Masonite Introduces M-Pwr Smart Doors
Masonite International Corporation has introduced its M-Pwr Smart Doors, the first residential exterior doors to integrate power, LED welcome lights, a smart lock and a Ring video doorbell into the door system, at the Consumer Electronics Show, held Jan. 5-8 in Las Vegas.
These will be available direct to consumers at retail in Home Depot stores later this year and will be marketed to security pros and homebuilders on their website. Retail pricing starts at $6,500.
Masonite M-Pwr Smart Doors feature patent-pending, Underwriters Laboratories (UL) certified technology to connect residential front doors to a home’s electrical system and wireless internet network. To ensure that the doors are “always on” in the event of a power outage, an emergency backup battery can sustain system power up to 24 hours when fully charged. The Masonite M-Pwr smartphone app enables homeowners to program and control motion-activated LED welcome lighting as well as to confirm whether the door is open or closed.
The fully integrated smart lock and video doorbell do not require individual batteries, eliminating the need for battery replacement in these devices.
