Who is it for?

CCTV design changes with the site

Camera count does not start with a fixed number. It starts with what you actually need to see and record.

Homes & villas

Entrances, façades, corridors and outdoor areas with simple mobile viewing.

Offices & retail

Reception, stock, sales areas and entrances with organized recording and playback.

Warehouses & workshops

Large areas, aisles, doors and loading zones with lenses chosen for the scene.

Multi-site projects

Consistent viewing, accounts and recording architecture around the available network.

CCTV camera types

Choose the camera type that fits your site

Each type has its own page explaining when it fits and what we check before installation.

IP cameras

Network cameras with high image quality for homes, businesses and warehouses.

Outdoor cameras

For entrances, fences, yards and parking areas, built to withstand sun and dust.

Indoor cameras

For entrances, offices, corridors and reception rooms inside the building.

Solar cameras

For sites where running power is difficult, such as farms and rest houses.

PTZ cameras

Control over direction and zoom for large yards and warehouses.

WiFi cameras

For homes and small offices where running cables is difficult.

Before the survey

Four details help us define the solution faster

Prepare what you have

Site type, approximate size and key entrances or critical areas.
Existing camera count if there is already a system.
Photos of the recorder, cabling or network where available.
Required recording retention and how you want to view the system.

We do not start with camera count

Count, resolution, lens and storage follow the purpose of each viewing point. More megapixels cannot fix a poor angle, and more cameras cannot replace proper coverage planning.

Scope

From camera angle to recording and remote viewing as one system

We treat CCTV as a complete system: useful image detail, recording that can be retrieved, stable networking where required and organized viewing accounts.

Survey and camera positions

Review entrances, corridors, outdoor areas, blind spots and the purpose of each camera before cabling begins.

Camera selection

Choose IP or HD, indoor or outdoor, fixed or PTZ, plus resolution, lens and night imaging based on the scene.

Cabling and installation

Run organized routes and install cameras with suitable height, angle and protection for the site conditions.

Recording and storage

Select the right NVR or DVR and calculate drives around camera count, resolution and required retention days.

Remote viewing

Configure supported apps, accounts, permissions and network settings for remote viewing or management.

Testing and handover

Verify live view, recording, playback, time and mobile viewing, then explain the basic operating steps.

Design decision

How do we choose the system instead of buying specifications?

Scene, distance, lighting, cabling and retention requirements matter more than megapixel count alone.

How a need becomes a technical decision
Need	What we review	Technical decision
Identify people at an entrance	Viewing distance, lighting and mounting height	Lens, angle and resolution selected for the entrance instead of a very wide but weak view.
Cover a wide area	Scene width and blind spots	Planned camera placement or a suitable camera type instead of relying on one position.
Record for several days	Camera count, resolution and recording profile	Storage is calculated before choosing drives and the recorder.
View from outside the site	Internet, network and user accounts	Supported remote access with appropriate accounts and permissions.

Common mistakes

Where do CCTV problems usually begin?

Choosing resolution only

Resolution cannot compensate for the wrong lens, poor angle or difficult lighting.

Unplanned storage

Footage can be overwritten earlier than expected if capacity is not calculated around the actual settings.

Shared passwords

Organized user accounts and permissions are better than one shared account for everyone.

No playback test

Live view is not enough; recording, search and playback should be verified before handover.

Deployment stages

Five stages from survey to handover

Survey

Identify critical areas, angles, distances, lighting and existing cabling.

Design

Select camera types, lenses, recorder, storage and required network architecture.

Installation

Complete cabling and install cameras, recorder and network equipment within project scope.

Configuration

Set time, recording, accounts and mobile viewing where supported.

Testing and handover

Test live view, recording, playback and remote access, then explain basic operation.

FAQ

Questions to answer before installing CCTV

Should I choose IP or HD security cameras?

The choice depends on site size, existing cabling, required image quality and future expansion. IP cameras are well suited to network integration and scalable systems, while HD systems can be practical when existing coaxial cabling can be reused.

How much recording storage do I need?

Storage depends on camera count, resolution, frame rate, compression and the number of retention days required. We calculate storage before selecting the recorder and drives.

Can I view the cameras on my phone when I am away?

Yes. Remote viewing can be configured through the supported mobile application when suitable internet connectivity is available, with accounts, passwords and network settings configured securely.

Do security cameras provide clear video at night?

Night performance depends on camera type, available lighting, distance and imaging technology such as infrared or color night imaging.

How do I determine the right number of cameras?

Camera count is determined after reviewing entrances, exits, corridors, sensitive areas, blind spots and lens distances to achieve practical coverage without unnecessary cameras.

Want a clear CCTV plan before buying equipment?

Send the site type, approximate size or photos of entrances and important areas, and we will identify what should be surveyed before selecting cameras, recording and storage.
