Choosing the right CCTV kit doesn’t have to be complicated. The best system depends on your property size, layout, and security needs. Whether it’s a small home, a larger residential property, or a commercial space, there’s a CCTV kit designed to give you the coverage you need.

Quick Tips:

  • Small homes/units: 2–4 cameras (minimum 4 – 6MP) cover entrances and driveways.
  • Medium homes: 4–6 cameras (6MP–8MP) for wider frontages and extra coverage.
  • Large homes & commercial: 6–12+ cameras (8MP/4K – 12MP Motorised) for complete protection.

Higher megapixels mean sharper images, but more isn’t always necessary. A 6MP–8MP kit can be perfect for small homes, while 8MP (4K) kits and above deliver professional-grade detail for larger properties or commercial sites. The right choice depends on your budget, the detail you require, and the size of the area you need to monitor.

Quick Tips:

  • Small homes & units: minimum 4MP – 6MP is usually enough for basic entry coverage.
  • Medium homes: 6MP and above offers sharper detail for wider frontages and multiple entry points.
  • Large homes & commercial: 8MP (4K) and above delivers crystal-clear images for maximum security.
