GoKawiilCNET security tester outlines four DIY devices for front-door protection
A CNET home-security tester recommends four categories of DIY devices to secure a front door and porch: smart locks, video doorbells, and two additional unnamed tools covered later in the piece. The locks offer remote control, temporary guest passes, digital wallet keys, keypads or fingerprint readers, and auto-locking, while video doorbells provide smart alerts about porch activity. All the recommended gear is self-installable and doesn't require a monitored security subscription.
