Nowadays, the installation of surveillance cameras for homes or shops is something that many people really need. After all, everyone pays more and more attention to safety. However, when it comes to installation, it is not as easy as finding someone to nail a camera. There are many tricks and small details to pay attention to. If any step is not done well, the money will be spent in vain and will not play the role it should have. It is so annoying that it is very troublesome.
First of all, we have to understand what the basic concept of installation is. Simply put, it is a process of using appropriate tools and wires to fix the camera in a specific position, then connect the lines and debug the equipment so that it can shoot, store and transmit images normally. This process doesn't sound complicated, but in fact, every link must be taken seriously from the early on-site inspection to the subsequent equipment debugging and cannot be careless.

Next, let’s disassemble the key content modules during the installation process. These are all practical tips:
1. It is particularly important to determine the installation location. Considering whether the monitoring range is large enough, whether the key areas can be fully covered. Places such as doors and windows must be monitored. Also, you must avoid being directly exposed to the sun or being directly exposed to rain, otherwise the service life of the camera will have a great impact. Moreover, the installation location cannot affect other people's privacy, which must be paid attention to, otherwise unnecessary troubles may occur.
2. It is also very important to choose the right camera type. There are many types of cameras on the market, including analog, digital, network high-definition and other types. If it is used in the home, it is generally enough to choose a 1080P or 2-megapixel-plus webcam. The price is not too high and the effect is not bad. If it is used in a shop, it may require higher pixels, such as those above 4-megapixels. You must also consider whether the night vision function of the camera is good and whether it can perform motion detection. These functions are quite practical.
3. The wiring is also a big project. If you follow the open line, it will not look beautiful and easily be destroyed by others; if you follow the hidden line, it will be. The effect is good, but the construction is much more difficult, and it requires holes on the wall. Now there is also a wireless camera. Although it is easier to install and does not use so many wires, it is greatly affected by network signals. If the signal is not good, it will easily stumble or cannot be connected.
Then, let’s talk about the pit avoidance guide when choosing the installation team. These are traps that many people are prone to step on. You have to remember them carefully:
1. Check whether this installation team has formal qualification certificates and whether their company has a business license and other legal procedures. This is the most basic guarantee. Who can believe them without these things?
2. Ask them if they have done similar installation cases, which are examples that have been installed in other people's homes or other shops before. It is best to see the installation effect on site and the quality of the captured images.
3. You have to ask the price clearly in advance, which service items are included. Don’t wait until the installation is completed before some messy extra charges will appear. At that time, it will be unclear.
Finally, we will add some details through several Q&A forms:
What I asked is how long it takes to install an ordinary family? It depends on the number of cameras installed and whether the circuit is easy to follow. If two or three cameras are installed, the circuit is easy to follow, it can be done in two to three hours if it is faster. If the circuit is more complicated, the time may be longer, and it may be possible to be four or five hours or even longer.
Ask if wiring will cause serious damage to the decoration of the home? For this problem, professional installers will try to choose wiring methods that do not affect the decoration. If the home has been decorated, they may go to places such as ceilings or skirting boards, which can minimize damage.
Which brand of camera is better to choose? Commonly used brands like Hikvision and Dahua on the market are all brands with good reputation and relatively stable and reliable reputation. However, when choosing a specific model, you still have to consider and decide based on your actual needs and budget. I personally think that although the installation costs some money in the early stage, it is still a very worthwhile investment after it is installed. When installing, don’t just look for something unreliable.
