Choosing the right security camera can be overwhelming with so many options available today. Whether you’re protecting your home, office, retail store, or commercial property, selecting the right security solution is critical.
At Kancam.ca, we help Canadians secure their properties with professional Security Camera Installation Services customized to their needs. Here’s your complete guide to choosing the perfect security camera for your home or business.
1. Understand Your Security Needs
Start by asking:
- What are you trying to monitor? (Entrance doors, driveways, parking lots, interior rooms?)
- How large is the area you want to cover?
- Do you need indoor, outdoor, or both types of cameras?
- Are you looking for general surveillance or detailed recording (e.g., facial recognition, license plate capture)?
At Kancam.ca, we offer site assessments to help determine the best coverage plan for your property.
2. Choose Between Wired and Wireless Cameras
Wired Cameras:
- Stable connection
- Ideal for permanent setups
- Great for large properties
Wireless Cameras:
- Easier installation
- More flexible placement
- Ideal for small to medium properties

3. Look for the Right Features
Modern security cameras come packed with features. Essential ones to consider include:
- HD Resolution (1080p or 4K): Clearer images and better details
- Night Vision: For 24/7 protection
- Motion Detection: Alerts you when movement is detected
- Wide-Angle Lens: Covers larger areas with fewer cameras
- Two-Way Audio: Communicate through the camera
- AI Features: Facial recognition, smart motion zones, vehicle detection
We recommend choosing cameras with these smart features to future-proof your system.
4. Weatherproof and Vandal-Resistant Options
For outdoor installations in Canada’s tough climate, it’s crucial to choose:
- Weatherproof (IP65/IP66 ratings) cameras
- Vandal-resistant (IK-rated) domes or housings
Our professional security installations ensure your system is durable and reliable year-round.
5. Storage and Remote Access
Decide how you want to store your footage:
- Local Storage: DVR/NVR systems for full control
- Cloud Storage: Convenient remote access
- Hybrid Systems: Combination of both
Remote viewing via smartphone apps or computers allows you to monitor your property anytime, anywhere — a service we fully integrate during installations.
6. Professional Installation Matters
Even the best security camera won’t perform well if installed incorrectly.
Professional installation ensures:
- Correct placement for maximum coverage
- Secure wiring
- System configuration for real-time alerts and monitoring
- Future expandability
