The Lorex Doorbell Camera is great for anyone who prefers a hardwired system that’s also completely DIY. That meant that we could secure our house without having to break the bank.
Hardwired Setup
In general, we prefer hardwired video doorbell systems for one simple reason: no batteries are required. Unfortunately, buying a wired system often means hiring a professional installer. However, Lorex is completely DIY. We connected a few wires, connected the panel, and we were done. It’s hardwired without the hassle!
Sleek Design
The Lorex Video Doorbell is small and fairly unobtrusive, measuring 4″ x 1.7″ and only 1″ wide. That means it doesn’t make our front door look cluttered. In fact, it doesn’t look any different from a traditional doorbell. The panels are stylish black and silver, with rounded features inside the rectangular housing. All in all, it tells visitors that we love our technology, but we also love that it blends well with our signature style.
