DS2000 Door Viewer - Aluminum x Black

I recently purchased the door scope and let me tell you, this thing is a game changer. Not only does it work like a charm, but I can now see who's at my front door from a solid 7 feet away. No more guessing who's knocking, no more peeking through the blinds, this baby gives you a clear view every time. And let's talk about the price. I'm always looking for a good deal, and I've got to say, this door scope was definitely worth every penny. It's a steal for the quality and performance you're getting. Now, a little heads up for those of you who are handy like me, you'll need a 2-3/8" diameter hole saw to get this thing installed. But don't worry, the process was a breeze and only took me 20 minutes from start to finish. I was in and out of the hardware store in no time! Another thing I love about this door scope is that it seems to be well insulated. I live in a pretty chilly climate and I was worried about the cold air coming through, but nope! This baby is tight and doesn't transfer any of that unwanted chill. And last but not least, I gotta say, I'm a fan of the color. It's sleek and modern, and it just looks good on my front door. All in all, I'm beyond happy with my purchase and I highly recommend this door scope to anyone looking for a reliable and stylish solution to seeing who's at their front door. Trust me, you won't regret it. Five stars all the way!

Had to rethink the way I look through a peephole. No longer would I put my face up against my door, and gaze out with one eye to see if I could make out a figure on the other side. The adjustment for me was learning where to stand to see who was out there. True, the image is reversed, but I sure got a clear and distinct view of the person outside. I saw reviews that cautioned you could see inside from outside. I'm glad I ignored those reviews. Haven't found that to be the case. The image is projected through a prism, and there is nothing distinguishing that can be seen from outside. Had to adjust my lighting so I wouldn't be backlit. All in all, a very fine product.

The image is very clear and you can see from at least 10 feet back as you approach the door. It is quick and easy to install but you will need a 2/38” hole drill. (I got mine at Harbor Freight for $15). My only regret is not having one sooner.

We bought this for our new door as it didn't have windows or a peep hole. It provides a fantastic, albeit reversed (nothing to do about that) view of the other side of your door. My only complaint is that I used the provided sticker template for drilling my holes and checked and double checked the sticker alignment with a bubble level and ensured it was correct, and the installed scope still provides a slightly tilted image. I'm not sure what went wrong here but it bothers me slightly. Otherwise, we are very happy with it.

I installed one of these for a neighbor and we are both impressed with it. This one is built sturdy with an aluminum housing (some of them have plastic housings). The image produced on the inside of the door is crisp and clear. Unfortunately my pics don't do it justice. The images were too bright for my camera to capture I guess. Performance wise, you get about what you get from a standard peephole. The difference is that you don't put your face up against the door to view the outside. Rather you stand back a bit. It needs to be viewed almost straight on, not at an angle. At two or three feet back you see the same details that you would with a standard peephole. At ten or even twelve feet back you can see if someone is at the door but probably not who it is. Naturally, after dark it's going to depend on how good the lighting is around the outside of the door, just like with a standard peephole. Something to know is that these things reversed the image. Right is on the left and left is on the right. In my opinion that isn't a thing. I don't care. This is a fun alternative to a standard peephole and I recommend it!

Finding the right size hole saw was not easy because it’s not a standard size. Installation was easy as far as the device is concerned (using a hole saw is not for the faint of heart - I dinged my door pretty badly trying to get it started). We dig the easy view of our doorstep without having to press your eye against a small peephole. However, after installation I was disappointed to see a giant scratch across the lens. It doesn’t disrupt the view but it always bugs me because I see the flaw.

I got this for my aging mom. You can see the person on the other side of the door from 10' away without putting your face up to the door. Doesn't work as well in the nighttime but daytime is perfect.

View is like looking at a screen with polarized sun glasses, if you are at the wrong angle you can't see anything. For me it's great during the daytime. I can see it from nearly 20 feet away. There is some distortion which is more noticeable at night. Only draw back is it puts a huge hole in the door. There is no going back one you do this.
