IntraSonic Door Camera & Intercom With Image Recording

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.

IntraSonic IST 304 Video Door Intercom with Recording KitThe 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

The IntraSonic IST 304 Video Door Intercom With Recording Kit is an inexpensive door security solution and requires no costly monthly monitoring like professional systems.

Kocom 1 KIC-304 and 4 KIC-300S Package

Creating a custom home doesn’t have to be expensive. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from the constant renovation of a near seventy year old home, it’s that some of the most memorable projects aren’t the big-ticket jobs. Sure, I love the remodeled kitchen, but the small DIY projects that my husband and I have tackled ourselves to save money tend to be more special.

With that in mind, I challenge you to think twice about hiring a professional to install that much desired home intercom system. We’ve created a simplified intercom package designed for easy installation and straightforward use. The Kocom 1 KIC-304 and 4 KIC-300S Package includes one Master Station and four Room Stations suitable for most homes and installation is a breeze.

Home Intercom Systems for Safety, Security and Convenience

Fifteen years ago, one may have questioned whether or not the home intercom system was going to last the ages. That’s because fifteen years ago, the more popular choice for home communication was the telephone system. Many large homes or estates chose to install landline, phone paging systems throughout their residences. At that time, multiple phone lines were a must, with every teenage girl needing hers and every home computer depending on it for the internet. Why wouldn’t you link your whole home to the telephone system?

As you read this today (likely perusing the internet without use of a dial-up connection) you are well aware of the fate of the home phone. A thing of the past, less than 50% of homes today currently feature a landline. What a difference a decade makes! As it turns out, the wired home intercom system was built to last, after all.

Today's models have even more sophisticated features like color monitors and touch-screens!
