How should you mount a surveillance camera?
In order to create the greatest possible preventive effect, the cameras should be placed as conspicuously as possible. Criminals think twice before breaking into your home.
It is best to focus on entrances and exits as well as low windows, back doors, and garages. At the main entrance, you should not necessarily point your camera at the door but, if available, rather at the driveway or the front garden (Source: Bascom).
