Guidance on new CCTV system

Recommended Posts

I live in the UK and have a 5 bedroom, detached house with integral garage, a large rear garden with patio and a smaller front garden with parking area for 3 cars.

I am happy to install a system myself, but looking for guidance on positioning cameras and purchasing a good all-round brand i.e. good quality of camera, NVR and software.  My requirements are:

- IP system, POE, probably around 4 or 5 cameras (one on each side of the house + one for the porch).

- 8 channel NVR to allow for expansion

- Audio camera installed in porch.  This may need to be wifi as I don't think I could easily get wires to the porch

- Around £500, possibly higher for better quality cameras and software

- Notifications to Android mobile

- Cameras to give good quality images, ideally 4K, both day and night

I have a gigabyte wired network around the house with a large switch in the loft, so easy enough to connect the NVR to this to enable access through TV's or computer.

I don't want much I know :classic_biggrin:

Any advice would be very much welcome.
