-
Inside home security cameras: Indoor cameras attach to a wall or reside on a shelf and capture the room's central area.
-
Outside home security camera: These cameras hang on the exterior of your house to provide a look of your yard and main doorways.
-
Doorbell cameras: These guard your front door and packages and allow for a two-way talk feature.
An ideal camera system discreetly deters crime
Many times it seems that security cameras directly oppose themselves. On the one side, you may want your security equipment to be easily seen to deter a break-in. On the other side, you don't want them to be an eyesore to your property. A poorly mounted camera, or one that’s too large the space, could possibly hinder your home's look.
Fortunately, there are a number of stylish cameras that can still serve as a deterrent. A professionally hung wireless security camera can easily hang under your gutters or reside on a desk without being noticeable -- unless you want it to. But, if you buy a camera that comes with a light or LED ring when active, it will stand out to creeps, scaring them away.
