Recently reviewed this product from stakeout pretty cool product holds all models of trail cams. I have mine fixed up higher in a tree angled down over my food plot to get a broader view of the area. So far it works great.

Best one I have is the T-Post style mount. Very adaptable, I wouldn't buy anything else.

I use my own homemade ones. I set a cedar post or use an existing tree to mount to.

Might work as long as you have no hogs or cattle. I've got coons that can tear up a crowbar!!

Looks like a good box It looks like you are pretty limited on how you can set them. Looks to me if you drive the tpost a little off, you would have to pull it and drive again till ou get it just right.

You could also put a 4x4 in a five gallon bucket with a sack of quickcrete. This would allow it to be a lot more stable.

To mount our cameras to a t-post we buy the cheapest camera tripod we can fine (I bought one in a garage sale for $2) get a couple of hose clamps and mount the mast head post to the t-post with the hose clamps. This gives us unrestricted left-right and up-down adjustment of the camera.

Just finished my trail cam security boxes for my Primos cameras. They are heavy and should hold up. Mount to a tree using (3) 1/2" Lag Bolts and can also use a cable/ chain to secure to tree.

Thanks. After paint, I am going to line them with some 2" weatherstripping to ensure the camera is secure and dosent move any. Will post more pictures after installation. If someone wants to steal them, they will have to cut a 1/2" cable, a puck style Master lock, and unbolt (3) 4" x 1/2" lag bolts - or just cut down the tree. Either way, Im gonna make it hard for them to steal it.

I had about 3 hours in labor in each and about $20 in supplies for the metal and the hinge.
