Security is a constant and growing concern for people these days when considering their homes, businesses and other properties. Traditional security measures such as keys, door chains and peepholes are often now seen to be inadequate, with determined criminals now able to circumnavigate most older security systems.

One newer piece of technology that can help you to counter this a front door peephole camera, which allows you to remotely and discreetly view whoever is standing by your door. With cameras such as these, you can safely see who is there from anywhere in your residence without alerting them- you’ll never be surprised or caught off guard again.

So with this in mind, what is the best digital door viewer? This article will compare some the the current market leaders, helping you to better understand these products and to make the most informed decision regarding which is the best door peephole camera for you.

Its wide angle lens allows for you to see people of virtually any height while they are standing at your door, but without distorting their appearance. It may lack some of the extra features which other peephole cameras boast, but the Brinno delivers with robust specifications and reliable performance. Its compact nature and simple controls make it well suited for elderly users or those who are seeking additional security options for an apartment unit.

Installation is once again straightforward, and it gets a good rate of use out of its three AA battery power supply, lasting for up to 1500 views. The AGPtek is a very straightforward item which covers all the bases effectively. If you are looking for a good value, sturdy device, then this may be the best door peephole camera for you.

Furthermore, it takes no more than 5 minutes to install, and its two AA battery power supply is good for up to 1000 views. It also features an adjustable shaft for the peephole camera, meaning that it can be fitted onto even the thickest of doors. The whole system is silent and discreet, allowing you to see who is at your door before deciding whether to make yourself known. All round, this is a quality product that delivers on all fronts.

Of the products listed above, only Brinno and Buler have an average looking peephole sticking out on your door. It’s a perfect ‘low tech’ disguise – your visitors won’t be able to tell that you have a digital viewer on the other side. Most houses these days have peepholes supposedly for home “security”, however there’s very real threat that comes with it.

With a reverse peephole viewer, anyone outside your door can actually see what’s inside your house. This device was originally used by law enforcement agencies to help assess potential threat before breaking in. However, this technology has become available and accessible to the masses so there’s a risk that unscrupulous people will use this for their own ends. Thankfully, there are portable peephole covers that you use use to safeguard your home and prevent people from looking inside your house.

Peepholes may be simple and inexpensive but they have real security risks which you can easily countered with digital door viewers. If you have pricey gadgets and appliances inside the house which are potential targets for thieves, then you need to defend your home.

If you’re looking a wireless solution, one that can be synced in with your mobile phone, then take a look at these wireless doorbells with video function. If you live in a small apartment or flat, a digital door viewer may be adequate for needs. However, if you have a big house or at least one with a garden or several bedrooms, then a wifi-enabled video doorbell is more suitable for you.

You can never be too careful these days, and any one of these products will greatly bolster your home’s security and amount to a very strong deterrent to intruders, as well as a time-saving option for screening unwanted or unsolicited callers. A door viewer peephole can provide great peace of mind for a comparatively low cost, and one of the products listed above is likely to be the best door peephole camera for your needs.

With a dearth of decent peephole cameras available right now you do have another option if you’re looking for more smarts and features. There are a wide variety of no-drill mounts available for major brand video doorbells that allow you to use these without damaging the property.

Like home security cameras, a higher resolution peephole camera is always going to give you better results, but you may not need full HD video for your situation. Cheaper options can still provide sufficient clarity to identify people and see what is going on in front of the door, especially when these types of devices can’t be angled any other way. The best peephole camera for you may not be the highest resolution one, and high video resolution doesn’t reflect true camera quality.

Many of these peephole cameras have a larger housing on the outside of the front door, usually to accommodate a doorbell button and night vision LEDs. You might not need that, in which case going with a more discrete model could be preferable. These models completely conceal the presence of a peephole camera, and just look like a normal peephole. This is less obvious and ensures there nothing for vandals to target, but you’ll also lose some functionality like night vision, two-way talk, and integrated doorbell functions.

This is a feature common on video doorbells and basically means you can talk to the person outside the door from the inside, or even from the smartphone app (if there is one). After all, there isn’t much point being able to see the person outside if you have to open the door to talk to them anyway. Peephole camera don’t commonly support this feature, so it’s worth keeping an eye out for it.

Many peephole cameras will have motion detection features and capture either photos or video of the event. This is handy, but of limited usefulness if you can’t be notified about it as well. Better models will include some sort of notification when motion is detected, which may be as simple as a beep on the internal screen.

Peephole security cameras with Wi-Fiand a smartphone app provide the best home security benefit as they will be able to alert you wherever you are and may offer advanced notification controls to limit where motion will trigger a notification, and what types of motion you’re interested in (only people for example).

Some of these devices are merely a door viewer and don’t even store video. For those that do, storing peephole camera videos locally provides the best solution from a privacy perspective, but often limits the usefulness of the device. In these cases, you may only be able to access the video from your local network, or possibly only on the device itself.

Nowadays the safety issue for front door security is much more important, and door is the last protection of home security. There is new innovation of door view solution going to be popular to the market. It’s easy to find there are 2 different structures of front door camera solution, one is the peephole camera which is using the original peephole lens, and another is door cam which is using the camera module. Here are the brief information and comparison.

Peephole camera uses original peephole lens solution through a simple setting to make image can display in a LCD screen. The concept catch original peephole lens image and convert to digitalize and display in LCD. The LCD monitor through a simple mechanical setting to locking with original peephole lens. It about 5 min handmade without any tooling can complete all process. The Global patent number as following

Door cam uses digital camera concept to apply in the door. The camera lens needs to set in front the door to catch image, it need to take off the original peephole lens. As the door thickness issue, normally use a wire to transport digital signal to back end (LCD display). As it is replacement the original peephole lens concept, it usually use the screw setting to lock camera lens, LCD display with door. Some design need to draw a big hole for put camera lens and LCD display

Peephole camera and door camera both have many patents in the world, peephole cam patent list, TWno, #M368816. JP patent no #3160302. China patent no ZL2009 2 0133201.3and European and USA. The door cam patent, world international no, WO 00/24199, US no 2009/0059001 A1,Eu no. 86104783 and US no.2003/0095185A1. All patents had special feature to point out the function and installation.

Both are totally different products, door viewer is replacing the original peephole to new camera. The visitor will know you have a digital camera to see them. Peephole viewer is extends the original peephole lens for review. Visitor will not know who is looking for them inside.

1. Application, peephole viewer can use in the door that had peephole lens. Door cam need to replace the original lens. Since there is different door thickness, you have to make sure the thickness of your door before purchasing.

2. Installation, peephole viewer use simple mechanical design to lock the LCD display with peephole lens, it takes only 5 mins for installation. Door cam use simple mechanical design to lock the LCD display as well, but you have to make sure the wire connect with the camera clip on tightly.

3. Safety issue, the peephole viewer uses the peephole lens to catch images, the unexpected visitor won’t know if there is security to record the image from the door. The door cam use camera to catch image, if the unexpected visitor want to break your door to do something badly, it’s obviously to see there is camera there, and will break the camera first.

4. Maintenance, if the peephole viewer is broken, the user still can use the original peephole lens to see who is outside, and it’s supplied by 2 AA batteries which is easy to get. The door cam use the camera module and wire to display on the LCD, it may cause damage when you take off the wire to replace the new battery. If the camera module is broken, what will happen if there is unexpected visitor, who is going to be your security guard?

Conclusion: The Brinno Peephole camera is a vast improvement on the traditional peephole, especially for the visually impaired. With the built in motion senor, it’s also a nice improvement over previous models although retail prices are nearly identical. Resolution may be an issue for some consumers but the camera’s 1.3 MP CMOS seemed to work just fine and is more than adequate. Combined with the ease of use and installation, this reviewer gives the Brinno PHV MAC a five star rating, based upon what it’s advertised to do and definitely a nice alternative to pricier security systems. article link from
