Door Entry & Intercom Systems

Audio and video entry systems that let occupants see and speak to a caller before releasing the door.

Overview

Door entry is the point where security meets everyday convenience. It has to be quick for the people who belong there and deliberate for everyone else.

We install audio and video entry systems for single dwellings, apartment blocks and commercial receptions, including replacements for ageing panels where the existing wiring can often be reused.

What this covers

Audio and video door entry systems
Single-dwelling and multi-occupancy panels
Handset, monitor and app-based answering
Trade and postal access arrangements
Panel replacement on existing wiring where practical
Integration with access control and CCTV
Gate and vehicle entrance intercoms
Nameplate and directory configuration

Not sure what you need?

Describe the property and what has gone wrong before. A short conversation usually settles whether a site visit is the right next step.

Why it matters

What you get from doing this properly.

01

See before you open

Video entry turns an unknown caller into a known one before the door is released.

02

Practical for blocks

Multi-occupancy panels, directory systems and per-flat answering keep shared entrances controlled without inconveniencing residents.

03

Often no re-wiring

Many modern panels can work over existing two-wire cabling, which keeps replacement projects far less disruptive.

04

Answer from anywhere

App-based answering lets occupants deal with a caller whether they are in the building or not.

How we work

Five steps, in the same order every time.

A deliberately unremarkable process. Most of the problems we are asked to fix come from skipping one of these stages.
  1. ConsultationWe start by understanding the problem rather than quoting equipment.
  2. Site AssessmentNothing is specified until the building has been looked at properly.
  3. Solution DesignA specification you can read, understand and compare.
  4. InstallationCareful work, clean site, minimal disruption.
  5. Support & MaintenanceHandover, then an ongoing relationship rather than a closed job.

Next step

Tell us about the property and what you are trying to achieve. For anything beyond a very small job we will arrange a site visit, because specifying equipment without seeing the building rarely produces an accurate price.
