HOUSTON - Sept. 23, 2020 - Main Doorways
The most obvious place for a camera is your front door. The highest number of break-ins happen when thieves come right through the front entrance. You'll want to place this camera high enough to be out of reach in case the perpetrator tries to knock it out. Keeping it in view could be an effective deterrent.
Driveway/Garage
Although your house itself might not be the easiest of your prized possessions for a burglar to run away with, your car might be. Think of all the other great things you keep in your garage that thieves might like: expensive tools, lawnmower, bikes, etc. Your garage is also an easy in/easy out entry point. A camera on your driveway will give you an idea of who is coming and going.
Pool
A camera by the pool might give you peace of mind for another reason. Though you might not find too many burglars stopping for a late-night swim, there are other negative actions you may need to monitor. Sadly, it isn't that uncommon in this country for other community members, teens and otherwise, to help themselves to a dip in your oasis. Because these offenders are not always sober or smart, you may be wise to have footage available in case an accident happens.
Off-Street Windows
Many thieves bank on your front and back doors being locked, so they try to find a less obvious, possibly forgotten window to sneak in. That means you'll want protection on the sides of your house if those areas are hidden well from traffic. Thieves know than even if you've locked your windows, hidden areas invite the use of force or breakage.
Basement
Don't forget the downstairs! If your basement has doors or a window leading to the outside, an intruder might consider this out-of-the-way entry point, even if it means squeezing through a tiny opening. The basement is actually the 5th most common way for burglars to enter a home.
