Apartment living comes with its own set of security challenges — shared entrances, close neighbours, and limited installation options. KeldCo's security cameras for apartments are designed to work with those realities, not against them.
Whether you're renting or own your unit, our cameras offer flexible, wire-free setup, crisp footage, and smart alerts — all without a single monthly fee. No subscriptions. No cloud lock-in. Just real protection that fits real apartment life.
You don't need a sprawling property or a professional installer to stay protected. KeldCo apartment security cameras are compact, easy to mount, and built for both indoor and outdoor use — perfect for unit dwellers across Australia and worldwide.

Day and night recording ensures round-the-clock awareness
Motion detection alerts you the moment something moves
Not every camera is built for apartment living. Here's what actually matters when choosing yours.
Landlords and body corporates often restrict permanent installation. Solar-powered and battery-operated cameras like the KeldCo Solar Camera Pro 3.0 can be mounted with minimal fixings and moved as needed — no landlord approval nightmares.
Many cameras lock your footage behind a monthly cloud fee. KeldCo cameras store footage locally, which means no ongoing costs and no risk of losing access to your recordings if a subscription lapses.
Apartments are close quarters. A camera that's small and unobtrusive protects your privacy while still doing its job. Our small security cameras range is purpose-built for tight spaces and low-profile placement.
You can't watch a live feed all day. Motion-triggered notifications mean you only get alerted when something actually happens. Browse our security camera motion detection collection for cameras built around this feature.
Security in an apartment isn't just about what's inside your unit — it's also about your front door, balcony, garage bay, and building entry.
For internal coverage, the KeldCo Home Guardian Indoor Video Camera is an excellent choice. It's compact, Wi-Fi connected, and offers clear footage with easy app access. Perfect for monitoring entryways, living areas, or any room you want to keep an eye on.
For balcony or outdoor use, the Solar Camera Pro range handles weather, sunlight, and distance with ease. Explore our indoor outdoor security camera collection for cameras built to transition between both environments seamlessly.
If you're renting, review your lease or check with your property manager before mounting any camera. Many landlords permit cameras that don't require drilling or permanent fixtures, so wire-free options are often the easiest path forward.
Security cameras must be used responsibly. In Australia, and in most countries worldwide, it is illegal to record people in private spaces without consent. Cameras should only cover areas you have legitimate reason to monitor — your own unit, balcony, or front door.
A common question is whether cameras can face shared hallways or common areas. The answer depends on local body corporate rules and privacy legislation. As a general rule, point cameras toward your own property to avoid any disputes with neighbours or building management.
When footage is stored on a local SD card or hard drive, it doesn't pass through third-party servers. This is actually a privacy advantage for apartment dwellers who don't want their footage sitting in someone else's cloud.
Apartment buildings can have thick concrete walls that weaken wireless signals. Before choosing a camera placement, test your Wi-Fi signal strength in that area. If signal is weak, consider a Wi-Fi extender or a 4G-connected camera like the Solar Camera Pro 2.0 4G as a fallback.

The best security camera for an apartment combines compact design, flexible installation, and reliable performance without a monthly fee.

Both store footage locally, require no subscription, and work through the KeldCo app for easy remote access.
Yes, you can place a security camera inside your own apartment without needing any permissions. If you plan to mount a camera outside your unit — on a balcony, for example — it's worth checking your tenancy agreement or body corporate rules first. Wire-free cameras are typically the easiest solution for renters since they don't require permanent installation.
A good apartment security system doesn't have to be complicated. A combination of an indoor camera like the Home Guardian Indoor Video Camera and an outdoor camera like the Solar Camera Pro 3.0 gives you complete coverage of your entry points and living space. KeldCo's system uses a single app, local storage, and zero subscription fees — making it a practical and affordable option for apartment dwellers worldwide.
Yes, but with important limitations. You can legally use a security camera to monitor your own unit and private outdoor areas like your balcony. Pointing a camera at shared hallways, stairwells, or communal areas may be governed by body corporate rules or local privacy laws, so always check before placing cameras in those locations. When in doubt, focus coverage on spaces that are clearly yours.
This depends on your local privacy laws and the intent of the camera. In most countries, including Australia, it is generally not permitted for a neighbour to record footage inside your home or private outdoor areas without your consent. If you believe a neighbour's camera is pointing directly into your apartment, you have the right to raise the issue with building management or your local privacy authority. Documenting your concern with photos or written evidence is a good first step.
