Why choose a video doorbell?
Enhanced security
At its core, a video doorbell is the first line of defence for your home. Unlike traditional doorbells, video doorbells are equipped with high-definition cameras that allow you to see and communicate with whoever is at your door, whether they’re in your backyard or on the other side of the world. This visibility can deter potential intruders, who are less likely to target homes with visible security systems.
Real-time alerts and monitoring
Video doorbells keep you informed with instant notifications sent directly to your smartphone when motion is detected or someone rings the doorbell. This feature ensures you’re always aware of what’s happening at your front door, so you can monitor deliveries, greet visitors or interact with couriers, wherever you are.
Convenience and accessibility
Beyond security, video doorbells offer unparalleled convenience. Whether you’re busy with household chores, managing a hectic work schedule or enjoying family time, you can respond to visitors at your leisure without interrupting your activities. Plus, features such as night vision, live video streaming and recorded footage provide round-the-clock monitoring and accessibility.
Smart home integration
Video doorbells integrate seamlessly with other smart home devices, creating a cohesive ecosystem that enhances both security and convenience. From triggering outdoor lights when motion is detected to sending live video feeds to your smart TV, these integrations offer a level of automation and functionality that traditional security systems cannot match.
Collect evidence
In the unfortunate event of a security incident, video doorbells can provide invaluable evidence. Recorded footage can help identify perpetrators, understand the sequence of events and potentially assist law enforcement in their investigation.
Parcel protection
With the rise of online shopping, parcel theft has become a growing concern. Video doorbells can alert you the moment a delivery arrives and monitor your parcel until you can collect it, significantly reducing the risk of theft.
When you choose a video doorbell from AKSA Security, you’re not just choosing a product, you’re investing in a comprehensive solution designed to improve the safety, convenience and efficiency of your home security. With our expert advice and support, together with the advanced features of Ring and EZVIZ video doorbells, you can rest assured that your home is well-protected and connected, no matter where life takes you.
Ring Video Doorbell features and benefits
Features and Benefits of Ring Doorbell
High-definition video quality: The latest generation of Ring Video Doorbell features 1080p HD video, ensuring you get crisp, clear footage of your home’s entrance, day or night. This superior video quality is essential for identifying visitors, monitoring package deliveries and even deterring potential intruders with your visible presence.
Customisable motion zones: One of Ring’s standout features is its customisable motion zones, which allow you to specify exactly which areas of your property will trigger motion alerts. This targeted detection minimises false alarms and ensures that you only receive notifications for important movements, such as someone approaching your door or a package being delivered.
Improved audio quality: The improved audio quality in the new video doorbell ensures that communication between you and your visitors is clearer than ever. Whether you’re giving instructions to a delivery person or greeting guests, the enhanced two-way audio makes it feel like you’re there, even when you’re not.
Night vision: Ring’s advanced night vision capabilities ensure your home is monitored around the clock. The updated night vision feature provides clearer, more detailed images in low light conditions, giving you peace of mind all night long.
Quick replies: The Quick Replies feature acts as an answering machine for your door, offering pre-recorded messages to answer visitors when you can’t answer the door yourself. It’s particularly useful when you’re busy or away from your phone, ensuring you never miss a visitor.
Ring Protect subscription: With a Ring Protect subscription, your videos are stored on your Ring account so you can review, share and save important footage. This feature is essential for recording all activity at your front door, providing evidence in the event of a security incident, and sharing moments with friends and family.
Easy installation: Ring has simplified the installation process, making it quick and easy to set up your video doorbell. Whether you choose to hardwire your device for continuous charging or use the rechargeable battery, you can have your Ring Video Doorbell up and running in minutes.
Integration with smart home devices: The Ring Video Doorbell integrates seamlessly with a wide range of smart home devices to enhance the overall security and convenience of your home. From triggering smart lights when motion is detected to viewing live video feeds on your smart TV, Ring’s compatibility with other devices adds an extra layer of functionality to your smart home ecosystem.
When you choose the Ring Video Doorbell from AKSA Security, you’re not just enhancing the security of your home, you’re embracing a new standard of convenience and connectivity.

EZVIZ DB2 Video Doorbell Overview
Features and benefits of EZVIZ Doorbell
Exceptional value for money: The EZVIZ DB2 is renowned for its excellent value, offering a comprehensive set of features at a price that is hard to beat. This makes it an attractive option for those making their first foray into smart home security, or anyone looking for a high-quality video doorbell without the premium price tag.
Versatile performance options: To meet the diverse needs of homeowners, the EZVIZ DB2 can be powered either through the existing doorbell wiring for continuous operation or through its built-in rechargeable battery. This flexibility ensures that the DB2 can be installed in a variety of locations to suit different home configurations.
Inclusive chime: Unlike many of its competitors, the EZVIZ DB2 comes bundled with a chime, eliminating the need to purchase one separately and simplifying the setup process. The inclusion of the chime not only adds value but also ensures that you never miss a visitor, even when your smartphone is out of reach.
MicroSD slot for local storage: The DB2 allows continuous video recording and storage without the need for a monthly subscription thanks to its microSD slot. This feature offers homeowners a cost-effective way to store footage locally, providing peace of mind and convenience when managing recorded clips.
Advanced detection and notification features: Equipped with a 2K resolution camera and a 176-degree field of view, the EZVIZ DB2 provides a wide and clear view of your doorstep. Features such as infrared night vision, human figure detection and adjustable sensitivity settings for motion alerts keep you informed of any activity, day or night.
Easy to use app and setup: Setting up the EZVIZ DB2 is straightforward, with clear instructions provided by the EZVIZ app for both iOS and Android devices. The app not only guides you through the installation process but also serves as a central hub for managing your device settings, viewing live feeds and reviewing recorded footage.
Design and aesthetics: While the DB2’s design is more utilitarian, focusing on functionality and durability, it’s built to withstand the elements and provide reliable service. The unit’s bulky size is a small compromise for the features and value it offers.
Areas for improvement: While the EZVIZ DB2 sets a high bar in terms of value and functionality, it lacks some of the premium features found on higher-end models, such as facial recognition and adjustable motion detection zones. However, for many users, the balance of price, performance and practicality will make it an unbeatable choice.
Choosing AKSA Security’s EZVIZ DB2 means choosing a video doorbell that combines performance, value and ease of use. Our team is ready to help you integrate this powerful tool into your home security setup, ensuring that you enjoy all the benefits it has to offer without any hassle. Whether you prioritise affordability, simplicity or the freedom of local storage, the EZVIZ DB2 is ready to meet and exceed your expectations, making it a worthy contender in the smart home security arena.
