Wired or battery doorbell?
A battery or Wi-Fi doorbell can be fine for a renter or a quick DIY job. If you want one that doesn't need charging, doesn't drop off the Wi-Fi and records reliably, wire it in.
Battery or plug-in Wi-Fi
Quick to fit, but the battery needs charging and the picture depends on your Wi-Fi reaching the front door. Fine for a renter.
2-wire video intercom
Uses two wires to the door station, so it can often reuse the cable from an old doorbell or intercom. Good for existing homes where new cable is hard to run.
PoE IP video intercom
Runs on a network cable from a PoE switch, which powers the door station too. Best for new builds and homes already wired with data cabling.

How we install it
Check the door and the cable path
We look at where the door station goes, where the indoor screen goes, and whether there's an old doorbell or intercom cable we can reuse.Fixed quote in writing
You get one price for the kit, cabling and setup before any work starts.Install and hide the cable
We mount the door station and screen, run the cable through the wall or ceiling, and seal the outdoor station against the weather.App setup and handover
We connect it to your Wi-Fi, set up the app on your phones, test calls and door release if fitted, and show you how it all works.
Doorbells, gates and apartments

A video doorbell at the front door with a screen in the hallway or kitchen, and calls to your phone when you're out.
Gates and keypads

Questions we get asked
How much does video doorbell installation cost in Auckland?
Hikvision video intercom kits start from $578 incl. GST on our shop. Installation depends on the cable run and the wall, so we give you a fixed written quote for the kit, cabling and setup before we start.
Can you reuse my old doorbell or intercom wiring?
Often, yes. 2-wire kits are designed to run over two existing wires, so an old doorbell or intercom cable can usually be reused. We check it first and tell you if it needs replacing.
Can I answer the door from my phone?
Yes. The Wi-Fi monitor kits send calls to the app on your phone as well as the indoor screen, so you can see and talk to visitors when you're not home.
Is a wired doorbell better than a battery one?
For most homes, yes. A wired doorbell doesn't need charging and doesn't rely on your Wi-Fi reaching the front door. A battery doorbell is fine for a renter or a quick fix.
Do you install video doorbells for new builds?
Yes. On a new build we run the cable before the walls are lined, which is much cheaper than retrofitting. See our new build pre-wire checklist.
