Service area / Santa Barbara County and southern San Luis Obispo County
Where Keith Systems works on site, and where the work can be remote
Find your town below, then follow it to the closest city page for local detail. If you are on the edge of the map, a phone call settles it faster than a guess.
On site across Santa Barbara County and southern San Luis Obispo County
We are one person, Jacob Keith, working out of Lompoc. Camera and door access installs happen on your property, so on-site work is limited to Santa Barbara County and the southern part of San Luis Obispo County. The groups below follow how people on the Central Coast actually think about the area: by valley and by stretch of coast.
Each town with its own page is linked, with one line about what tends to matter there. Smaller towns are listed under the nearest city page, and that page is the right place to start. For a general look at how the process works before you call, read what to expect from the free walkthrough.
Lompoc Valley
Lompoc is home base. The Lompoc security camera page covers the valley's agricultural operations on the valley floor, light industrial property near the airport, and businesses along H Street and Ocean Avenue, plus the wind and fog that shape how cameras should be chosen and mounted.
Vandenberg Village and Mission Hills are close to Lompoc and are served from here, so the Lompoc page is the one to read for them. If you run a shop, office, or yard in town, the commercial security page for Lompoc shows how cameras and door access fit together for a business.
Santa Maria Valley
Santa Maria is roughly a half hour from Lompoc. The Santa Maria page deals with yards, warehouses, and storefronts, including the retail along the Broadway corridor.
Orcutt and Los Alamos are served from the Santa Maria page, and they are listed under Santa Maria rather than given pages of their own. If you are in either town, the Santa Maria page describes the kind of work we do there.
Santa Ynez Valley
Buellton is about twenty-five minutes from Lompoc, at the 101 and 246 junction with wineries nearby. See the Buellton page for what that means for cameras and access control.
Solvang has small retail, tasting rooms, and an architectural standard that affects how equipment can be mounted. The Solvang page covers it. Santa Ynez and Los Olivos are served as part of this valley, so start with the Solvang or Buellton page, whichever is closer to you.
Santa Barbara, Montecito, and Goleta
Santa Barbara properties often come with tile roofs, design review, and salt air, which call for discreet mounting planned around exposure. The Santa Barbara page goes into it, and Montecito is handled as part of the Santa Barbara area.
Goleta has technology employers, package theft, and rentals near campus, along with Old Town and the Camino Real corridor. The Goleta page is the place to start there.
Nipomo and the Five Cities
Nipomo is about fifteen minutes past Santa Maria. Its one to five acre parcels, poor internet, oak canopy, and dune wind and dust are covered on the Nipomo page. For acreage in general, the guide on rural property and gate cameras goes further.
The Five Cities are Arroyo Grande, Grover Beach, Pismo Beach, Shell Beach, and Oceano. The Arroyo Grande page covers salt air, the Village design review, and vacation rentals. The other four towns are listed under it and do not have separate pages.
Network security work, remote from anywhere
Not all of our work needs a site visit. Risk assessment, vulnerability management, remote access hardening, and an incident response plan with a tabletop exercise can be done remotely for a business anywhere, including well outside the Central Coast.
Details are on the network security page. If you want the practical case for separating cameras and devices from office computers, see the guide on network segmentation for small business.
Not sure if you are in range? Call.
The walkthrough is free and is usually scheduled within a week. If you have an active problem, call (805) 800-8163 rather than waiting for a form reply.
You can also email jacob@keithsystems.com with your town and what you are trying to protect. We will tell you plainly whether it is on our map.
Pages for the towns with their own write-up
- Security cameras and door access in LompocLompoc is home. The truck is here, the walkthrough usually happens within the week, and service afterward does not involve a dispatcher two counties away.See the Lompoc page
- Security cameras and door access in Santa MariaSanta Maria is the commercial center of the north county, and most of the work here reflects that: yards, warehouses, storefronts, and fleets rather than single homes.See the Santa Maria page
- Security cameras and door access in Santa BarbaraSanta Barbara work is defined by two constraints that rarely appear in a standard quote: the system has to be genuinely discreet, and the footage has to stay private.See the Santa Barbara page
- Security cameras and door access in GoletaGoleta splits cleanly into two kinds of work: residential properties dealing with package and vehicle theft, and technical employers who care as much about the network the cameras sit on as about the cameras.See the Goleta page
- Security cameras and door access in SolvangSolvang has a specific problem set: heavy visitor foot traffic through small retail spaces, and an architectural standard that rules out most of how cameras are normally mounted.See the Solvang page
- Security cameras and door access in BuelltonBuellton sits on the 101 and 246 junction, which is most of the story. High through-traffic, hospitality and production businesses along the corridor, and vineyard properties spreading out from it.See the Buellton page
- Security cameras and door access in NipomoNipomo is a parcel problem more than a building problem. One to five acres, a long driveway, a detached shop, and a gate that nobody can see from the house.See the Nipomo page
- Security cameras and door access in Arroyo GrandeCoastal work is its own discipline. Salt air destroys hardware that was specified for inland conditions, and it does it quietly enough that nobody notices until the footage is gone.See the Arroyo Grande page
Questions
Common questions.
Do you come out to Orcutt, Los Alamos, or Mission Hills?
Yes. Orcutt and Los Alamos are on our service list and grouped with Santa Maria, and Mission Hills is grouped with Lompoc. They are covered by the city pages for Santa Maria and Lompoc, so the walkthrough and written plan work the same as anywhere else we serve on site.
Do you cover Pismo Beach, Shell Beach, Grover Beach, and Oceano?
Yes. Together with Arroyo Grande they make up the Five Cities, and they sit in the southern San Luis Obispo County part of our on-site area. The Arroyo Grande page is the closest city page for all four.
Do you work outside Santa Barbara County?
Our on-site work covers Santa Barbara County and southern San Luis Obispo County. If your property is outside that area, call and we will tell you honestly whether we can help. Network security work is the exception, since it can be done remotely.
Can you do network security work if my business is not on the Central Coast?
Yes. Assessment, vulnerability management, remote access hardening, and incident response planning do not require us to be on your premises. The network security service page lists what is included.
How soon can I get a walkthrough?
The free on-site walkthrough is usually scheduled within a week. You get a written coverage plan afterward, and you keep it whether or not you hire us. If something is happening now, call (805) 800-8163.
Tell us your town and we will confirm coverage.
Free walkthrough, written coverage plan, fixed price. Nothing is locked in until you have seen the plan and the number.
