Before we discuss outdoor wireless security cameras there are a few essentials that we need to be aware of. Many burglaries are opportunistic crimes by taking a few simple steps you can reduce your chances of being robbed by making your house look as difficult as possible to break into.
Make sure that there is nothing of any value visible from the windows when you go out. For example don't leave your wallet or MP3 player on the table even if you're only quickly visiting the neighbours. Always lock your doors and close and lock windows even if you think you'll only be away for five minutes. Mostly due to film and television it's very easy to think that burglaries happen at night but most of them occur in the daytime. If you think about it logically the daytime is where most people are at work, at night most people are back home. Often when I go I also leave the radio on, you always want to make it look as if the house is occupied whether your work or going on holiday for two weeks. Finally another important thing to remember is to make sure that your tools and ladders are locked away securely in a shed or garage and can't be used against you.

Once we've taken care of the basics we can start thinking about more elaborate forms of protection. Different studies have shown that the burglar alarm will reduce your chances of being broken into. Alarms can be either standalone or wired up to a centralised monitoring system, usually the alarm companies own servers. Standalone alarms were just sound a siren inside and outside the house without notifying any other authorities. Alarms can be triggered in several ways. The first is to have wired connections going to doors and windows which time the alarm when the connection is broken this can be either broken by forcing the window open or by breaking the glass. The second went along can be triggered is when a motion sensor detects movement in the house typically hallways, bedrooms and living areas etc covered with motion sensors. As with all things cost is an issue is very expensive to buy up every window and door, and to put motion sensors guarding every room. Many alarms can also be zoned. So for example you might turn the alarm on downstairs what you go to bed but leave it off upstairs in case he needs to move around at night.
The next level up after alarms is to use surveillance cameras. These cameras, also known as security cameras, transmit a signal either wirelessly or over a cable act will monitor somewhere in the house where you can see who or what is approaching. Naturally you will want to spend all day watching this monitor but you can record the picture, in case you need to review it later or use special motion sensing software to sound a warning when someone is moving within the field of vision of the camera. Of course the real benefit of security cameras is that they act as a deterrent and by making them clearly visible on and around your home it makes you much less likely to be targeted. To this end outdoor wireless security cameras are very good because they can be positioned away from the house attached to gates where they are very clearly visible. Of course this is very expensive book fake security cameras could be an option for you as long as they're good enough to pass for the real thing.
