Free to start Any door, gate or entrance

Print an intercom.
Stick it anywhere.

Dorbel is a QR code, not a box on the wall. Stick it on the front door, the gate, the side entrance, the granny flat, the holiday let. Visitors scan and your phone gets a notification, wherever you are. Nothing to wire, nothing to charge, nothing for them to install.

Ring the intercom

Scan to reach the resident
Wherever you are

Your door reaches you, wherever you are.

You don't have to be standing behind it. Wherever you are, whoever turns up, they reach you on your phone.

No intercom at the entrance

A gate, a block where the buzzer goes nowhere, a side door nobody hears. Visitors get a way to reach you instead of turning away.

Out all day at work

At your desk, on the train or across town, couriers, tradies and visitors still reach your phone instead of a locked door.

Shop or office sitting empty

Lunch breaks, work-from-home days, a quiet stockroom out back. Customers and deliveries get through to whoever's on call.

Holiday lets and Airbnbs

Guests get a private line to the host for the whole stay, with no personal number to hand over or take back afterwards.

Sound familiar?

The problem isn't you. It's the doorbell.

Most people are quietly putting up with something that has a stupidly simple fix.

No way to reach you

A visitor at the gate, a neighbour in an emergency, a tradie at the wrong entrance, and no way to get hold of you.

No doorbell at all

Renting? Old wiring? Strata rules? Plenty of homes and apartments have no working intercom or doorbell at all.

Giving out your number

You want to be reachable at your door, but not forever. Once a stranger has your number, you can't take it back.

The fix

An intercom you print, not one you install

Dorbel is a QR code that turns any entrance into an intercom, using the phone already in your visitor's pocket. No wiring, no batteries, and nothing for them to install. They just scan.

Register your address and print. Stick it on your door, gate or letterbox, anywhere a visitor would look.

Visitor scans, you get notified

They point their phone at the code. No app, no signup. The Dorbel app pings you the instant they ring, wherever you are.

Someone's at your doorUnit 12 · just now

Chat, talk or video. Your call.

Start with text. Switch to voice or video whenever you want, on every plan. Answer right in the Dorbel app. No numbers shared, ever.

The whole setup

Visitors need nothing.
You get the Dorbel app.

Zero friction for the person at the door. A proper home on your phone for the person inside, and your messages app stays clean.

At the door

Your visitor scans. That's it.

It opens in their phone's browser. No app, no login, no account. The same on every phone, every time.

  • Nothing to download, ever
  • Works on any phone with a camera
  • The link expires when they leave
On your phone

The Dorbel app is your home base.

Every ring, every dorbel, every setting in one place. The upgrade over a stray text or email.

  • Real-time push the instant someone rings, with no email lag
  • Every dorbel, person and chat history together in one place
  • Fine-tune notifications and exactly who gets alerted
Why a web app

An app from the store can ask for your whole phone. Dorbel can't.

Your visitors still install nothing. That never changes. You add Dorbel to your Home Screen in a few taps, and because it runs inside the browser's sandbox, most of what a normal app can ask for simply isn't there to ask for.

A real notification on a real lock screen. No app store involved, and it wakes your phone exactly like anything else would.

The last two rows are identical, and that's the point. Telling you someone's at the door, and letting you speak to them, are the only two things Dorbel needs. Everything above them is something a web app can't ask for even if it wanted to.

See it in action

The whole thing fits on a phone

No dashboard to learn, no panel to mount. Visitors scan in their browser with nothing to install, and you answer in the Dorbel app.

Visitor view

They scan, then tap your dorbel. That's the entire setup for them.

GPS confirms they're actually at your door, so a screenshot of your code is useless from across town.

Everyone who should know, knows

Add housemates, family or staff. When someone rings, all of you are notified at once. First to respond takes it, the rest see it's handled.

One code for a whole building

Apartments and offices share a single QR. Visitors pick the unit; only that resident is reached. No building-wide rollout, no property manager required.

Mute on your terms

Heads-down, on holiday, or off the clock? Mute until a date, or indefinitely, and unmute in a tap.

Built for real life

Works for your situation, whatever it is

No two doors are the same. Dorbel fits all of them: renters, homeowners and businesses alike.

Good questions

The bits people always ask

Do I need to download anything?
Your visitors never install anything. They scan your QR code and it opens in their phone's browser, with no app and no account. You and your household get the Dorbel app (iOS and Android) so you're always reachable, with real-time alerts and your full chat history in one place.
Does it work if I'm not home?
Yes. When someone rings, the Dorbel app notifies you wherever you are. Answer with a message, voice or video, or let them leave a note.
Couldn't someone just scan a photo of my code?
No. Dorbel checks the visitor is physically at your door using their location, within about 10 metres. A screenshot from across town simply won't connect.
Where is my video stored?
Nowhere. Video and audio are encrypted end to end between the visitor's phone and yours. They usually travel directly; if a network blocks that, the encrypted stream passes through a relay that can't decrypt it. Nothing is recorded, so there's nothing on our end to store, breach or hand over.
What happens when I move?
The code stays with the property. Print a fresh one for your new place in a couple of minutes. Moving into a home that already has a Dorbel? Claim it in about 30 seconds.
Is my home address private?
Yes. For a house we keep only its map coordinates and a one-way fingerprint of the address, never the street address itself. In an apartment building we keep the building's address, which every resident shares, plus your unit number. Visitors only ever see the label you choose, like "Unit 12".
Your door. Working. In 5 minutes.
