If you’re looking for a doorbell with added security but one that is still easy to use, this M&S Systems Intercom Door Station piece is an excellent replacement for your typical doorbell. While a regular doorbell features a button on one side of the door with a ringing speaker on the other side, this doorbell and its system allow you to interact with whoeveris at your door via intercom.

You will be able to speak to the person on the other side, letting you know who is ringing before you answer. This intercom has a nice look and includes a lighted doorbellfor easy use. With just two wires rather than four or more used on other models, it’s also fairly easy to install.       

This doorbell is perfect for seniors who might live alone or would like an extra layer of security for any visitors at their door. It isn’t as foolproof as a doorbell system with a camera, but it’s also better for seniors who don’t want to fuss with the extra setup or technology that comes with a more enhanced system.
