A smart doorbell serves as a modern replacement for the traditional doorbell, connecting to the internet for added convenience. Installing a smart doorbell such as the popular manufacturer Ring can bring many benefits such as:
- Alert your mobile device when someone’s at the door.
- Provide video evidence of suspicious activity.
- Deter burglars looking to break in.
- Allows you to take in packages even when you’re not home.
- Save money on your home insurance premium.
Are smart doorbells worth it?
Smart doorbells are an effective solution to our modern-day problems like ordering way too much on Amazon! A smart doorbell is also a cost-effective home security method which requires almost no maintenance. They are a great low-cost high reward investment.
Do doorbells record all the time?
This will depend on the type you choose. Most smart doorbells like Ring use motion detection. When someone approaches your door, the camera activates, and you get an alert straight to your phone. You can then see who’s visiting and speak to them.
Smart technology compatibility
Another real advantage of smart doorbells is you can integrate the doorbell with your existing smart home devices like an Alexa or google nest.
Smart doorbell installation
Installing a smart doorbell is considered as a ‘small job’ from an electrician’s perspective. However, if you don’t have some basic DIY knowledge you might find the task a little complex. Hiring an electrician even for a small job like a doorbell installation is always a smart idea. It will be fitted safely and correctly in a fraction of the time. A key component of a successful smart doorbell installation includes what’s known as a doorbell transformer. A doorbell transformer is an electrical device which is wired into your electrical system. Once connected, the transformer drops the voltage level produced by your electrical system which allows your doorbell to operate safely and effectively. Typically, a doorbell transformer is installed near the fusebox, but they can also be found in a garage or loft. The upside of hiring an electrician to hardwire your new smart doorbell is that they’ll know exactly what transformer is needed making the process smoother and stress free.
Hardwire doorbell benefits
A hardwired doorbell can cover a longer range, making it a great option for larger homes. Plus, you won't have to worry about interference from other signals. With many unique design options available, you can choose a doorbell that matches your home's décor. And if you're looking for a cost-friendly home security option, a hardwired doorbell is a great choice. Additionally, you can opt for a light up-push button without worrying about battery drain.
