Blink Outdoor Camera Mounting Instructions
Mounting your Blink outdoor camera is a straightforward process, but it’s important to follow the instructions carefully to ensure proper installation.
The camera itself is equipped with a magnetic base, so it can easily be attached to any metal surface. First, find a spot on the surface where you want to mount the camera, and make sure that it’s free of dirt, dust, and other debris.
Then, use the included screw to attach the magnetic base to the back of the camera. Be sure to line up the base correctly, as it will only attach in one direction.
Once the base is attached, hold the camera up to the desired spot and use the magnetic force to attach it to the surface. Make sure the camera is pointing in the desired direction, and that the angle is correct.
You can also use the included wall mount to attach the camera to a wall. The wall mount is designed to fit over standard electrical boxes, so it’s perfect for mounting the camera indoors.
First, find a spot on the wall where you want to mount the camera, and make sure that it’s free of dirt, dust, and other debris.

How do you mount Blink cameras?
There are a few ways you can mount a Blink camera.
The easiest way is to use the included adhesive mount. Just peel and stick the mount to a flat surface in a desired location, then snap the camera into the mount.
If you need to mount the camera in a more specific location or want to use it in a different way, you can use the included mounting bracket. The bracket can be attached to a wall or other surface with screws or nails. The camera can then be attached to the bracket with the included screws.
You can also use the camera’s built-in magnet to mount it to a metal surface. Just place the magnet on the desired location and the camera will stick to it.
How do you mount an outdoor Blink camera without screws?
If you want to mount your Blink camera outdoors without using screws, you can use the included mount and adhesive.
To attach the camera to a surface, remove the protective film from the adhesive, and press the camera against the desired location. The camera will stick securely to most surfaces.
If you need to move the camera, the adhesive can be easily removed by peeling it off the surface. Be sure to clean the surface before reapplying the adhesive.
How do you mount a blink outdoor camera to Brick?
Mounting a blink outdoor camera to a brick can be a bit tricky. The first thing you need to do is find a spot on the brick where the camera can be securely attached. You may need to use a drill or a hammer and chisel to create a hole in the brick that the camera can fit into. Once the hole is drilled, you can use the included screws to mount the camera to the brick. Make sure that the camera is level and pointing in the right direction before securing it in place.

Do Blink cameras come with mounting brackets?
Blink cameras come with a standard base that can be mounted to a wall or ceiling. The cameras can also be tilted up or down to get the perfect angle. If you need to mount the camera in a specific spot, you can purchase a mounting bracket separately.
How high should I mount my blink outdoor camera?
How high to mount a blink outdoor camera depends on the specific model of camera and the surroundings in which it will be used. In general, the higher the camera is mounted, the better the view it will have. However, it is important to take other factors into account when deciding on the best location for a camera, such as the height of surrounding objects and how much sunlight the camera will be exposed to.
Some blink outdoor cameras come with a mounting kit that includes a bracket and screws for attaching the camera to a wall or other surface. For cameras that do not include a mounting kit, there are a variety of ways to mount them, including using a tripod, a roof mount, or a pole mount.
When choosing a location for a blink outdoor camera, it is important to take into account the angle of view that the camera will have. The angle of view is the area that the camera can see, and is measured in degrees. Most blink outdoor cameras have an angle of view of between 120 and 180 degrees.
It is also important to consider the height of surrounding objects. If the camera is mounted too high, it may not be able to see below nearby objects, such as a fence or a roof. In general, the higher the camera is mounted, the better the view it will have, but it is important to make sure that important objects below the camera are within its angle of view.
Sunlight can also be a consideration when mounting a blink outdoor camera. If the camera is mounted in a location that receives a lot of sunlight, it may become overheated. Some cameras come with a sunshield that can be used to protect the camera from the sun.
When deciding on the best location for a blink outdoor camera, it is important to take into account the specific model of camera, the angle of view, the height of surrounding objects, and how much sunlight the camera will be exposed to.
How do I stop my Blink camera from being stolen?
When it comes to home security, a camera system is a great investment. However, if your camera is not properly secured, it can be easily stolen. In this article, we will provide you with tips on how to stop your Blink camera from being stolen.
One of the easiest ways to protect your camera is to use a security cable. A security cable can be attached to your camera and to a heavy object, like a door handle or a piece of furniture. This will make it more difficult for someone to steal your camera.
Another way to prevent theft is to mount your camera in a visible location. If the camera is hidden, it will be easier for someone to steal it. By mounting your camera in a visible location, you will make it more difficult for a thief to take it without being seen.
Finally, you can also password protect your camera. This will make it more difficult for someone to access your footage or to take control of your camera.
Following these tips will help you to protect your Blink camera from being stolen.
How do you install an outdoor security camera without drilling?
Installing an outdoor security camera without drilling may seem like an impossible task, but it can be done with a few simple tools and some ingenuity.
The first step is to identify the spot where you want to install the camera. Make sure that the camera will have a clear view of the area you want to monitor. Once you have chosen a spot, use a level to make sure that it is completely horizontal.
If the spot you have chosen is not already prepped for the installation of a security camera, you will need to create a mount for the camera. One way to do this is to use a piece of wood and drill two holes in it to create a platform for the camera to sit on. You can then use screws or nails to attach the wood to the wall or to the roof.
If you do not want to use screws or nails, you can use a strong adhesive to attach the camera to the mount. Make sure that the adhesive is weatherproof so that it will not deteriorate in the rain or snow.
Once the mount is in place, you can then attach the camera to it. Make sure that the camera is level and that the angle of the camera is correct.
Once the camera is in place, you can connect it to a power source. If the camera is not battery powered, you will need to run a cable from the camera to the power source.
Make sure that the cable is properly secured and that it will not be damaged by the elements.
Now you are ready to test the camera to make sure that it is working correctly.
