Installing a camera in your garage makes it easier for you to monitor your cars, motorbikes, and bicycles. You can place it in the outside part of the garage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Front doors<\/strong>: Most burglars also use the front door to access your home. A surveillance camera will help you to record video footage of your <a href=\"https:\/\/homesguide.co.uk\/how-to-paint-a-front-door-without-removing-it\/\">front door<\/a>. Since most online eCommerce platforms deliver products at the footstep of your door, most thieves might take advantage of that and steal your items. With a security camera, you can easily track down thieves who stole your items. You can also use a camera on your smart lock.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Backyard<\/strong>: Well, your backyard is another entry point that burglars can use to get into your home. Some might climb through a fence. You can install a camera for monitoring any activities that happen in your backyard. Place it on an elevated spot where burglars can&#8217;t reach easily. Outdoor security cameras should be at<strong> least nine feet<\/strong> from the ground.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The main hallway<\/strong>: Placing a camera in your main hallway makes it easier for you to monitor movements in your home. Once burglars get into your home, they might pass through the hallway while going to other rooms. With a camera in your hallway, you can easily <a href=\"https:\/\/homesguide.co.uk\/how-does-wireless-cctv-work\/\">capture video footages<\/a> of everything that happens in your hallway.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Driveway<\/strong>: Well, you can install wireless security cameras in your driveway to improve outdoor security. Recording footages of your driveway ease you to track burglars that might pass your driveway.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Common rooms<\/strong>: Fixing security cameras in common rooms will be great to record video footages of different activities. Examples of such rooms include the living room, the study room, and the kitchen. Do not mount your camera close to a window. Light might interfere with the video footage. Also, install your cameras close to the ceiling in a spot where children cannot get to. Tilt it at a certain angle to get a wider view.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"General Tips on Where to Install Security Cameras\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-eLazoraioU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2>Step by Step Guide to Install Wireless CCTV<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Get the Tools That Might Be Needed in the Installation Process<\/h3>\n<p>Start by getting some of the tools that might be required in this installation. Examples of such tools include drills, pencils, and drill bits. Drill bits can help you drill holes of different sizes on your walls.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Make a Plan of the Locations That You Are Planning to Install the Security Cameras<\/h3>\n<p>Now before you start this whole process, you have to determine where you will place the CCTV cameras. It makes it easier for you to know how many cameras you need.<\/p>\n<p>Get a copy of your house plan, then mark the spots you want to place the cameras. If you don&#8217;t have a copy of your house plan, you can sketch a plan of your house and use it to determine where you will install your cameras. Some of the most common security camera placement spots include porches, off-street windows, rooms, and driveways.<\/p>\n<p>If you plan to place cameras outside your house, choose nice spots that are free from harsh weather conditions. Also, install the cameras at <strong>least 10 feet<\/strong> from the ground. While outdoor cameras are designed to be very durable, choosing a nice spot can increase the lifespan of such cameras.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulscaffLFC\/status\/1377003335023259649<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Prep the Spots Where You Are Installing the Security Camera<\/h3>\n<p>Most home security cameras feature a drill template that guides you while drilling holes on your walls. Just place the template on the wall, sketch the shape of the mounting plates and the position of the holes.<\/p>\n<p>If your security cameras don&#8217;t have a drilling template, you can place the mounting plate of the camera on the wall, then <strong>sketch its shape<\/strong> and the position of the holes. It guides you as you are drilling holes.<\/p>\n<p>After that, use a drill to make holes in the wall. Place wall anchors on the holes, then use a hammer to drive the wall anchors into the holes.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Install the Surveillance Cameras on an Indoor\/Outdoor Wall<\/h3>\n<p>If your camera comes with an antenna that is not attached to the body, you have to attach it to the body of the camera before installing your security cameras.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CBG4GnkD0Lv\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"13\">\n<div style=\"padding: 16px;\">\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 19% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-top: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\">Lihat postingan ini di Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: auto;\">\n<div style=\"width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CBG4GnkD0Lv\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sebuah kiriman dibagikan oleh Richard (@richbiscuit85)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Place the mounting plate in the mark that you had sketched earlier on.

Repeat the same procedure on the other cameras, then tilt the camera at a certain angle to <strong>get perfect footages<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>While some wireless cameras come with power cables, some are powered by a battery. If your wireless CCTV camera has a power cord, you have to place it close to a power source.<\/p>\n<p>Once you mount a camera on a wall, run the wire along the wall and connect it to the power source.

Just unfasten the screws on the NVR box, and remove the casing that covers it. Connect the hard disk to the motherboard using some of the cables that are found on the motherboard. Place the hard disk on the NVR box. After that, align it to the holes that are found on the lower casing of the NVR. Fasten screw into those holes to mount the hard disk to the NVR box.<\/p>\n<p>Return the upper casing to its initial position, then fasten it to the NVR box with screws.<\/p>\n<h2>Power the NVR Box<\/h2>\n<p>Connect the power supply cable to the NVR box. After that, connect it to a monitor using an HDMI cable. If you are going to use the HDMI cable, you don&#8217;t have to use the VGA port to connect the box to the monitor. Then, put the power on. The NVR box will display a user interface. If your hard disk had some information, you have to format it before connecting the receiver to the cameras. While NVR boxes have <strong>different user interfaces<\/strong>, they have different settings that allow you to format the disk.<\/p>\n<p>Once you format the disk, the video footages will be displayed on the monitor on your screen.
