About CCTV Installation
Recorder Type Selection
Choose between NVR and DVR based on your camera type. IP cameras need NVRs, while analog systems require DVRs. Mixing them creates compatibility issues. Check the recorder’s channel count. If you plan to expand later, buy a unit with extra empty ports. This avoids replacing the entire central brain of your security system later.
Warranty and Support
Ask for written warranties on parts and labor. Standard part warranties last 1 to 2 years. Labor warranties vary by provider. Keep all paperwork. Ask for the support phone number. Test their responsiveness during the quote phase. If they are slow now, they will be slow later. Ensure they have local techs for quick visits.
Cable Type Matters
Demand CAT6 Ethernet cables for new installs. Older systems use coaxial cables. Coaxial has a 100-meter limit. CAT6 goes up to 100 meters before signal drops. Ask if they will run cables inside walls or outside. Outdoor cables need UV protection. Sunlight degrades unprotected plastic. Check the cable jacket thickness for weather resistance.
Mobile App Compatibility
Confirm the system works with both iOS and Android devices. Some proprietary apps suffer from poor update support. Check if login requires specific regional servers. Latency affects live view speed. Ask about multi-user access limits. You may need separate accounts for family members. Ensure cloud storage options align with your privacy preferences before committing to the provider.
Cable Distance Limits
Standard Ethernet cables max out around 100 meters before signal drops. Longer runs require active extenders or fiber optics. Ask your installer if your property exceeds this limit. Excess length causes intermittent connection losses and frame drops during live viewing. Request a site survey to measure exact distances from the recorder to each planned camera location first.
Mounting Heights and Angles
Mount cameras 2.5 to 3 meters high. This prevents tampering. Aim them slightly downward. Angles too high show only back of heads. Angles too low show too much ground. Ask the installer to point the lens at the target area. Avoid pointing directly at bright lights. Glare ruins the image sensor. Adjust angles during the final walkthrough.
Check Resolution Specs
Ask for minimum 2 megapixels per camera. Lower resolution blurs faces at distance. Higher resolution creates larger file sizes. Too many cameras on a slow network lag. Verify if the system supports 4K. If not, 1080p is standard for homes. Match the resolution to your storage capacity. Do not buy high resolution if your hard drive is too small.
Motion Detection Sensitivity
High sensitivity causes false alarms from shadows or insects. Low sensitivity misses real intruders. Ask how zones are configured. You should be able to exclude areas like swaying tree branches. Adjust sensitivity per camera. This reduces notification fatigue. Test the system after setup to ensure alerts match actual movement patterns rather than ambient environmental changes.
Camera Resolution and Lens Choice
Ask for minimum 2 MP resolution for clear facial recognition. Lower resolutions blur details at night. Inquire about lens focal length. Wide-angle lenses suit doorways, while narrow lenses monitor long driveways. Wrong lenses capture too much background noise. Verify each camera model before finalizing the quote to ensure adequate detail capture.
Remote Access Setup
Test live viewing from your phone before payment. Ask which app they recommend. Verify if the manufacturer charges monthly fees. Some brands require subscriptions for cloud storage. Local storage is free but at risk during theft. Ensure the app shows clear images. Lag over 2 seconds makes monitoring useless. Check the app interface for ease of use.
