Video Systems for Answering Your Front Door

Front doors are more than a decorative fixture in your home. They are also the front entry point for visitors to your house. Front doors need to look great and also provide you with a sense of security. You want to be able to control who visits your home and be able to keep away unwanted guests or people you think might be causing problems.

Until recently, the only way to see who was ringing your doorbell was to look out of a peephole or out your window. This is hardly the best way to see who was outside and lets your visitors know that you are home. But recent technological advances have changed how homeowners can control their front doors. Through the use of video and wireless technology, homeowners can now get a clear picture of who is outside their front door from wherever they are inside.

New audio/video home answering systems gives homeowners the ability to “screen” their front doors in much the same way that they would screen their calls. When someone rings the front doorbell, the system takes a still picture of the person and sends it to a receiver inside. From there, you can choose to answer the door, ignore the doorbell or engage the person in a video conversation.

When combined with other forms of wireless technology that allow you to “keylessly” unlock your front door, these audio/video home answering systems allow you to fully utilize technology to take control of your front door.
