Gigaset surveillance cameras for more security in your home
Everything in sight at all times
See it all! The time when CCTV was only used by banks, authorities and train stations is thankfully in the past. Now there are surveillance cameras everywhere thanks to technological advancements, affordable prices and user-friendliness. And as the cameras can be made to meet individual needs, you never lose sight of anything. That is a good feeling.

Number crunching: useful information about break-ins
No one wants to come home to find the windows or doors open and the interior of the house ravaged. Break-ins are horrible and not just from a material perspective. This is one reason why more and more private households are investing in security. But is it worth purchasing cameras? It might help to look at the statistics:
- In Germany, a burglar breaks into a house or flat every three minutes.1
- In 2019, 87,145 break-ins at flats and houses were reported in Germany.2 The numbers are falling and increased security measures are one factor.
- Just 17.4 per cent of cases reported to the police were solved.3 Offenders are much easier to convict with video recordings.
- On average, a break-in causes €2,850 of damage.4
- Almost half of all attempted break-ins are aborted without success.5 Thieves often retreat from highly secure properties in particular.

Integration and installation: set up your Gigaset cameras
Play it safe with surveillance cameras from Gigaset. Even installation is sure to go without a hitch as it takes only a few steps to mount the cameras and set them up for use. First of all, decide where you would like to install your surveillance cameras. Select a location and make sure that a power supply is available. The Gigaset smart camera is small and inconspicuous so you can mount it on the wall or position it anywhere in your home with the supplied base.
It is best to mount the Gigaset outdoor camera at a height of at least 2.5 metres on one of the walls of your home with a view of your property. Check whether a power supply is nearby and whether the Wi-Fi signal is strong enough to reach this point. To install the outdoor camera, drill a hole in the wall and feed the power cable through it into your house. You can use the free Gigaset elements app to configure all other settings and even connect the camera to other Gigaset Smart Home products.
Be on the safe side: the legal requirements
Surveillance cameras have become part of our everyday lives; they can be used for many different purposes and provide security. The legal regulations in your country must also be taken into consideration when you install the camera. For instance, in Germany you are not allowed to film your neighbours or their property. You are also not allowed to point cameras at passing cars. As Gigaset cameras have excellent motion sensors, please point them at areas where there is less movement. Additionally, in order to protect privacy rights, it is advisable to give notice of the surveillance – perhaps with stickers or signs. This way, you are on the safe side.
