How To Install A Security Camera On A Wall Inside?

This step-by-step guide provides a step-by-step process for installing indoor cameras. First, determine the camera location and use the drill template provided in the camera kit to mark screw positions. Drill holes and insert wall plugs if necessary, then attach the camera mount using screws or adhesive pads. Position the camera and secure it in place.

Adhesive mounting strips are a common way to install a security camera without drilling. These double-sided strips are strong enough to hold up a small camera. To install a wired security camera, attach the camera mounts and run cables to the DVR using the supplied anchors and screws. Use hand tools to prevent stripping the mounting points.

When installing a camera, assess the installation site for environmental factors, choose the right type of cabling for outdoor use, understand local coverage zones, plan cameras to avoid intersections of field of view, focus on weak points, install corner shelves to hold cameras, and hardwire it into your home. Drill holes, run cables to each camera, and mount each camera.

When attaching a camera to a wall or ceiling, ensure the hooks are snug and secure. Align the camera’s mount and drill mounting points and a hole to run the cable through the wall if needed. The best surfaces for mounting security cameras without screws are smooth, flat, and clean surfaces such as glass, metal, and painted walls. Fill the hole with duct seal or silicone, and be aware that water can travel up a wire if it gets inside the outer casing.
