key Handovers

Keyless entry with rotating per-guest codes and a full audit log of every entry. Access control systems are designed per property — speak to Jake about what suits your setup.

Reliable WiFi

Guest network and property management network on the same install. Most short-stay complaints are about WiFi — we fix it properly with access points, not consumer routers pushed to their limit.

Remote Monitoring via Hik-Connect

Live view, event notifications, and playback from anywhere on your phone. One app for cameras, alarm, and access — no separate logins.

Optional Alarm System

For periods between guests when the property is unoccupied. Hikvision AX Pro with push notifications — arm and disarm remotely without being on-site.

Ongoing Service Plans

For revenue-earning properties, uptime matters. We offer service plans with priority callout response so a failed camera doesn't affect your listing rating.

Know the Rules

Compliance for Short-Stay Hosts

Airbnb Host Policy

  • No cameras inside the property — including bedrooms, bathrooms, and sleeping areas
  • All exterior cameras must be disclosed in the listing before booking
  • Cameras cannot be hidden or concealed
  • We supply listing disclosure wording as part of every install

WA Privacy Law

  • No audio recording in living spaces without consent
  • Cameras must not capture neighbouring properties
  • Signage required in some circumstances — we advise on this
  • All placements reviewed against Privacy Act 1988 requirements

We design every short-stay system around these rules from the start — not as an afterthought.
