Security Help Guide is a free service that connects homeowners with local security companies and installers. We are not a security company, alarm dealer, or monitoring provider, and we do not sell, install, or monitor security systems.
Pick weather-rated cameras, mount them about nine feet up angled down to cover entrances and approaches, and keep them out of easy reach. Power them by nearby outlet, PoE, or battery and solar. Aim to avoid glare and blind spots, then confirm night vision and phone alerts. Higher, wired placements are steadier for continuous recording.
