Video doorbell installation issue (cross-post)

(Also posted in Home decorating and home repairs)


You can’t see who is at our front door from anywhere in our house without opening the door. The door is mostly frosted glass and has no peep hole. So I’d like to install a video doorbell.

After fair bit of research, I want to use the sky bell. But it is round and my current doorbell is rectangular. The size means that the old screw holes would be left exposed. Our exterior is faux stucco so I think it would be difficult to get the texture to match up.

I went to home depot but couldn’t find any sort of trim piece that would cover the screw holes. I was thinking sort of like a ceiling medallion if that makes any sense. Does anyone know if such a thing exists and what it would properly be called?


Here’s what the doorbell looks like




And here’s what my exisiing doorbell looks like posting mostly so you can see the exterior wall texture issue.




And here‘s the skybell website. I can’t find any trim piece on there that would address the issue.
