This is genius thank you so much. We live in an apartment with no window near the door and no peephole so there is absolutely no way for me to check who's at my door. It makes me so anxious every time anyone knocks. I've been looking for a wireless, no screw mount option for a while now so these ideas are amazing.
Thanks for the last tip! The over the door mount and even using it as a side mount on a door is a great idea for apartments!! The ring peephole can't be used on my door because the peephole can't be removed so this is what I'll be doing Thank you!!
I used heavy duty clear outdoor waterproof grab adhesive on a small piece of wood which I painted in waterproof paint and then just screwed the mounting bracket to this! The wood was mounted inside the window frame to brick looks great 👍
Thank you! I bought a new house and did not want to drill in the soffits and siding to install my Wyze v3 cams. The clips are perfect. I love your videos keep up the good work.
Fantastic! Another video with great ideas! When I mounted my cameras I was hoping to do something temporary before making a commitment before drilling holes into my house. I put up blue tape on the locations a couple of days before drilling just to make sure the locations were right and to try to keep them from too much exposure. You would be very surprised how many times I would change a location even by a few inches. Those tips, especially the over door bracket was really smart! BTW- I found a Goldilocks nearby, ordering food tomorrow!
a lot of cleverness on display here - kudos! just hope some of those over the door brackets won't leave a mark from continued use. remember, when using tapes surface prep can be very important: cleaning surfaces with alcohol and then wiping dry, maybe roughing up a surface gently to help the tapes get a better bite, etc. there are some chewing gums that can make excellent adhesive for mounting brackets. you can use hot glue. granted there's a removal issue, but it's valid. lastly, just make the hole, but make it small. make fewer holes - just because the bracket has three doesn't mean you have to use them all. save/capture some brick dust when you drill the hole - you can fill the hole with caulk later and top it with some of the dust to hide it.
Great video. I also had the over the door hook idea. Funny how when you think you’ve figured something out, there’s almost always someone who’s already done it lol Will be using the door hook for my eufy, except that I’m using the wired version so will have to ensure that the cable can squeeze in under the mount.
Thank you! I live in an apartment and have no interest in destroying the property, but also don't want to sacrifice the peace of mind the cams bring me.
Your wreath hook idea is genius, I have been using an adhesive mount which does work ok but I'm concerned the glue will eventually fail or that someone will just rip it off. Attaching a wooden or metal plate to a wreath hook should be very trivial and then I can just bolt on the existing mount. Ring also make a peephole camera that I use on my front door but my back door has no peephole so less options.
Thank you!!! I just got my blink cameras and did not want to drill holes in my siding so I purchased the hooks. I wanted the gutter mount but I plan on getting gutter guards in a few weeks. New subscriber here!!!
What I love about my Reolink Argus 2 cameras is that they came with a strap which was perfect for mounting wrap around the gutters been up over a year no shaking or nothing.
I attached my Eufy doorbell cam to the window next to the door with double sided gorilla tape and over a year later it's still solid. I think it's only good for a non porous surface like glass.
I would not recommend using mounting tape outdoors with Arlo Pro 2. I used the toughest outdoor Scotch tape and the cameras fell after 1 month. They were hard drops onto concrete but I was impressed that Arlo still worked but the case was broken. The weight of the camera gradually pulled the tape off the wall.
i love the over the door hooks. i'm currently using a wyze cam v3 outside but.... inside a glass security door with the wire over the door using a screw in mount. i might consider the over the door hook after seeing this video, thanks lifehackster
I have put the wyze cam flat cable thru my window and I have a screen outside the window. I put the metal disc, then screen and then camera in a sandwich pattern. Then put the screen back in place. The camera is sitting there well so no holes etc. :) Edit: I have no sidings or gutters in my house. Front door also has a security door. So my option works well. :)
These tips are great! Telephone/internet and security took months to install, so I was burglarized while in the process of moving in. I am disabled and have been trying to figure out how I was going to install any cameras. A question I have is, can I add the camera to the door mount and then put the door mount on the door, as I read from some it is hard to attach the cameras?Thanks!
I was lazy used double sided tape under the front of house window and it worked ok (without using the blink mount just directly put the blink on the tape). The downside was repeating the process when the battery would run out. I am now using magnets.
That Vinyl siding you put the stainless steel hooks into, is completely different from most sidings, they don't work on my siding , I had to bend them to fit , There is a very small gap , on your siding that works .
Thanks for all of your videos! What about no screw mounting options for Doorbell cameras? I know it's better to screw them in for security reasons but not everyone can do that. I've tried 3M double sided tape and it's not working. I guess due to heat/humidity. Also there are different types of siding styles so the doorbell cameras don't sit flush causing issues with the 3M tape.
Thank you! This is very helpful! What kind or size screws do you recommend for a corner mount on stucco for the Blink 2? Or do you think underneath a patio the double sided mount tape is sufficient?
I like your video. I want to purchase the eufy. I went to the link for the over the door hooks but it was not found. What size over the door hook was your link pointing to on Amazon? I was about to give up hope of installing Eufy on my apartment door. Video is awesome.
Do you have a video on a step by step how to make our own mounts like you did in here for the Arlo Essential ? I’m confused on how you get the actual camera mount attached to the extra hardware you bought to hang ?
these are the lifehacks that i was talking about in a previous post. subscribe to this guy. he's the best
Thank You.

Excellent production quality in your video,valuable pragmatic content, the star of this show is charismatic. A + A + A.
Thank You. I appreciate it.
Agreed!!! Excellent - every single video.
Great ideas! Just brilliant! Thanks so much! You have some of the most practical, useful and detailed home security videos on RUclips!
Thank You. I appreciate it.

Awesome! I love the door hook idea, not allowed to drill holes outside my apt so that’s a great alternative!!

You have done it again. Another great and informative video. Thanks!! Keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!
Excellent video. Just bought a Reolink and had to find an option with no drill. Thanks a lot.
The over the door hook solution is honestly genius. I've thought of a lot of thing, but not that.
New siding just finished installing today. And we already have the siding hooks from past uses. Excellent idea and planning on try this option. Thanks
All of those photos on the wall at 6:56 made me laugh because in infrared they looked like you were naked. XD

Vihyl siding hooks are a life saver for avoiding holes.

I totally agree, I bought a door mount but my screen door covers the camera. The wreath hook is a perfect solution!
Another great review!
I appreciate that
Awesome video, exactly what I needed. The vinyl siding hooks will work great with my apartment and my blink camera!!
Glad I came across this, like many, I too rent and the least invasive option the better, don't want to upset the landlord.
Thank you! I so needed some clever ideas like this. Perfect.
Thank you.
This is exactly the video I was looking for, thank you!
Thanks, these solutions are perfect. They are exactly what I was looking for
Can make a recommendation for a video doorbell used in the gated homes like in the Philippines that has anti-theft function.

Dude, you just started my wheels a spinning!! I’m in an apartment and want to put up a kami ring bell. The over the door hook is my ticket
No one's gonna mention the choice of art at 6:57? 🤣
Awesome. Ordered a security camera to go on my patio and don't have the tools to drill in the brick....thank you...

Yes, the Arlos are a bit heavy and the mounting tape will eventually give in.
2021 and can't invent tape that sticks😳 gorilla glue sucks! Hold 30 lbs my ass can't even hold 1lb🤔🙄
I rent a room in an apartment so the corner camera and OTD mount are really good ideas.
Great tips, LifeHackster. I like the gutter brackets. Thanks for the tips.
Glad you like them!
New subbie on your blink camera review then found no screw mounting!! Great!!!!
i love the over the door hooks. i'm currently using a wyze cam v3 outside but.... inside a glass security door with the wire over the door using a screw in mount. i might consider the over the door hook after seeing this video, thanks lifehackster
You can try it out. Thanks.
Thank you so much! I needed this info
@paulapoblete1090...Thanks for watching!
Amazing video with lots of mounting options 👍👍👏👏
This is a good thing for giving your stuff to anyone comes to ur door
They can get it if they want.
Your the man just got my set of blink cameras and this was perfect
Thank you so much! This information was incredibly helpful!
I have put the wyze cam flat cable thru my window and I have a screen outside the window. I put the metal disc, then screen and then camera in a sandwich pattern. Then put the screen back in place. The camera is sitting there well so no holes etc. :)
Edit: I have no sidings or gutters in my house. Front door also has a security door. So my option works well. :)
Cool.. that should work too..
@@Auroramystic you have to read up about the history of ticks to know the answer. It's not weird at all once you know.
Wish you could post a pic of this!
thanks you the over the door hook is a very great idea. I can't drill holes into the place I'm renting from. thank you
You are welcome!
This was incredibly helpful! Thank you sir!
Great tips, thank you.
You are so welcome!

Can protective covers be used with any of these suggestions?
Awesome ideas. Thanks you for sharing this.👍👍👍😁😁😁

Any advice for mounting video doorbell when there’s a screen door. I live in a rental house so can’t use a drill.
Thank you!
Brilliant ideas!
What do you put behind the doorhanger to avoid the screws/bolts from scratching the door?
I placed a foam backing on the screw heads..
Very helpful thank u
Can u please do a review on the arlo essential wireless video doorbell.
were you able to find something for the arlo wireless?
Awesome ideas!!
Great vid. TY
Thanks.
Awesome video!!!👍
Great stuff sir
Totally awesome bro👍
That Vinyl siding you put the stainless steel hooks into, is completely different from most sidings, they don't work on my siding , I had to bend them to fit , There is a very small gap , on your siding that works .
Mine is actually a hardie board sidings but it still worked.
OMG. I love it. You are a life saver
This video is great thank you for the ideas. Can the same be used for outdoor lighting?
How exactly did you attach the stainless steel door hanger to the Eufy doorbell camera?
Nice one
can you make a video for inside the house without drilling holes .
I subscribed kuya! Salamat sa hacks. 😄
Do you have a security door hack for the ring doorbell? My door does not have a peephole, nor can I remove the security gate/door.
Great ideas.
I have a mobile home and I want to get the wireless eufy doorbell , can I use command strips to stick on my home ?
Excellent thank you very much.
I like the way you think
:)

Any suggestions for the Google Nest Cam?
Can’t find the corner mount on Amazon. Is there a specific name and model for it?
I have metal siding on my house. What's your suggestion? I don't believe those clips will work
Thank you! This is very helpful! What kind or size screws do you recommend for a corner mount on stucco for the Blink 2? Or do you think underneath a patio the double sided mount tape is sufficient?
awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it
Please send link t these products cannot find them especially white corner blink one
I live in a mobile home. Have Ring cams... any way to mount without screwing holes in aluminum siding?
Astig!
good review👍
Thank you ❤
Hi, can you list the names or link to the materials you mentioned? Thank you
I like your video. I want to purchase the eufy. I went to the link for the over the door hooks but it was not found. What size over the door hook was your link pointing to on Amazon? I was about to give up hope of installing Eufy on my apartment door. Video is awesome.
There is an updated video on this -> ruclips.net/video/MdlpQUqnpWk/видео.html and just use the door mount.
How long will the mounting tape last outdoors? 2 years?
Do you have a video on a step by step how to make our own mounts like you did in here for the Arlo Essential ? I’m confused on how you get the actual camera mount attached to the extra hardware you bought to hang ?
Will the siding hooks work with the Ring Outdoor/Indoor camera?!
Great video again! I was wondering if you had tried the Wasserstein door mount it is similar to the gutter mount but it goes over the door?
I missed that one when I was searching at Amazon.. I guess it looks like their gutter mount but yes, that should work pretty good too...
I have blink cameras and I want to install them on my wood siding but not drill holes, what kind of camera mount can I use?
