Type of Cameras
Security cameras are just one option when it comes to a security system, but they are usually the first thing that people think of. It is true that many people want and need surveillance of some kind for their home or business.Â
Not too long ago home security cameras were few and far between, but now almost everyone has some form of video even if it is just their doorbell. Businesses have unfortunately had to step up the security game as well due to high levels of theft and dishonesty throughout the nation.Â
When considering the addition of security cameras it is important to consider which type of camera will best meet the needs of your business.Â
The following are a few things to consider before selecting a security camera:
- Features
- Lighting
- Wiring
- Placement
- Budget
Features of the camera include things like noise reduction, night vision and zoom.Â
Lighting is thinking about things like needing night vision or adjustment for day and nighttime conditions.Â
The wiring that is available likely cannot be changed, so that could limit a few or your possible camera selections.Â
Placement is key when choosing a camera because you need to know if you can have a stationary camera or if it should be a panoramic type.Â
Budget cannot be forgotten either. Consider your price point and make a list of the most important to the least important features to have.Â
2. Access Control Systems
An access control system is best known as keyless entry. This type of security grants access to only allowed individuals at certain times and can track who is coming and going when. It also allows for remote lock and unlock for when you are away.Â

- Keyless Entry
- Access Records
