Professional Video Doorbell Installation
Skip the wobbly DIY install. Total Techs hardwires video doorbells professionally — for homes, businesses, and commercial buildings. Ring, Nest, SkyBell, Aiphone commercial intercoms, and integrated systems that work with your existing camera or access control.
Video Doorbells, Done Right
Video doorbells are great when they work. They’re frustrating when they don’t — flaky Wi-Fi connections, dead batteries, delayed notifications, choppy video, falling off the wall. Most of those problems trace back to bad installation.
Professional installation means proper power (hardwired, not battery), strong Wi-Fi signal at the install point, and the right model for your situation. For homes, that often means a Ring, Nest, or SkyBell. For businesses, it usually means a commercial-grade Aiphone or 2N intercom that integrates with your access control.
We install video doorbells for residential customers across the Magic Valley and commercial doorbell/intercom systems for businesses, apartments, gated communities, and access-controlled buildings.

What You Get
Residential Smart Doorbells

Commercial Intercoms
Aiphone, 2N, and other commercial-grade intercoms with high-quality video, PoE power, integration with access control, and durable construction for commercial environments.
Two-Way Talk
Talk to visitors from anywhere. Tell delivery drivers where to leave packages. Verify visitors before unlocking the door. Useful for both residential and commercial.
Mobile Notifications
Instant notifications when someone rings the doorbell or motion is detected at the door. View live video, listen, and respond — even when you’re not home.
Access Control Integration
For commercial: integrate the intercom with access control so a remote user can release the door for visitors. Replaces traditional intercoms with modern video-enabled systems.
Cloud or Local Recording
Most consumer doorbells use cloud recording subscriptions. Commercial systems can record locally to your existing NVR for unified video management with your security cameras.

Common Questions
QWhat’s the difference between residential and commercial video doorbells?
Residential doorbells (Ring, Nest) are designed for home use — Wi-Fi only, plastic construction, cloud subscriptions, single-user typically. Commercial intercoms (Aiphone, 2N) are PoE-powered, metal construction, multiple-user/multi-unit capable, integrate with access control, and use local recording. Different price points for different use cases.
QDo you install Ring and Nest doorbells?
Yes — both are popular residential choices. Ring offers more features at lower price; Nest integrates well with Google ecosystems. We install whichever fits your situation and existing smart home setup.
QCan you integrate the doorbell with our existing camera system?
Depends on the doorbell brand and your camera system. Some commercial doorbells use ONVIF and integrate with most professional NVRs. Consumer doorbells (Ring, Nest) typically stay in their own apps. We help you choose for your goals.
QWhat about apartment buildings or gated communities?
Commercial intercom systems are designed exactly for this. Multi-button entry panels at the front door, individual unit phone interfaces, ability to remotely unlock the front gate. We install these for multi-unit residential buildings and gated communities across Southern Idaho.
QDoes the doorbell need its own internet?
Wi-Fi doorbells need decent Wi-Fi signal at the front door — sometimes that requires an additional access point near the entry. PoE-powered commercial doorbells use the same network cable for power and data, so they only need network connectivity, not Wi-Fi.
