Nothing.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have the same dilemma all I can say is screw the lock nut as tight as possible and mount it as high as possible we had to end up purchasing another camera and located it down the sidewalk a ways. Remember you also have the ability to set the siren off so if you get an alert turn it on might bother them enough to give up. This is a problem but the magnetic mounts are even worse you could jump up and grab it. If it's screwed on tight and out of arms reach it's a bit hard to keep jumping up and down to unscrew it. Otherwise we've had good luck with the product. Good luck
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Nothing prevents someone from unscrewing the camera. You need to put it up high enough so people cannot reach it. But if they try to take it you will have an up close picture of them. A Best Buy associate told us to buy a metal chain/cord and attach it to the camera like they have at the stores. Hope that helps. We love our cameras.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You have to buy the piece because the Arlo system If someone tries to steal the camera I’ve been informed that they will replace my camera if that ever happened Sold for 20 bucks it’s not a bad deal Could be a little lower in cost but 20 bucks is still bad I would not use the screws that came with it because a rush to easily
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It will notify you when someone is it it's view and you can set off the alarm from wherever you are
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.We had the same issue. We just put it up high we leaned over the upper patio desk
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Nothing except height. You have to make sure it's not at a reachable height.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Honestly I don't think anything prevents someone from unscrewing it. This is why I tried to mount mine as high as I could while still getting the image output I want. At least make it hard to steal.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Nothing. However, it is a better solution than the simple magnet setup.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.if you have it high enough no one will be able to unscrew and walk off with it. If they do happen to be able to do such actions, the camera will/should be on and will capture the face of the person removing the camera/mount. But if you are worried, mount it high
