As a building material, it naturally resists decay, warping and shrinking, and is easy to work with. Unlike composite decking, redwood is a renewable resource. Because it’s local, it not only underscores the beauty of California’s natural environment, its transportation creates less environmental impact than imported hardwoods such as Ipe from the tropics or even cedar from Canada.

Consider setting up a separate computer to store your CCTV video feeds. Although a common DIY home security system records video only when there is movement in the camera’s field of view, that footage needs to be stored in a computer that is kept on at all times.
