Doorbells and Door Sensors

There are a number of devices which can help you feel safe in your home. For example, door sensors provided by Sheffield Telecare are suitable for people who are at risk of leaving their house at unusual times of the day and night. The sensor recognizes the door has opened and sends an alert to a carer or monitoring centre for response.

There are a number of devices which can help you feel safe in your home without needing tele care. For example, a doorbell camera is a Wi-Fi-enabled smart device with motion detectors, recording capabilities, and a speaker that allows you to speak to the person at the door. You can find out more about other options by searching doorbell technology, spyhole or wireless intercom in your browser.

There are also other solutions such as wireless intercom systems which do not require access to a Wi-Fi connection or a smart device.

You can find and buy these and similar products by searching doorbell technology on your browser.
