When You Set Up

Last updated: June 10, 2026

This guide covers how to complete your Tapo camera wall mount installation using the included mounting template and hardware, and how to remove the camera from the base when needed. The camera base must be installed on the wall first before attaching the camera. The process is straightforward and can be completed in a few simple steps. All mounting hardware is included in the box, but you will need a drill.

Key Takeaways

Before drilling, use the included mounting template to mark the correct hole positions on the wall. For wall mounting, drill through the two marked circles.
Insert wall anchors into the drilled holes, then secure the camera base with screws to ensure a secure mount.
Once the base is secured, attach the camera by placing it on the base and rotating it clockwise to lock it in place.
To remove the camera from a wall-mounted base, hold the camera body and rotate it anticlockwise.
If the camera has not been wall-mounted, insert a coin into the slot on the base and rotate anticlockwise to separate the base from the camera.
