The Best Security Camera Placement for Long Island Homes

More cameras do not always mean better coverage. The best systems capture clear, useful angles.

Priority areas

• Front door and walkway
• Driveway and vehicle area
• Side gates and basement entrances
• Backyard access points
• Garage and detached structures

Placement tips

Avoid placing cameras too high if you need face detail. Watch for glare, trees, soffits, and night vision reflection. Make sure cameras capture people approaching, not just the top of their heads.

A camera placement review can often improve a system without adding many new devices.
