Security camera location
When hanging a security camera, location is an important factor. This is why we at Alarm System Expert recommend that you check the camera in a corner of the room in question room. This will minimize the blind spot (the part that the camera does not capture). Do not choose a corner that has a window or door underneath, as this way an intruder can easily disconnect the security camera from below. With this advice, you will give the security camera a location that will provide optimal results.
Security camera height
Did you know that the ideal height of a security camera is 1.65 when you want to film people? With this height, you have a good view of the perpetrator's face. But you have to be careful not to hang the camera within easy reach, because then the camera is an easy target for vandalism.
In addition, when installing a security camera, height is very important. A common mistake made is to place a security camera right above a valuable object. The result is a shot from above, making it difficult to identify the intruder. By Hikvision or Dahua camera a little lower, identifying the intruder is easier. Is it still impossible to install the security camera at this height? Then choose a spot further away from the object!
Security camera installation
Using the described tips, you can now place the security camera at the right position. We recommend Install a camera at every outside door., because this is often the exit for an intruder. For best results, set the cameras on the inside and outside of the door. When you choose IP camera it is possible to film multiple doors or objects simultaneously. In addition, it is wise to take into account (sun) light when installing a security camera.
