How to Install a Night-Vision Security Camera

If you have decided that a night-vision security camera will suit your needs, follow these instructions for installation.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Decide what room you will be installing the camera and pick an angle from which the camera can operate unobstructed.
   
   
2. Decide how high off the floor you want the camera. Stand on a ladder and look over the room. From what height do you get the most coverage including the floor?
   
   
3. Hold the mounting bracket that came with the camera in place with one hand and use a pencil to mark the screw holes with the other hand.
   
   
   
   
4. Determine if the screw holes will be in a stud. Use a stud finder from a home improvement store if necessary.
   
   
   
   
5. If you will not be inserting the screws into a stud, you will need a drywall anchor bolt. Use a drill bit that is slightly smaller that the screw you will use to mount the bracket.
6. Predrill a hole into the stud or insert the drywall anchor bolt into the drywall.
   
   
7. Hold the mounting bracket in place and insert the screws into the predrilled holes or the drywall anchor bolt
   
   
   
   
8. Place the camera onto the mounting bracket and plug in the device.
   
   
9. Sync the camera to the base station and activate night vision. Check the images to make sure you have the coverage you require.
