Description

The Wasserstein Anti-Theft Mount for Google Nest Cam (Outdoor or Indoor, Battery) locks your camera onto its base with a security screw instead of the stock magnetic mount, so it can’t just be grabbed and walked off with. Google’s Nest Cam attaches magnetically by design, which is convenient until the camera sits within arm’s reach of the street, a boundary wall, or a gate anyone can stand next to.

What Is the Wasserstein Anti-Theft Mount?

It’s a Made for Google security bracket that replaces the standard magnetic base with a locked housing, secured using a proprietary security screw that only the included screwdriver can open. Google itself recommends this kind of mount for any Nest Cam installed below roughly 6 feet, since the factory mount alone was never built to resist someone simply lifting the camera off.

Key Features at a Glance

Security screw locking system — opens only with the included specialised screwdriver
Anti-drop protection that keeps the camera firmly seated if accidentally knocked
Weather-resistant hood that shields the lens from sun glare and rain, which can also improve footage clarity in bright UAE daylight
Aligned cutouts for full access to the charging port and speaker, so daily use isn’t affected
Made for Google certified for guaranteed fit and compatibility

Why This Mount Matters More at Ground Level

A magnetic Nest Cam mounted above head height is a minor inconvenience to steal. One mounted near a gate, a low wall, or anywhere within reach is a different story, and it’s exactly the placement where theft-resistant mounting earns its price. We’ve fitted these on villa perimeter walls and low garden posts across Dubai where the standard base alone wasn’t going to cut it.

Anti-Theft vs Anti-Drop — Two Separate Problems Solved

The locking screw stops someone from lifting the camera off deliberately, while the housing itself stops it from falling if it’s ever bumped loose accidentally — a wind gust, a ladder brushing past it, a curious pet. Most buyers only think about the theft side until they realise the drop protection matters just as much for cameras mounted near driveways or walkways.

Compatibility Note

This mount fits the Google Nest Cam (Outdoor or Indoor, Battery) specifically. It is not compatible with the Google Nest Cam Outdoor (wired) or the older Nest Cam IQ Outdoor, so it’s worth confirming your exact camera model before ordering. The Google Home Automation team can check this for you if you’re unsure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this mount work with the wired Google Nest Cam Outdoor? No. It’s designed specifically for the Google Nest Cam (Outdoor or Indoor, Battery) and isn’t compatible with the wired outdoor camera or the older Nest Cam IQ Outdoor.

At what height does Google recommend using an anti-theft mount? Google recommends it for any Nest Cam Battery installed below roughly 6 feet (2 metres), since cameras at that height are within easy reach.

Will the locked housing affect charging or audio? No, the mount is designed with cutouts that leave the charging port and speaker fully accessible, so daily charging and two-way audio work exactly as normal.

Can I still remove the camera myself later? Yes, using the included security screwdriver. Without that specific tool, though, removing the camera is deliberately difficult, which is the entire point of the design.

Does Smartgain deliver this across the UAE? Yes, we ship to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, and other Emirates. Shipping and return details are on our FAQ page.
