Yeah, the call box in general is just not a great system in my experience. I often just tell guests and delivery people to text or call me when they get there, which works for me because my apartment is very close to the lobby. It’s just easier than hoping they figure out how to use the call box and follow my directions to get to my apartment.



Yeah these call boxes are simply awful. That's why I was excited about Doorport, to have something better.


one could put a sign on the door with the number to call + qr code.
