Be careful with the peephole. When I lived in Arizona, the local law enforcement instructed residents not to look directly through the peephole or replace it with one that has a one way mirror type lens. Evidently it wasn't uncommon for gang members to choose a random house, ring the doorbell, stand to the side and look for the light to change in the peephole when the resident looked through it. They would either shoot through the door or kick the door in when someone was standing in front of it. Look for a peephole where the lighting coming through the hole doesn't shift when someone is standing infront of it.
