Which areas should be covered by a surveillance camera?

Installing surveillance cameras in private or commercial premises is a crucial step to increase security and detect potential threats early. But which areas should be covered by a surveillance camera to ensure maximum efficiency?

1. Inputs and outputs
   One of the most important areas that should be covered by a security camera is the entrance and exit areas of a building. This includes front doors, back doors, garages and any side entrances. Monitoring these areas ensures that every person entering or leaving the building is recorded.

2. Main traffic routes in the interior
   Inside a building, corridors, stairwells and other high-traffic areas should be monitored. These cameras make it possible to track movements inside the building and ensure that unauthorized persons cannot enter the building unnoticed.

3. Valuable items
   Rooms or areas where valuable items are kept should be particularly secured. These could be storage rooms, safes or even certain areas of a house where electronic devices or expensive furniture are located.

4. Outdoor areas and driveways
   In addition to indoor spaces, outdoor areas such as gardens, driveways, parking lots and other open spaces should also be monitored. These areas often provide the first signal of unusual activity and can prevent break-ins or vandalism.

5. Avoid blind spots
   When placing cameras, it is important to minimize so-called "blind spots" - areas that the camera cannot capture. Pan and tilt cameras that have a wide detection range help with this.
