Cloud access control, video surveillance, and AI threat detection for apartment communities across Los Angeles - one accountable team for every building you manage.
Turnover, lost keys, package theft, and blurry cameras cost you time, money, and good residents.
Re-keying on every move-out and lost fob is a constant, costly time-sink.
Unsecured lobbies and mailrooms are a magnet for porch pirates.
Propped doors and shared codes let anyone wander common areas.
Cameras that are down or too grainy to identify anyone when it counts.
Everything works together and is managed for you - across one building or your whole portfolio.
Keyless entry plus a modern video intercom residents answer from their phone - and instant lockout on move-out, no re-keying.
Manage every door and camera across your portfolio from one place.
Secure access and cameras for mail and parcel areas.
Clear coverage with smart search of entries, garages, and amenities.
Time-limited codes for guests, deliveries, and contractors.
Flag weapons and unusual activity and trigger alerts in real time.
Resident experience
Great multifamily security stays out of the way. Residents get keyless entry and a video intercom on their phone; you get one dashboard, fewer support calls, and a property that shows better on tour.
Cameras that only record give you evidence after the fact. Our systems act in the moment: AI detects the threat, a live agent verifies it, doors lock, and everyone is notified.

Active-threat protection
"SmartConnect L.A. has been fabulous — they installed security cameras on my property and have always been available when I've had questions or concerns."
Two audiences
Apartment security has two audiences: residents who want to feel safe, and managers who need it simple to run. We design for both.
Lost keys, tailgating, package theft, and tenant turnover quietly drain time and money. Modern multifamily security fixes the root causes.
