Security Peephole

Okay folks, I didn't want to recommend a product to you until I reeeeeally knew for sure all I could know about it, so I got myself what has to be the coolest and best peephole in the Universe from the very cool, very nice guys from Security Peephole. They came to install Saturday morning, were quick and efficient, made sure I knew all I wanted to know, cleaned up, and offered to come to our next meeting (which will be soon, I promise). They will have a peephole on hand for you to see.

I'm including pictures; I promise I don't always look so bad; it was early. :o)
Click here and it should take you to their official brochure (which has much better pictures than mine!)

In the first one, you can see the size of the peephole. My thought was, "WOW, that's huge!" My second thought was, "That's the coolest thing ever!" It's so easy to see through--you don't have to put your eye up to it and squint to see a tiny little image. You can see who's there from several feet away (great for kids--my 2-year-old can even identify people through it, short people like me, people whose vision may not be great, etc.). It's like looking through a video monitor:




You can see the street in front of the house and a huge chunk of the front yard very clearly:


This is what someone looks like standing outside the door. I couldn't get my camera to focus very well; it was a lot clearer in real life, but you get the idea:

And here's how it looks on the outside of the door. If I had never seen one of these before and approached a door that had one, I would think I was on camera or something. That in itself might be enough to deter someone trying to get in:

I think this is a great product! If you would like to have one installed at your home, contact Jeremy and Scott at securitypeephole@cox.net
