HKC Security has announced the launch of its new Smart Video Doorbell, designed to give homeowners building or renovating their property a smarter, more integrated approach to front door security.
As self-builders increasingly look to future-proof their homes with connected technology, the HKC Smart Video Doorbell offers a seamless way to incorporate video monitoring, intelligent alerts and remote access into a wider home security system from day one.
The device delivers crisp 1080p video with a wide 154° field of view and integrated night vision, ensuring clear visibility at all times. Full two-way audio with echo cancellation enables natural, real-time communication, allowing homeowners to speak to visitors, manage deliveries or monitor activity via the SecureComm App, whether they are on-site or away.
Powered by cloud-based AI, the system can distinguish between people, vehicles, pets and packages, helping to reduce unnecessary alerts and ensuring users are only notified when it matters most. This makes it particularly valuable for self-build projects, where properties may be unoccupied during phases of construction.
A key advantage for self-builders is the doorbell’s ability to integrate directly with HKC alarm systems and SecureComm Cloud, creating a unified and scalable security solution. Rather than adding standalone devices over time, homeowners can build a fully connected system that evolves with their property.
Flexibility is central to the design, with both rechargeable battery operation via USB-C and the option to connect to a standard bell transformer. This makes it easy to install at different stages of a build, whether as a temporary solution during construction or as a permanent fixture.
An included wireless plug-in chime ensures instant indoor alerts without the need for additional purchases, while secure cloud storage removes reliance on local SD cards.
With an IP65-rated housing and built-in tamper detection, the HKC Smart Doorbell is built to withstand both the elements and the demands of active building sites.
Paul Fitzgerald, Managing Director of HKC, said: “For self-builders, security and connectivity are no longer afterthoughts, they’re part of the core design. The HKC Smart Video Doorbell makes it easy to integrate intelligent front door monitoring into a wider system, helping homeowners create a smarter, more secure living environment from the very beginning.”
