Hi Guys! New to the forums here!
So, I'm planning a project with my best friend who works for a small private home audio/video company. He's very good with low voltage applications and home automation.
As always we have 100 different projects going on all the time. As I always help him with his side work. This time around hes going to be helping me with cameras.
I currently own two businesses. One is a 7000 Sq Ft. Sports Bar/Restaurant. Currently equipped with older analog cameras with a DVR. I want those gone and replaced with new POE Hikvisions. There is about 20 cameras around the whole bar including exterior patio and parking lot. My manager also asked me to consider adding a few other cameras for some blind spots around the bar that the cameras don't catch. One thing to consider is that the bar is more on the darker side. With the current set up at night time it is difficult to see.
My other place is about a 20,000 SQFT manufacturing facility and also my central office for all my work. I plan on putting up about 5 Hik bullets as well. 3 on the exterior of the building and 2 on the shop floor. I don't need much more on the shop floor. I don't want my employees to feel uncomfortable since they're pretty trustworthy with everything. Pretty well lit parking lot.
In the plan's is also adding 4 Hikvision bullets on the exterior of my home.
What I was thinking is having all these run off dedicated computers with Blueiris. I would also like to be able to remotely view these on my 55" TV in my office.
Unless you guys recommend doing it a different way.
I'm open to all options. Thanks! I appreciate the help and advice you guys have to offer!
