After a 2nd break in I'm looking at getting a video security system.. however indoors I have a large area to cover.. It's about 70-90 FT from the front to the back.. the cameras I will be using have IR illuminators but to help light up the area better what could I use to help with this huge area? Like what type of illuminator?

I got an idea about how big this area is.. about 7,308 sq ft

I will give this a shot, thanks

Nope not using cheap for main but the only cheap thing I will be getting is a cheap ebay dome one to cover up a mounting place. I'm hoping that the cameras will get that area good.. If I have any other questions I will ask but so far I think I understand.

Normal IR meaning 850nm? I plan on using 5 cameras in this area alone but I was just confused on how and where to place the illuminators.. because the ceiling is a drop kind it's white and the walls are brown. I mean should I get a cheap 48 LED kind or something larger?

They have a ADT system but disabled because of the amount of people that come in and out If the risk if getting one person the code then others have it.. I know it sounds crazy but that's how it is.. here is a shot of the area that needs to be covered but I wonder.. 5 IR illuminators?
