2Pack Security Wall Mount for Arlo Pro/Pro2/Pro3/Pro4/Ultra/Ultra2/Essential Spotlight Camera, Adjustable Indoor/Outdoor Mounting Bracket for Your Surveillance Camera (White)

*Pro tips at the end of the review I recently purchased these mounts to be able to have more flexibility in aiming a few new Arlo cameras in the direction that I needed for maximum coverage. Let’s be honest, the factory (original equipment manufacturer, OEM) mounts that come with most new cameras, while very well-made and easy to mount and use do not exactly excel in the range of motion (ROM) department. For simple applications, most OEM mounts are great, but when you need flexibility or have a tricky angle, to Amazon we go. After searching the available mounting options for a set of new Arlo Essential cameras I got at Costco, I landed on these based on the clearance the camera had to move in the gimble-like mount giving an enormous number of options for directing the cameras at desired locations. I needed to mount the cameras on a flat surface and aim them at an extreme angle to the left and right, which the OEM mounts do not allow with their narrow ROM. These mounts gave me the flexibility I needed to aim precisely* where I wanted to and lock in place seemingly quite sturdily. While they do come preset with what looks like double-sided outdoor tape on the back of the mounting bases, I did not use this option and utilized mounting screws (of my own) as I wouldn’t personally trust my cameras to tape. Pros: - Super easy to install - Great price - Parts fit together well and move fairly fluidly if a little sloppy when loose Cons: - Provided screws are crumby and threads are not conducive for good purchase in wood (note: the screws and drywall mounts may* work ok in drywall, and while I did not mount on this surface, I would still use different hardware if I did) - Materials are typical mass-production items used in China such as pot metal and aluminum, s while rust and oxidization are unlikely in the short term, I wouldn’t drop it from any height as it may sustain damage easily - Adjusting can be a little tricky as the swivel adjustment has two settings tight and sloppy (see pro tips for my recommendations on adjustment tricks) *Pro tips: - remove the swivel with the attached camera mounting post from the base before attaching it to your camera - once you screw the camera mounting post into the back of your camera and tighten the counter locking nut hand tight, give it an additional slight turn with a small pair of plyers to lock it in and help prevent unwanted separation - leave both the swivel (wingnut) and rotational (knob) adjustments slightly loose when attempting to find the desired angle, then secure the swivel first and the rotational second as the rotational is much easier to lock.

Makes a great security camera set up better with the help of these brackets. Better adjustability and coverage than the brackets that came with cameras, well made and sturdy

Love the angle, the simple installation, the color being dark and subtle. Don't love how I need pliers to tighten down the top big silver knob. It comes with a rubber gasket, and as much as I could tighten this top knob down (with gloves on too) the cam was still a bit wobbly. I had to add a 2nd rubber washer and a copper crush washer AND use a pair of channelock pliers to secure it... that said, once it's in place there's no reason to access it and should be fine. What would be nice is instead of a burled silver knob to turn, make it a wing-nut style and also include more washers because the depth of my cameras mount point is more shallow or the length of that silver knurled knob is too long (or combonation of both) and luckily I had a spare washer and pliers. Quite nice looking and more sturdy than required.

Very Nice works well easy to mount

I purchased this product because I wanted a very low profile mount. My plan is to use only the "head" portion mounted on the overhang soffit near my front door. I will need to make a mounting adapter but now that I have the part in my hands I am sure it will work fine for my needs. I'm using it for a Eufy E40 camera (not Arlo). The mounting stud is a standard 1/4 -20 so pretty much any camera will fit. Even my digital camera would work. This review however is to report the excellent construction and finishing. The parts look like a much more expensive device. The finish is matte white and near perfect. When tightened up the mount is very rigid. On the bottom is a custom cutout piece of 3M VHB double sided tape. This tape is "very" strong (learned from attaching an LED light to my bathroom mirror). Non painted metal parts are aluminum, the screw that locks the swivel appears to be stainless as it has very little attraction to a magnet. I don't normally gush about a product like this but this one surprised me with its excellent construction. Especially for the price point. John

Sturdy, well made. Provides a variety of angles for mounting, easy to use. Very reasonable price. Would definitely buy again.

these cameras are great. i was looking for inexpensive but good quality and these have not given me any issues. holds a charge for a while and the app lets you know when the battery is low. holds up in any kind of weather. we gets about 300" of snow per year and it has held up great outside.

Doesn’t work

Came in a Very timely manner. Smaller than expected. Looks sturdy enough. All metal product. All fittings for installation. However will fit in a small space.
