Video doorbells let you see and speak with visitors from your phone, even when you are away.

They help deter package theft and provide a record of who comes to your door. Choose a wired model for continuous power or a battery model for easy installation.

Pin Tip

Adjust motion zones so passing cars on the street do not trigger constant alerts.

Stay Within the Law

Use cameras to protect your own property, never to record places where people expect privacy such as bathrooms or bedrooms of others. Recording laws vary, and audio recording carries extra rules. When in doubt, speak with an attorney before installing or using any surveillance system.

Professional Help

For investigations, licensed professionals know how to gather evidence lawfully. Ohio Security & Investigations, a licensed Ohio agency, can be reached at (888) 341-6960 for confidential consultations.
