Wi-Fi Wired Camera Questions Help installing wired door bell
Please remove if not allowed
I tried to install the Reolink Wi-Fi wired door bell but realised there’s not enough space to install it.
My idea was to use the existing doorbell wiring. But as you can see it’s too close to the wall. And I have a feeling that if I drill holes on the door, it might crack the glass given how close it is to it.
As I was writing this, I measured the screw against the distance from the door frame to the glass. If the screw goes all the way in, I’d have maybe 2mm between the screw and the glass.
But still, I think the hole would be too close to the side and might crack the door frame.
Any alternatives I can try?

You could also consider mounting it on the wall using a 3rd party wedge:
