Hi, anyone have any good self hosted solution for a doorbell camera? What I need is to have the option to look at who is at the door and be able to actuate a lock (relay operated). I have a cheap Chinese brand solution, but it uses an unknown cloud solution and is very unreliable. A phone app would be fine, but if there’s a standalone tablet, that’s even better.

    Not exactly what you asked for, but I went with Eufy with local storage. There is a home base so everything is stored here and not in the cloud. Costs a bit more but gives me peace of mind.

    Downside is that it won’t work if my internet or power is out, but that happens once a year, max.

    For door I’d go with Yale with the hub to lock and unlock remotely.
    Don’t know of a combined solution, sadly.
