Spec me a CCTV System

[Mcnumpty2323]

Some of the Reolink cameras have built in sirens. How good they are, I don’t know I’m afraid

Yeah mine has a built in siren
Can even set it off remotely
It's decently loud yes
But a dedicated alarm sirens probably louder
Since can fit a bigger speaker in it
And can have flashing lights etc

As always it all depends how much you want
To spend
Reolink stuff is decent for the cost definitely
But not really top of the range stuff
And as simon42 said
Physical security is even more important than cameras

I see that Reolink and Euify are recommended here for CCTV, do either of these integrate well with an intruder alarm with an external sounder? I'm looking to install both CCTV and intruder alarm whilst doing my house up.

Ajax is the best solution for both alarm and surveillance cameras in one ecosystem. Ajax also works with Dahua cameras.

Dahua have a new-ish alarm system called Airshield but it’s not as good as Ajax and doesn’t have as wide a range of sensors.
