I've got that ring doorbell so I can see and talk to who's at the door, along with blink cameras I installed in the parking lot aimed at my front door and upstairs windows. When I moved in, I replaced the door locks and installed a manual deadbolt. I am considering an automatic deadbolt to allow my grocery delivery to come upstairs and put my food away with a good tip for their service. Once they leave, I can bolt the door remotely and say goodbye through the ring doorbell. Also, useful when I get packages and mail.

Just take things slow and easy @A myHIVteam Member. you do not want to make things worse.

Are there stairs to your home, or inside your home that are the challenge?

Hi. I hope you’re having a good day. I had an idea to share for your home. If I understand the arrangement properly, you normally must go down stairs to open your door. If that’s correct, I believe you will need a doorbell camera, and a remote deadbolt. Both are affordable. That would allow you to see who’s at your door, and let them in, without fighting the stairs. I retired as a designer for a military contractor, and like to think I can find solutions, if I understand the challenges.
