I heard from a friend recently whose neighbors had a fairly serious home burglary. The loss totaled in the thousands and they were left feeling incredibly violated. The police department questioned neighbors surrounding the burglarized home and discovered that a few homeowners had received knocks on the door the same day inquiring about the need for lawn care. The investigators assume that those “lawn professionals” were actually criminals casing homes to determine who was in and who was out.
It’s a scary premise. As a kid I remember being told not to answer the door while home alone. Now, you’re left wondering if the person at the door won’t assume the house is vacant and try to break in with you inside. So what’s the safest way to handle strangers at the door? What can you do to secure your residence while you are out? What is an affordable solution? The answer lies in the IntraSonic IST 304 Video Door Intercom With Recording.
The IST 304 Video Door Recording System features the VIDOOR night vision camera and the V18 Monitor-R 7″ LCD adjustable monitor with recording. The kit also includes all the installation hardware, a 30 foot cable, and the required power supply.
But what really sets this kit apart is the ability to record the image of any visitor who rings the doorbell even when you’re not home. And if you are home, you have the ability to view and speak with the guest safely from behind the locked door. This combines the best of both worlds. Had one of the homeowners in my friend’s neighborhood had the IST 304 system, perhaps the police would have been able to apprehend the criminals and recover some of the stolen property.
Features of the IST 304:
- Hands free communication – Talk to the visitor at the door without having to open up your home, or even without pressing a button.
- The V18-R system is also a great option for commercial properties with multiple entries. You’re able to mix and match four V18-R recording monitors with four V18 standard monitors for added expandability.
- Storage for up to 240 images.
- 10 different chimes to differentiate between doors.
- The ability to monitor any camera.
- Communication between rooms and doors with the IntraSonic system.
- Adjustable brightness and contrast.
- Optional Door Release (must purchase I1000DRM separately)
- Sleek design with minimal intrusion – only protrudes 7/8″ from wall
