Shop Affordable Security Cameras

Protecting your home, property, or business starts with knowing what's happening. Cheap security cameras from Factory Buys cover everything from single indoor WiFi cameras to complete multi-camera NVR and DVR systems designed for Australian conditions. Our range includes both wireless and wired options, standalone IP cameras for specific rooms or entrances, and trail cameras for wildlife and remote property surveillance. For shoppers focused on wireless and WiFi camera systems specifically, our wireless security cameras page focuses on that product type in detail. For the broader appliances and security range, our home security category gives you the full picture across every product type. These cheap security cameras ship fast across Australia, backed by a 12-month warranty and 7-day support.

CCTV Systems, Standalone Cameras, and Trail Cameras in the Range

The products in this collection split into three distinct types, each serving a different surveillance need. Multi-camera CCTV systems, both wired DVR and wireless NVR configurations, give you coordinated coverage across multiple points of a property from a single recording unit. Standalone IP cameras are the more flexible option: individual WiFi cameras placed anywhere in range of the home network without the need for a central recorder. Trail cameras occupy a different use case entirely; designed for outdoor and remote monitoring, they handle low-light wildlife detection and property surveillance without needing a fixed power source or network connection. For vehicle surveillance that complements property cameras, our dash cams handles front and rear in-vehicle recording. For automated entry and access control alongside your surveillance setup, our gate openers adds motorised gate control to the property security picture.

Solar Panels and Battery Power for Off-Grid Security Cameras

Keeping cameras powered in locations without easy mains access is one of the practical challenges in a property surveillance setup. A dedicated solar panel for security cameras is a product in this range, providing a low-maintenance charging solution for wireless cameras on fences, gates, or outbuildings too far from internal power points to run a cable. Beyond the camera itself, a solar-charged portable battery can back up the full system during power outages, keeping recording uninterrupted. Outdoor lighting and cameras also work best as a combined deterrent: a well-lit area reduces the shadow zones that cameras struggle with at night. Our solar panels range extends this further into full property solar power setups beyond camera charging. For pairing cameras with ambient outdoor lighting, our outdoor lighting has the garden and property options that complement surveillance coverage.

DVR and NVR Recorders and What They Mean for Your System

The recorder is the hub of any multi-camera CCTV or NVR system, and understanding the difference between the two types simplifies the purchase. A DVR connects to wired cameras via coaxial cable and processes video on the recorder itself. An NVR connects to wireless IP cameras over the home network and stores processed footage centrally. Both recorder types appear in our range across various channel configurations, which determines how many cameras the system can support simultaneously. Video recorders with onboard storage keep footage local without subscription fees, a practical advantage for ongoing monitoring on a budget. For protecting valuables and documents alongside a camera setup, our home safes adds physical security to the property protection plan. For keeping security systems running during power cuts, our battery and power supplies backs up connected equipment when mains power is unavailable.

Building a Complete Home and Property Security Setup

Camera systems are rarely the only component in a thorough property security setup. Physical deterrents, entry control, and proper lighting work alongside surveillance to reduce the likelihood of incidents rather than just recording them after the fact. Mounting cameras at the right height and angle requires planning upfront, particularly for external cameras covering driveways, gate lines, and rear access points where height and angle significantly affect the field of view. Installing cameras on eaves, fascia boards, or upper walls often means working at height, and our ladders range gives you the stable access platform needed for a clean, secure installation. For broader property improvement projects that encompass security alongside renovation and maintenance work, our home improvement range has the tools, fittings, and hardware that make the surrounding project more manageable.

How do I choose between WiFi cameras and a wired CCTV system?

Choose based on how stable you want the connection and how permanent the setup is. WiFi cameras are usually easier to place and move, while wired systems suit a fixed setup with consistent recording. Check each listing for power needs, whether a recorder is included, and what your home network supports.

What camera placement and coverage should I plan before buying?

Walk around your property and list the key areas you want covered, like entry points and driveways. Measure mounting height and the distance to what you want to see clearly. Check each product listing for field of view and recommended placement so you can avoid blind spots and reduce glare from lights.

Which specs matter most: resolution, night vision, and storage size?

Start with resolution, as it affects how clearly you can identify faces and number plates at your required distance. Night vision range matters if you need coverage in low light. For storage, check whether it uses a memory card, cloud, or a recorder, and compare retention time based on your recording settings.

Does this system need professional installation or DIY setup?

Many security camera systems can be set up DIY, but it depends on the camera type and your comfort with mounting and cabling. WiFi models are usually a quicker install, while wired systems may involve running cables and positioning a recorder. Check the listing for what is included. If you need a hand, our partnership with Airtasker makes it easy to find a local professional to help.
