Coverage & Placement
  • Entry faces at human height for clear IDs.
  • Driveways and approaches with proper angles to avoid headlight wash.
  • Perimeter views tuned for motion in the right plane, not distant trees or sky.
  • Hardware choices sized to the space: dome, bullet, turret, PTZ where it makes sense.
Recording & Retrieval
  • NVR or hybrid recorders with labeled channels and time sync.
  • Storage sized for your retention goals; simple MP4 clip export.
  • Local‑first viewing; remote access where supported and appropriate.
  • Clear hand‑off: admin login and a quick reference sheet.
Wiring & Power
  • PoE where practical; 12V where it fits better.
  • Exterior‑rated cabling, drip loops, strain relief, and tidy routing.
  • Labeling at both ends for future serviceability.
  • UPS / surge options by site conditions.
Typical Placements (Guidelines)
Location Angle & Height Why it works
Front door / entry 5.5–7 ft, slight downward tilt Captures faces at the threshold; avoids hat brim and backlight issues.
Driveway 10–12 ft off grade, oblique view Readable details on approach without headlight bloom in the lens.
Back door / deck 7–9 ft, corner mount Entry coverage and yard overview with one camera.
Garage / overhead Inside: lintel mount; Outside: soffit Verifies openings and captures vehicles entering/exiting.
Yard / perimeter Fence line, level to target plane Motion detection that tracks humans, not distant trees or sky.
Walkways Eye‑line, slightly offset Consistent faces as people move toward the door.
Guidelines shift with site lighting, snow reflection, and architectural features — we adapt placement on site.
