Dummy Cameras & Fake Cameras
Dummy Cameras are a great way to deter crime and misconduct without the expenses of real cameras. These fake security cameras are non-functioning cameras that look just like real security cameras. You can't catch a criminal with a dummy camera alone but their presence causes everyone to think twice about their conduct. In fact they have been proven to be very effective in deterring crime and misconduct with employees and customers. They can be used by themselves or consider using them in addition to real cameras - this keeps everyone guessing which cameras are real. In order for your fake camera to be as effective as possible, you'll need to know what the real ones look like. • LED Light - Make sure there is a light on the outside of the camera that people can see, either blinking or constant. Some think that a light that is constant is more realistic than a blinking light. 
• Warning Signs - The signs should should say something like; Warning, Security Cameras in Use or Surveillance Cameras on Premise, etc. They should be placed on entry doors or on the walls or some place where they'll be noticed. The signs will help bring attention to the cameras. There are some obvious and very cheap looking fake cameras out there that you'll want to avoid. Please take some time and make sure you are getting a quality fake camera with the features listed above, the price is still a bargain over the real thing and you will be glad you did. |
