Dummy cameras are an highly effective way to deter intruders
at a fraction of the price of normal surveillance systems. A dummy camera
however, should be chosen with care, as some of them are easily recognizable as
fakes. This is why many of the dummy cameras offered by
ASPuk use real camera
housings.
The use of
dummy cameras could save you hundreds or thousands
of pounds per year. Real security camera systems will deter intruders but can be
quite expensive. Purchasing inappropriate security equipment will waste your
time and money so it's critical that you develop a plan to deter intruders.
Dummy cameras should be part of this plan.

dummy cctv
camera
-
Maximize your dummy camera's deterrent - Use the right
camera for the right situation.
-
Learn when spending a little more now will save you a lot
later.
-
Overwhelm a shoplifter with the impression of being
watched.
The placement and type of
dummy cctv camera should be
considered carefully, due to the range of different types available for indoor
and outdoor use. for example, If you have high ceilings in your home or office
or want to install a camera outside you should consider a "bank" style camera or
an outdoor style
dummy cctv camera.
While being an effective deterrent, the main reason to
purchase dummy cctv cameras is to save money but sometimes it makes sense to
purchase a real camera or at least a real camera housing. If you ever plan on
using real security cameras then you should buy them upfront. You now have the
option of expanding your system once you can afford it.
Although a
dummy cctv camera is a low cost alternative to a
real camera, you should also consider using dummy camera equipment in
conjunction with other security measures. If you have a business, plug the real
camera into a TV and position the TV near the front of the premises. This will
increase the effect of being watched and improve the effectiveness of your
security system.
Whether for the home or office, with care and forethought you
can implement a
dummy cctv camera system that will squeeze every penny out of
your security budget.
Why choose a Dummy Security Camera?
Dummy security cameras look very real, there is no need to
store video recordings, installation is relatively easy and the equipment is
very low maintenance.
Common sense dictates that, it is better to have a dummy
security camera installed than no security precaution at all. An intruder may
think twice before entering or stealing merchandise from a premises which
appears to have surveillance equipment installed.

from. The example below is just one from a range of cameras we supply.
