Off-street windows

Windows that are not facing onto a busy street or road may be attractive to crooks as there are no prying eyes
from the public. In addition to cameras, as an extra safety enforcement, never neglect your windows and keep
them closed and locked whenever you go out.
Garage
Some people may not think to monitor their garage, but this is often a common access route for burglars. Therefore,
whether your garage contains valuable equipment or not, it’s important to keep it safeguarded.

A camera facing the driveway or garage area is great for picking up signs of suspicious activity. Alternatively, you
may wish to place the camera inside the garage, pointing it at an angle where the light from the opening door can
light up the dark interior.

Backyard
Whether it’s a shed bursting with pricey gardening machinery, or a garden full of play equipment for the kids, often
our gardens house many expensive items that make them inviting to crooks. To keep this area safe and secure,
have a few smartly placed cameras dotted around, along with some security lights.
All these elements can act as great deterrents to lawbreakers, making them think twice about accessing your
garden.
Indoors
It is a common misconception that CCTV cameras are exclusively suited to the outdoors. Installing a camera on
the inside of your house, lens trained on the doors or windows, can record a criminal entering your home, offering
a full view of their face for easier identification.
The only disadvantage with indoor placement of cameras is that they are not as visually deterring and a criminal
has to first enter your home to notice them.
For more advice on the best locations for home security cameras, simply ask a security specialist who will be able
to offer some insight.
