2 . The door assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first wireless communication protocol is a Bluetooth communication protocol and the second wireless communication protocol is a Wi-Fi communication protocol.

3 . The door assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first external device and the second external device are the same device.

4 . The door assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the electronic locking mechanism or the camera system communicates with the first external device or the second external device, respectively, through an intermediary device.

5 . The door assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first external device includes at least one of a first remote server, a user device, a wireless bridge, or a wireless router, and wherein the second external device includes at least one of the first remote server, a second remote server, the user device, the wireless bridge, or the wireless router.

6 . The door assembly of claim 1 , wherein the camera system includes a third transceiver configured to facilitate wireless communication via the first wireless communication protocol, and wherein the camera system is configured to operate as a wireless bridge that converts an input signal received in the second wireless communication protocol to an output signal transmitted in the first wireless communication protocol.

7 . The door assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a wireless bridge including a third transceiver configured to communicate via the first wireless communication protocol and a fourth transceiver configured to communicate via the second wireless communication protocol, wherein the wireless bridge is configured to convert an input signal received in the second wireless communication protocol to an output signal transmitted in the first wireless communication protocol.

8 . The door assembly of claim 7 , wherein the wireless bridge is separate from the door or disposed within the door.

9 . The door assembly of claim 1 , further comprising:

a first connection box embedded in the door, wherein the first connection box includes a first interface configured to selectively interface with a first connector of the electronic locking mechanism; and

a second connection box embedded in the door, wherein the second connection box is configured to selectively receive the camera system, and wherein the second connection box includes a second interface configured to selectively interface with a second connector of the camera system.

10 . The door assembly of claim 9 , further comprising:

an electric transfer hinge coupled to an edge of the door, the electric transfer hinge configured to (i) facilitate pivotally coupling the door to a door jamb and (ii) facilitate electrically coupling the electronic locking mechanism and the camera system to an external power source; and

a third connection box embedded in the door;

wherein the third connection box includes a third interface configured to selectively interface with a third connector of the electric transfer hinge; and

wherein the first connection box and the second connection box are electrically coupled to the third connection box.

11 . The door assembly of claim 1 , further comprising:

at least one of:

(i) a window embedded within the door, wherein the window at least one of (a) includes electrically-controllable shades or (b) has an electrically-controllable opacity; or

(ii) a lighting system; and

a controller configured to facilitate controlling operation of the at least one of the window or the lighting system.

12 . The door assembly of claim 11 , wherein the controller is disposed within the door.

13 . The door assembly of claim 11 , wherein the controller is separate from the door.

14 . The door assembly of claim 11 , further comprising a switch configured to facilitate selectively activating the at least one of the window or the lighting system.

15 . The door assembly of claim 14 , wherein the controller is embedded in the switch.

16 . The door assembly of claim 11 , wherein the controller includes at least one of (i) a third transceiver configured to facilitate wireless communication via the first wireless communication protocol or (ii) a fourth transceiver configured to facilitate wireless communication via the second wireless communication protocol.

17 . The door assembly of claim 16 , wherein the controller includes the third transceiver and the fourth transceiver, and wherein the controller is configured to operate as a wireless bridge that converts an input signal received in the second wireless communication protocol to an output signal transmitted in the first wireless communication protocol.

18 . A modular door assembly comprising:

a door slab;

a first selectively-accessible connection box embedded in the door slab; and

a second selectively-accessible connection box embedded in the door slab;

wherein the first selectively-accessible connection box includes a first interface configured to selectively interface with a first connector of an electronic locking mechanism;

wherein the second selectively-accessible connection box is configured to selectively receive and store a camera device within the door slab; and

wherein the second selectively-accessible connection box includes a second interface configured to selectively interface with a second connector of the camera device.

19 . The modular door assembly of claim 18 , further comprising a third selectively-accessible connection box embedded in the door slab, wherein the third selectively-accessible connection box includes a third interface configured to selectively interface with a third connector of an electric transfer hinge, and wherein the first selectively-accessible connection box and the second selectively-accessible connection box are electrically coupled to the third selectively-accessible connection box.

20 . A door assembly comprising:

a door slab;

a first electrically-controllable component coupled to or embedded within the door slab;

a second electrically-controllable component coupled to or embedded within the door slab; and

a controller operatively connected to the first electrically-controllable component, the controller configured to control operation of the first electrically-controllable component;

wherein operation of the second electrically-controllable component is controllable independent of the controller.
