For a house, the cameras that matter most watch the ways in: the main gate, the car porch, the front door and the street outside. Most homes need 4 to 8 cameras depending on size and floors, all viewable on your phone, including from abroad.
What the cameras should cover
- Main gate and boundary wall
- Car porch and driveway
- Front and back doors
- Street view outside the gate
- Roof access and stairs
- Servant quarter entrance
Recommended setup
- 2MP or 5MP cameras with colour night vision for the gate and street
- A 4 or 8 channel DVR or NVR, with room to add cameras later
- A UPS or inverter on the recorder and cameras, so recording continues during load-shedding
- The admin password handed to you, with the mobile app set up on the phones you choose
Questions from residential clients
How many cameras does a house need?
A 5 marla house is usually covered by 4 cameras; a 10 marla or 1 kanal house by 6 to 8, depending on floors and how many doors face outside. Our free security audit confirms the exact number.
Can I watch my house cameras from abroad?
Yes. With internet at the house, we set up the camera app on your phone so you can watch live and play back recordings from anywhere.
Does the system record during load-shedding?
Only if the recorder and cameras are on a UPS or inverter. We include the right backup in the quote if the house does not have one.
