How CCTV is planned

Start with the views you need, the power at each one, and where the recorder will live. Then count the cameras. Buying a four-camera kit before those three things are known usually means the kit does not fit the property.

The order we use

Gate, driveway, doors, stables, fuel, the side that nobody sees from the house. Power at each. A recorder that is not sitting on a floor. Then hardware.

Questions

Can I reuse cameras I already own?
If they are compatible with a recorder we can support. Mixing leftover consumer cameras with a new recorder is often more grief than it is worth.
