There is no doubt that a strong casing will improve the durability and lifespan of a security camera. However, there are some considerations to make before using them, especially when using aftermarket cases on existing camera set-ups.
An important thing to asses before installing a case is whether it will interfere with any wireless radio signals on a camera system. Wired systems will not have this issue, but installing a new casing on a pre-installed wireless camera may affect the radio signal and may even reduce the range of the signal.
The type of casing that should be used often depends heavily where the camera is situated. For example a camera that is positioned high enough will be vulnerable to heavier wind and rain than a camera that is closer to the ground. For this reason a casing that is suitable for these conditions should be used.
