Anytime you’re dealing with wiring and electricity, you really need to know exactly what you’re doing and have the tools to do it properly. Otherwise, you could end up damaging your new equipment, your existing wiring, or creating a fire hazard if it is not installed properly. So unless you truly know what you’re doing, you should probably opt for professional installation, especially if your new security system will need to be hardwired. If you choose a DIY wireless security system, most on the market today are fairly intuitive and easy to install. And, many of them don’t require any special tools or knowledge to get the job done. Whether you’re a senior or simply buying a security system for a senior, I’d recommend Vivint.

Installation is a little tricky, however; we had to install not just the doorbell, but also a separate device inside our existing doorbell's chime box.

The enclosure holds the 4 AA batteries that power the device, while the tiny ringer is no bigger than most USB power adapters and plugs straight into any wall socket. It doesn’t require any wire connection between the two, so it is more landlord friendly than wired models. A microSD card slot lets you store video recordings. Forget about motion detection triggering the doorbell cam unless you add a Spotcam Camera to your setup. A SpotCam app available for iOS and Android connects to the bell and ringer over the SpotCam cloud service, with only a short delay between someone pushing the bell and you being able to view the live image on your phone. It was about 5 seconds in our testing. Video quality was good, though there was a noticeable and somewhat frustrating 1 or 2 second delay in the video, which made having a conversation with the person at the door hard. The basic level of service for the SpotCam Doorbell is free, but there’s no online storage without paying $2. 95 per month or $29/year for 180 days of storage to $4.
