SimpliSafe Unveils $299 Entryway Kit Featuring Video Doorbell Pro, Available at Best Buy


A Special Bundle for Doorbell Lovers To Jump Start Your Home Security

BOSTON, Oct. 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SimpliSafe®, maker of award-winning home security systems, announces the release of a brand new Entryway Kit, available now at Best Buy. Built around SimpliSafe’s gorgeous Video Doorbell Pro as its centerpiece, the Entryway Kit has your back from the front door to your inner sanctuary, providing a simple and incredibly affordable path to home protection.

“Video doorbells feel really good to use. I love being able to see my entryway from anywhere in the world as if I were actually at the door. It really offers peace of mind,” said SimpliSafe CMO Melina Engel. “But I like knowing that if an intruder actually breaks into my house that I’m still protected. That’s where the value of our highly competitive Entryway Kit comes in.”

With an ultra-wide field of view, 1080p HD video quality, and two-way audio, the SimpliSafe Video Doorbell Pro allows you to see and talk to anyone at your door. If an intruder crosses the threshold, SimpliSafe's home security system kicks in, blaring a 95db siren, alerting the 24/7 professional monitoring center, and dispatching police if necessary.1 "It's a one-two punch," said Engel.

SimpliSafe's modular, customizable design means the Entryway Kit can easily be expanded to include any of the company's arsenal of sensors — from panic buttons to smoke detectors — as well as smart home must-haves, like indoor SimpliCam cameras and the new SimpliSafe Smart Lock.

The Entryway Security Kit: Video Doorbell Pro + Door Alarm is now available exclusively at select Best Buy locations and online at bestbuy.com.
