Renting shouldn't mean living without proper security. KeldCo's security cameras for renters are designed to protect your space without permanent installation, landlord headaches, or ongoing subscription fees.
Whether you're in a flat, house, or short-term rental, our wire-free, easy-mount cameras give you professional-grade protection you can take with you when you move. No holes in the wall. No monthly charges. No compromise.
Most security cameras are built for homeowners — permanent mounts, hardwired power, and cloud subscriptions that lock you in. Renters need something smarter.
You can't drill through walls or modify the property
You need a camera you can pack up and take when you leave
Monthly subscription fees add up fast on top of rent
You still deserve real security, not just a sticker on the window
KeldCo was founded by Erin and Josh Salkeld after experiencing break-ins firsthand. They built cameras that work for real people in real living situations — and that includes renters who deserve peace of mind without permanent commitment.
Not every camera works for rental living. Here's what matters most when you're choosing a security camera for home without the ability to make permanent changes.
The best security cameras for renters run on rechargeable batteries or solar power — no wiring required. KeldCo's Solar Camera Pro 3.0 uses built-in solar panels to stay powered indefinitely, meaning once it's up, it runs itself. Mounting options include magnetic bases, adhesive strips, and adjustable brackets that don't require drilling.
Cloud storage cameras charge you monthly just to access your own footage. KeldCo cameras store recordings locally on SD cards, so your footage stays yours — no ongoing fees, ever. This is especially important for renters who are already managing tight budgets.
A good renter's camera moves with you. KeldCo's wireless cameras can be unmounted and reinstalled in a new rental in minutes, giving you consistent protection no matter where you live.
The Solar Camera Pro 3.0 is the ultimate renter-friendly outdoor camera. Solar-powered, completely wire-free, and packed with features — motion detection, night vision, two-way audio, and local SD storage. Set it up on a fence post, balcony railing, or window ledge without touching a single wall.
The KeldCo Home Guardian Indoor Camera is compact, discreet, and simple to position anywhere indoors. Perfect for monitoring entry points, living areas, or valuable belongings inside your rental. Plug it in, connect to the app, and you're protected.
Living somewhere with unreliable Wi-Fi? The Solar Camera Pro 2.0 4G runs on a SIM card instead of your home network, making it ideal for rural rentals, short-term stays, or properties where internet access is limited or shared.
Most residential leases don't prohibit security cameras entirely, but some have clauses about modifications or external installations. Review your tenancy agreement and, if in doubt, send a quick message to your landlord. In most cases, a wire-free camera that leaves no marks is an easy approval.
Security cameras must only capture areas you have the right to monitor — your own entry door, balcony, garden, or interior rooms. Pointing a camera at a neighbour's property, shared spaces you don't control, or public areas without proper signage may breach privacy laws depending on your country or state.
For renters, outdoor cameras are often the first priority. A camera covering your front door or car park can deter opportunistic theft before it happens. Indoors, a single camera covering the main living area or entry hallway gives broad coverage without needing multiple devices. Explore outdoor wireless security cameras and indoor home security cameras to find the right fit for your space.
Most break-ins and incidents happen after dark. Make sure any camera you choose includes infrared or colour night vision. KeldCo cameras feature full colour night vision so you're not left with grainy black-and-white footage when it matters most. See our full night vision security camera range for more options.
Rental properties don't always have perfectly placed routers. Before positioning your camera, test your Wi-Fi signal strength in that spot. If signal is weak, consider a 4G camera like the Solar Camera Pro 2.0 that bypasses your home network entirely.
KeldCo isn't a faceless tech brand. It's an Australian-owned business built by real people — Erin and Josh Salkeld — who experienced the helplessness of a break-in and decided to do something about it. Every product they make is designed with practicality and accountability in mind.
When you buy from KeldCo, you get:
No subscriptions, ever — your footage is yours, stored locally
Wire-free options — designed for spaces where drilling isn't an option
Your own app — full control of your cameras, no third-party platform
Australian-owned and operated — real people, real support
Cameras built to move with you — protection that follows you from rental to rental
Outdoor Security Cameras — weatherproof protection for doors, driveways, and balconies
Wi-Fi Security Cameras — simple wireless setup for any rental property
Security Camera Motion Detection — get alerted the moment something moves
Yes, in most cases renters can absolutely use security cameras. In the majority of countries and states, tenants have the right to install cameras within and around their own rental space, provided the cameras don't damage the property or invade the privacy of others. Wire-free cameras are the ideal choice because they mount without drilling or permanent fixtures, making them easy to install and remove without affecting your bond or tenancy. Always check your specific lease agreement and local tenancy laws to be sure, but for most renters, a non-invasive wireless camera is completely acceptable.
The best security system for renters is one that requires no permanent installation, stores footage locally without monthly fees, and can be taken to your next property. The KeldCo Solar Camera Pro 3.0 (Wi-Fi) is an excellent choice — it's solar-powered, wire-free, and records to an SD card so there's no subscription required. For indoor coverage, the KeldCo Home Guardian Indoor Camera adds a second layer of protection that's compact, discreet, and plug-in simple. Together, they give renters a complete, portable security setup without long-term commitments.
To capture readable licence plate details, you need a camera with high resolution (at least 1080p, ideally 4K), a narrow field of view focused on the driveway or entry point, and good low-light performance. The KeldCo Solar Camera Pro 3.0 offers sharp resolution and night vision capable of capturing vehicle details at entry points. For best results, position the camera at vehicle height and angle it to capture the front or rear plate directly rather than from above. Avoid wide-angle positions that reduce plate clarity.
The rules around security cameras in Airbnb properties are strict and have evolved significantly. Hosts are required to disclose the presence of any security cameras in their listing, and cameras inside private spaces such as bedrooms and bathrooms are strictly prohibited under Airbnb's policies and under the law in virtually every country. Cameras in common areas like living rooms or front doors are generally permitted if disclosed. As a guest staying in an Airbnb, you are legally entitled to know about any cameras present. If you discover an undisclosed camera, you should report it to Airbnb immediately and, if appropriate, to local authorities.
Airbnb announced a global ban on indoor security cameras in all listed properties, which came into effect in 2024. The decision followed years of guest complaints about undisclosed cameras being discovered in private spaces, including bedrooms and bathrooms. The ban was driven by a need to restore trust between guests and hosts, and to align with privacy laws that already prohibited covert recording in private spaces. Outdoor cameras at entry points are still permitted under Airbnb's updated policy, provided they are clearly disclosed in the listing. The move reflects a broader industry shift toward stronger privacy protections for short-term rental guests worldwide.
