FEATURED CASE / CANADIAN HOUSE
Home security for a typical Canadian house.
This supplied project illustrates a typical security layout for a Canadian house with a driveway, side access and a backyard. Four outdoor camera views bring the front entrance, driveway, side passage and rear deck together on one TV.
FOUR COVERAGE POINTS
Coverage around a Canadian home.
For a house with a front entrance, driveway, side passage and backyard, these four views offer a practical starting point. Match camera positions to your property’s layout and the routes you use.
Driveway
See the parking area and vehicle positions from the house.
Side passage
Bring the narrow access route between properties into view.
Backyard & deck
Include the rear outdoor space and the approach to the back door.
One display. A coordinated setup.
For a finished Canadian house, discuss compatible cameras, a local NVR and hard-disk recording, plus TV and supported phone viewing. Wireless data connections can reduce new cable routes in a finished house; camera power, mounting and signal coverage still need a site plan.
WIRELESS CCTV + NVR + HARD DISKProfessional recording.
Professional recording.
Convenient viewing.
Choose a coordinated camera and recorder system with the features your home needs.
Watch on your TV
A compatible NVR connects to a TV or monitor through its supported video output, such as HDMI. See multiple camera views together and review recorded footage locally.
Check on your phone
Use the supported app for live viewing and playback. Remote viewing requires internet connectivity and a properly configured, secure account.
Record on a hard disk
An NVR brings compatible cameras into one local recording system. Hard-disk capacity, recording schedules and retention are sized around camera count and your needs.
Keep your finished
interior in mind.
Wireless video connections reduce the need to run long camera-data cables through finished rooms. For many Canadian houses, this can mean fewer new cable routes and less disturbance to existing decoration.
Camera power and mounting still need a plan. Powered wireless cameras need a suitable supply; walls, distance and interference affect the connection. We review placement, signal coverage and any drilling or power work before proposing an installation.
CHOOSE AROUND YOUR HOUSE
Wireless first. Wired where it fits.
Start with wireless CCTV.
A practical option when running new network cables through the house would be disruptive. Review camera power and wireless coverage alongside a compatible NVR and hard disk.
ASK ABOUT WIRELESS CCTVConsider cabled PoE CCTV.
If Ethernet was preinstalled during construction, a compatible wired PoE system may use those cable runs for camera data and power. We check cable condition, endpoints and recorder compatibility before recommending a setup.

Plan the complete setup.
Confirm equipment compatibility and installation requirements for your house.
- 01Entrances, driveway, side access and rear coverage
- 02Power, wireless signal, TV connection and phone access
- 03NVR, hard disk, retention and outdoor temperature ratings
Viewing, recording and app features depend on the selected cameras and recorder. Wireless reduces data cabling; it does not remove all power, mounting or network connections.
