Home Intercom System
(or doorbell intercom)

A home intercom system (also known as a doorbell intercom) lets you know who's knocking at your door before you open it and risk a Push-In. It's especially effective when using a Peephole as well.

You can even just watch and listen to your visitors without them knowing you're there. Now you can be fully aware and control the situation.

An inexpensive wireless intercom is ideal – see www.SmartHome.com. It's a good idea to put one on each of your exterior doors.

Additional intercom units throughout your home let you talk to visitors at your door from anywhere in your home. You can also talk to another family member in another room – say from a second story bedroom to the basement. See www.smarthome.com.

Many other intercom models are also at SmartHome – some with cameras so you can also see who’s at your door from anywhere in your home.

A wireless intercom needs batteries periodically and may get occasional signal interference but is easy to install and is portable if you relocate to a new home.

[An intercom replaces the dangerous "Door Chains" (a.k.a. chain door interviewers or chain-locks) that allow partial door opening to talk to a visitor. They're far too flimsy to stop an aggressive push-in. Newer "high-tech" types are a little better but still not nearly good enough.]
