mrmarley 0 Posted November 27, 2015 Hi All, I've just found this forum, and it seems to be a wealth of information. We're in the process of building, and we are looking to install CCTV cameras, along with an alarm system. I figure 6 cameras should give me adequate coverage, however any advice would be appreciated. I'm looking at using HIK dome cameras from aliexpress, along with a NVR. Our basic house layout is this (no cameras needed inside) http://tinypic.com/m/j8jnd2/4 (Sorry, can't figure out how to make a URL clickable) Do you think i will be able to achieve what I need with the 6 cameras? The front door (middle green line at bottom) is in an alcove, so this could be a blind spot, although it will be covered by the alarm system. Do you think camera C3 would be better facing from front to back instead? I'm a litte concerned about it not seeing the back windows right near it in it's current location. I would appreciate any advice that you can give me. Thanks. PS. If it changes your advice, I'm in Australia. Temps range from -5c to +45c, so I'm not sure if that will effect the dome cameras. NVR will be in a temp controlled environment, so shouldn't be any issues there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
