Main door, with power and Wi‑Fi signal checked
Key facts
The video doorbell secures your main entrance. When someone presses the button — or approaches, if a video rule is enabled — the Alarm.com app can send you a notification. You then open the live video, hear the visitor and answer them with two-way audio. If a compatible smart lock is installed, you can confirm who the visitor is and unlock the door from the same app.

Questions about the video doorbell
Is it compatible with my alarm system?
Compatibility depends on the exact panel model, its radio frequency and the active Alarm.com service. Solution Alarme Plus checks these before confirming the equipment.
Where should this device be installed?
Main door, at face and package height. The final location also takes into account radio range, power supply, the environment and the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Will I get alerts on my phone?
Button press. Available notifications and how they can be customized depend on the configuration and the selected package.
