UniFi Installer for the Hollywood Hills and Laurel Canyon

Steep streets, houses stacked down a slope and glass walls make for tricky Wi-Fi and camera coverage. We plan around the terrain.

Low voltage in Hollywood Hills

Homes in the Hollywood Hills, Laurel Canyon, Los Feliz and Silver Lake are often built into a slope, with a carport or garage at street level and living space several floors below or above it. Roads are narrow, lots are small and steep, and the view side of the house is mostly glass.

Those conditions change the plan. A camera that watches the street may need a pole, a signal that works in the living room may not reach the bedroom floor below, and every extra foot of cable climbs or descends a retaining wall. We scope all of that during the walkthrough so the estimate matches what the job takes.

01 / WHAT PROPERTIES HERE NEED

What we plan for in Hollywood Hills

01

Houses on several levels

Wi-Fi does not travel well through a concrete floor or a retaining wall. We put an access point on each level and connect them with cable back to a central switch, instead of relying on one device to reach down a hillside.

02

Street-level cameras and poles

The street is often far above or below the front door. Cameras on the entry stairs, the carport and the approach cover what a camera by the door cannot see. Where there is no mounting surface, a metal post can hold the camera.

03

Glass, decks and outdoor living

Large glazing and wide decks make outdoor Wi-Fi worth planning. Weather-rated access points cover decks and pools, and cameras can watch rear slopes and fence lines where the property is open.

04

Spotty cell signal

Cell reception in canyons can be uneven. Wi-Fi calling relies on solid indoor Wi-Fi, so coverage in the bedrooms and the office matters. A site survey shows you where the signal is weakest.

FAQ
Can cameras see the street from a house set far below it?

Usually, with the right location. We walk the property to find a spot with a clear view, and sometimes that means a post at the street edge instead of a mount on the house.

Why do my bedrooms have weak Wi-Fi?

Floors and retaining walls absorb signal. Adding an access point on that level, wired back to your network, usually fixes it better than a repeater.

Do you cover Silver Lake and Los Feliz?

Yes. We serve those neighborhoods along with the Hollywood Hills and Laurel Canyon, and you can request an estimate.
