CCTV:
The exact price is going to vary based on what your needs are. A basic 4 camera system similar to the one pictured is going to be around $1089 for the equipment, and for most standard resiential installs I charge a flate rate of $250 per device which covers the conduit work and cable as well as labour. That give a total price of around $2339 for 4x 6mp cameras, installed. The hard drive included will give around a month storage time, after which it overwrites the oldes footage.
This can change a lot depending if you want colour night vision, higher mp cameras, adjustable zoom cameras, PTZ cameras, longer storage times etc, but $2339 for a basic 4 camera setup gives you some idea.

Alarm Systems:
Shown is a bare, basic system. It has a control hub, 1 motion detector, 1 reed switch and a remote fob. This may be enough for a small 1 bedroom unit, but most people will be looking for several of each sensor, some kind of a siren and maybe a keypad.
For a wireless system, lets say 2 motion detectors (lounge room and hallway), 2 reed switches (front and back doors), a keypad and an outside siren.
This is a reasonable setup for most houses, allows you to arm and disarm from the keypad, the remote fob, a swipe tag on the keypad (3 tags included) or with internet access, through an app on your phone. If you don't have internet, a 4g sim card can be installed into the control hub as well.
Fully installed price $1880
