List what matters
Start with entrances, a driveway, side passages, garages and any specific concerns. Decide whether each view needs an overview of activity or enough detail to recognise someone at a particular point.
Why one wide view is not always enough
A wide-angle camera can see more space but spreads its available detail across that view. A separate entrance camera may be more useful than trying to read faces from a broad garden overview.
Illustrative layouts
A simple property might use separate front and rear views. A more complex site may add a driveway or side-access camera. These are design examples, not recommended packages: obstructions, lighting and the layout determine what is suitable.
Test the gaps
Walk the routes someone could use to approach the property. Consider changes in level, parked vehicles and vegetation. A survey should identify blind spots and whether future expansion is worthwhile.
Make it specific to your property
Plan your home CCTV with Borders CCTV. We serve towns and rural properties across the Scottish Borders. A conversation about your site is the next step towards a useful specification.
