Video Door Entry Systems
Video door entry systems have become a popular choice for both residential and light commercial properties. With around one in five UK homes now using a smart doorbell or video-enabled entry device, demand continues to grow across new builds, refurbishments, and retrofit upgrades.
For both homeowners and trade professionals, these systems offer more than just convenience. They provide enhanced security, access control, and integration with wider smart home or security networks. At City Plumbing, we stock a wide range of video door entry systems, smart doorbells, and compatible security accessories from leading brands, ensuring you can find reliable, compliant solutions for every project.
Types of Video Door Entry and Security Products Available
Whether you’re upgrading your home or working on a multi-unit development, there are multiple product options to suit different site requirements and budgets.
Smart Video Doorbells
Smart video doorbells combine a doorbell, camera, and two-way audio system in one unit. Connected via Wi-Fi, they allow users to:
- View live footage via smartphone or tablet
- Speak to visitors remotely
- Receive motion-triggered alerts
- Store or review recorded footage (subject to subscription and settings)
These are ideal for homes of all sizes, apartments, and small offices where a simple, app-based solution is preferred over a full hardwired intercom system.
Wired Video Door Entry Systems
For larger homes, blocks of flats, or properties requiring more robust access control, wired systems provide:
- Internal monitors or handsets
- Dedicated external camera panels
- More stable connectivity
- Integration with electric strikes or magnetic locks
These systems are typically installed during new build or major renovation works, where cabling routes can be planned in advance.
Spotlight Cameras and External CCTV Units
To complement door entry systems, many homes now also include:
- LED spotlight cameras with motion detection
- Wide-angle outdoor security cameras
- Integrated sirens and deterrent lighting
These provide enhanced perimeter protection and are often installed alongside door entry systems to create a complete security solution.
Solar Panels and Power Accessories
For properties where hardwiring is impractical, compatible solar panels can maintain battery charge on selected devices, reducing maintenance and improving reliability.
Motion Detectors and Security Sensors
Additional PIR motion detectors and smart sensors can be integrated into broader security ecosystems, supporting:
- Zoned alerts
- Automation triggers
- Enhanced site coverage

Compliance and Installation Considerations
When installing video door entry systems, compliance and proper installation are essential.
Installers should ensure:
- Electrical connections comply with current UK Building Regulations and BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations)
- Any integration with door release mechanisms is safely installed and correctly rated
- Data protection considerations are addressed where recording is enabled
- Fire compartmentation is not compromised during cable routing in flats or HMOs
As with all electrical installations, appropriate certification and testing should be completed where required.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these systems compliant with current UK electrical regulations?
Yes, video door entry systems must be installed in accordance with BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations) for hardwired setups. Most branded systems meet UKCA or CE marking requirements, but compliance depends on correct installation by a competent person.
Are they suitable for new build and retrofit installations?
Absolutely. Battery-powered and Wi-Fi-enabled smart doorbells are ideal for retrofits with minimal disruption, while wired systems are commonly specified for new builds, apartment blocks, and major refurbishments.
Do they meet fire safety requirements for flats and HMOs?
Yes, but installers must ensure fire-stopping and compartmentation are maintained when running cables. Installations must comply with Building Regulations, including Approved Document B where applicable.
Do systems comply with GDPR when video recording is enabled?
Manufacturers provide GDPR-compliant functionality, but property owners or operators are responsible for signage, data handling, and storage policies that align with UK GDPR requirements.
Are units weatherproof for the UK climate?
Most external doorbell and camera units are designed with appropriate IP ratings for outdoor use. Always check product specifications for suitability in exposed locations.
Is there trade account pricing available?
Yes. City Plumbing offers competitive trade account pricing across a wide range of electrical and security products, helping installers stay competitive while maintaining margins.
