Every home
security system will have closed-circuit cameras as part of the
package. In recent times, security camera footage has proven
essential in identifying criminal suspects and even as material for
video compilation shows like World’s Wildest Police Videos.
Discretion, however, is often the better part of valor and when
cameras are involved, placement is key to making the most of your
investment.
The Other
Side
You need to
study your property with a bonded consultant from security companies
in San Diego and most of the time, you must think like a potential
intruder. Discreetly note down locations that even novice burglars
would exploit to gain entry, such as doors with no exterior lighting
and places not directly visible from the street.
Candid
Camera… Not Quite
According to
some security specialists, burglars often assume the presence of
cameras at the front door and try hiding their faces to prevent being
caught on tape. However, you can compensate for that by adding extra
cameras at unconventional locations such as a plant box with direct
line-of-sight to the door. The insides of the house can seriously
challenge the suspects with covering their identities especially if a
miniature camera was placed, say, inside a false smoke alarm box or
light switch.
A camera
hidden inside the most unexpected places can provide the key evidence
in a crime. You can be sure the authorities, not to mention your
loved ones, will be thankful for it.
