Things to Consider When You Build Your Own Security Camera System

To build a home security monitoring system, you need to start with the actual situation of your family. The following are some general reference points.

  • How many cameras do you need?

Before buying a camera, you should do a survey of your home to find the areas that need to be monitored. For example, you want to install a doorbell video camera on the entrance door to remind visitors, install a PTZ security camera in the yard to detect the real-time situation of the yard or put a surveillance camera at home to understand the real-time situation of the house.

  • Do you need indoor or outdoor cameras?

Consider how many indoor and outdoor cameras you need. Indoor cameras are mainly used in indoor environments, are cheaper, and have a choice of wired and wireless connections. Outdoor cameras need to have good waterproof performance and be able to resist the changeable outdoor weather.

  • Do you want a wireless camera?

Wireless security cameras are less invasive to your home than wired cameras, so they are set up easier and faster. No drilling through walls or ceilings is required. Wireless cameras also are more flexible than wired systems because they aren't as tied down by wires. The cameras can easily be rearranged. You can easily install the wireless camera by yourself.

You need to consider how the recorded video is stored. At present, cloud storage and memory card storage are more common. Cloud storage is a package provided by the camera brand. You can choose a different package type according to your needs, just subscribe to the service. When the memory of the cloud storage is full, it will automatically overwrite the previous video.
The memory card is generally an SD card with a suitable capacity purchased by oneself. Generally, a camera needs one. After the memory card is full, it needs to be deleted manually.

1. Choose a location for the camera:

Consider placing the camera in a strategic location, such as near a door or window, to ensure that it captures the desired area.

2. Install the camera:

Follow the manufacturer's instructions to install the camera, which may involve mounting the camera on a wall or ceiling and running power and data cables to the camera.

3. Connect the camera to your network:

Most security cameras connect to your home Wi-Fi network to allow you to view the camera feed remotely. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to connect the camera to your network.

4. Configure the camera's settings:

Use the camera's app or web interface to configure settings such as the camera's resolution, frame rate, and motion detection settings.

5. Test the camera:

Once the camera is set up, test it to ensure that it is working properly and that the image quality is satisfactory.

6. Secure the camera:

Make sure to secure the camera to prevent unauthorized access or tampering. This may involve password-protecting the camera's app or web interface, or physically securing the camera to a wall or ceiling.

I go on business trips a lot because of the nature of my job, and since I live alone, I often get worried about my house whenever I’m away for too long. I’m thankful you recommended that we install cameras to help with security monitoring, and to consider wireless ones since they’re easier to install and less invasive to our home since they won’t need drilling through walls or ceiling. I’ll keep this in mind while I look for a service provider to hire for our security system installation soon.
