Key Takeaways
Match security camera features to the needs of each unique area of your home, such as privacy protection in the kitchen and motion sensors in the garage.
Consider field of view, night vision, two-way audio, and other features as you choose the best security camera for each room and part of your property.
Every area of your home has specific security camera needs. When it comes to an expansive backyard, you’ll want more powerful lights and wide-view coverage. At the front door, your best bet is a video doorbell that lets you see and speak to visitors. To figure out which devices best fit different parts of your home, check out these area-specific Arlo recommendations.
Because every space matters: Security where you need it.
Covering every nook and cranny of your property provides the most complete home security experience. Try these suggestions to find the right security camera for every room, walkway, and outdoor space:
Watch the doors: Smart coverage for entry points that matter.
Secure your main entry points with a multifunctional home security solution like the Arlo Video Doorbell 2K. This front door, backdoor, and general entryway security camera features 180° Field of View, Night Vision and Motion Detection, 2-Way Audio, and an Integrated Siren, all with easy DIY installation, whether you install it wired or wireless. You can even receive a video call when your doorbell is pressed, so you’ll always know exactly who’s at your door, even if you’re not there.
Kitchen security cameras: Securing the heart of the home.
For the place where so much life happens, we recommend a kitchen security camera that lets you control what’s monitored. The Arlo Essential Indoor Camera 2nd Gen features our Automated Privacy Shield, allowing you to close the shield with a tap on your smartphone. This camera also features Night Vision, 2-Way Audio, and 130° Field of View, so it’s got you covered when you need it.
Living room and hallway security cameras: Keep an eye on the action.
For high-traffic areas, the security camera available in 2K or HD video captures wide family spaces and narrow hallways in crystal clear detail. You can trust its coverage day or night thanks Color Night Vision, 130° Field of View, and an Integrated Spotlight.
Basement surveillance: Downstairs doesn’t mean out of sight.
Whether your basement is primarily a rec room, utility room, or multiuse space, we recommend Arlo Essential Indoor Camera 2nd Gen. This security camera features infrared Night Vision, making it ideal for low-light areas, and the 2-Way Audio can come in handy to touch base or check on anyone downstairs.
Garage goals: Monitoring your car’s favorite spot.
When it comes to the best garage security camera, our pick is the indoor/outdoor Arlo Essential XL 2nd Gen wireless security camera featuring extended battery life and 2K resolution with motion alerts to keep tabs on tools and vehicles. For added garage security, try Arlo All-in-One Sensors with open/close detection on all your garage entry points.
Out here, you’re covered: Smart cameras for outdoor peace of mind.
To illuminate outdoor spaces like a driveway and front or backyards, we recommend the Wired Floodlight security light and camera. With Color Night Vision, articulating lights, 2-Way Audio, an Integrated Siren, and a 160° Field of View, you’ll rest easy knowing your driveway and yard security camera is keeping your home secure.
If you want to monitor parts of your property beyond the reach of your electrical system, pair the Wireless Floodlight security light and camera with our easy-to-install Arlo Solar Panel Charger. With this duo, you can keep an eye on these hard-to-power places, rain or shine, and let the sun do the charging
Cover your bases with Arlo cameras for every space.
When you’re deciding how many security cameras you need in your home, now you’ll also know how to get the best protection for each unique space.

No matter where you are in (or out!) of your house, your home is protected with the Arlo Secure Plan. Just one tap from the Arlo app, and fire, police, or medical responders can be dispatched whenever you need them. This is one more way to secure every area of your unique home.
