At home cameras aren't put up for the stock. They're put up to sleep easy when you go on holiday, to know if the parcel arrived, to see that your mother has got up all right, or to find out who's been hanging around the garage.

And there's an important difference from a business: here there's no technician and no building work. It has to be installed in an afternoon, work on its own and give you no trouble.

Where to put a camera in a house

The entrance

It's the first and the most useful. You see who's at the door, who leaves a parcel and who's loitering. If you want to be able to talk to whoever's at the door from your phone, the WiFi video doorbell is the direct option.

The garage

The most vulnerable point of almost any home and the one with the fewest cameras. It's usually isolated, in the dark and with access to the house. Here colour night vision matters more than anywhere: identifying a number plate or someone's clothing in black and white is almost impossible.

The garden or the back

Where people really get in, not through the front door. If there's no socket nearby —which is normal— solar cameras solve it: battery, panel and not a single cable.

Indoors

For pets, children or elderly relatives. Indoor ones rotate 360º, have two-way audio and are more for company than surveillance. Being able to say something to the dog from the office fixes nothing, but it's appreciated.

Solar, WiFi or wired

  • Solar — no socket and no cables. For the garden, fence, separate garage or second home. It needs a few hours of sun a day.
  • WiFi with a socket — the most common. If there's power nearby, it's the sensible option: it never runs out of battery.
  • Wired — only if you have a large house with weak WiFi in the area. It means building work.

Almost all our home customers end up on WiFi with a socket, plus the odd solar one where the power doesn't reach.

Your neighbours and the street: what you must NOT record

This is the part that causes the most disputes between neighbours and the most complaints. And hardly anyone tells you when they sell you the camera.

  • The public thoroughfare, no. Recording the street is the police's remit. You can only capture the bare minimum of your own entrance.
  • The neighbour's property, no. Not their garden, nor their pool, nor their window, nor their front door.
  • Communal areas of the building, not on your own. That's decided by the residents' meeting, not you.
  • Information sign — yes, in a home too if the camera can capture third parties.
  • Deletion within a month, unless it serves to prove an offence.

The practical trick: point the camera down and into your property. If the neighbour's window is in the frame, it has to be repositioned or you use the app's privacy masks. We help you set it up. More detail in the security camera guide.

Installing it yourself: what you really need

It arrives configured. You need: a drill, two wall plugs, a socket nearby (or sun, if it's solar) and your phone to pair it. A good half hour per camera, allowing for climbing the ladder.

You don't need a technician or an installer. And if you get stuck, we configure it remotely: we don't leave you with the box and a half-translated manual.

Frequently asked questions

Can I see the home camera and the business one from the same phone?

Yes, same app, switching site. It's one of the things most appreciated if you have a bar or shop.

Is there a monthly fee?

No. Many well-known brands charge you a subscription just to view your own recordings. Here you pay once and that's it.

What happens if the power or the WiFi goes down?

If the power goes, the camera switches off (solar ones don't, they have a battery). If the WiFi goes, it keeps recording to its card; what you lose is viewing it from outside until it's back.

Does the solar one work in winter?

Yes, the battery holds through cloudy days. What matters is that it gets a few hours of direct sun. On a north-facing wall in permanent shade, better one with a socket.

Will any memory card do?

No, and it's the most common mistake. A phone microSD degrades within months recording non-stop. You need a high-endurance one.

Can the indoor camera be switched off when I'm at home?

Yes, from the app, with one tap. Many people set them to activate only when they leave.

Can my neighbour force me to take it down?

If your camera records their property, yes they can complain, and rightly so. If it only records what's yours and is well positioned, no. Most disputes are resolved by moving the camera ten centimetres.

For several cameras you'll want an NVR recorder. For a single one, a high-endurance microSD card.
