Why do you need so many number cameras to secure your entrance?

Let's spend 2 minutes understanding what “Less is More”.
In fact we can let you “One Eye See All"

The Challenge:
Avoiding Blind Spots in CCTV Installation

When it comes to securing your premises, one of the most common concerns is ensuring that every angle is covered. Many people believe that to avoid blind spots, they need to install multiple cameras in a single area, leading to an overcomplicated and expensive setup. This often results in unnecessary costs, cluttered installations, and still, the possibility of missing crucial details.

The Misconception:
More Cameras Equal Better Coverage

It's easy to think that more cameras mean better security. Customers often request multiple cameras in a single room or area, believing this will eliminate all blind spots. However, without the right planning and expertise, this approach can lead to overlapping views, inefficient use of resources, and higher costs without necessarily improving security.

The Solution:
Less is More with Professional CCTV Installation

With the guidance of an experienced CCTV installer, achieving comprehensive coverage without excessive equipment is not only possible but also highly efficient. Here's how we do it:

Choosing the Right Resolution:
- The key to covering a wide area with minimal cameras is selecting the correct resolution based on the distance and size of the object you wish to monitor. A higher resolution, like 8 Megapixels, ensures that even at a distance, the image remains sharp and detailed, allowing for clear identification of people or objects.
Strategic Placement for Optimal Angle:
- Positioning the camera correctly is crucial. By focusing on a primary objective (e.g., a main entrance) and allowing for a secondary objective as a bonus, you can cover essential areas effectively. Proper placement minimizes the need for multiple cameras, reducing costs and potential technical issues.
Focusing on Key Objectives:
- To maximize the effectiveness of each camera, it’s important to determine no more than two objectives per camera. This approach ensures that each camera is used to its full potential, capturing critical areas without redundancy.
Selecting the Right System:
- Whether you need a Network-Based, WiFi-Based, or Analog CCTV system, choosing the right one for your needs is crucial. Network-based systems, for instance, offer superior quality and flexibility, allowing for high-resolution cameras and efficient data management.

Case Study:
One Camera, Complete Coverage

In one of our recent projects, we installed a single 8 Megapixel Network Camera strategically positioned to cover the entire entrance of a building. The result? Crystal-clear footage with a wide-angle view that left no blind spots, all with just one camera. This installation not only provided comprehensive coverage but also highlighted the efficiency of having fewer cameras when positioned correctly.

Why "Less is More" in CCTV Installation

This case study proves that with the right expertise and equipment, less can indeed be more. One well-placed, high-resolution camera can provide the security coverage you need without the complexity and cost of multiple cameras. It’s not about how many eyes you have on a space, but about having the right eye in the right place.
