I had one more camera and no good place to put it. I want to cover the side door, but the neighbors would be staring back at a camera placed at the front of the house looking toward the backyard.
I would also have a problem getting the wiring done on this side of the garage since there are cabinets on the inside. Furthermore, I would like the option of putting cameras at the other corner looking back this way, but there is no attic above that corner of the house and I’m not crawling around in the basement.
The one thing left that we wanted to cover was the third car that the kid’s park down the street. We have lots of little leaves and olives dropping onto the street right in front of our house, so it’s not the best place to leave a car. The driveway camera doesn’t cover the area down the street. Installing another camera off the garage looking back over the cars will be the easiest position, so that’s where it’s going. It will be installed just like the first camera was. Here’s the area inside the garage.
Things went pretty quickly with this installation.
I had to carve a curved gully in the block of wood like I did with the first camera and somehow managed to avoid getting a picture of it again. But I got everything to fit.
This view lets us watch cars all the way to the end of the block. With 4K resolution, it’s actually possible.
