Fully Integrated Access Control Systems
Access Control as part of a Home Automation System
Integrating Access Control systems in to a home automation system makes perfect sense - not only can actions be performed when a caller rings the door bell but you can view the intercom system from any touchpanel in the home. Bringing lights on by the front door can gently illuminate visitors to increase secuirty but the same system can also prepare the home when you arrive. Imagine opening the front gates, or garage door, and the home bringing on the lights as you like them, brings the heating up from it's away mode and opening down stairs blinds - all preprogrammed to your wishes and automated so you dont have to lift a finger. Yoiu could even be greeted by your favourite radio station playing in the kitchen.
Intercom Access throughout the Home
Gone are the days of having a video phone in one or two areas of the home - meaning a mad dash when the buzzer goes. Our system allow you to access the intercom in any room of the home - providing two way audio and a camera window on every touchpanel. Full functionality allows you to view the visitor and release the door should you wish. You can even use the same intercom system to intercom around the home. We partner BPT intercom systems (among others) with Crestron control systems which gives us access to the full range of intercom stations, keypads and card reader technologies.
Away from Home? No Problem.
We can even give you access to your intercom system when away from home - should the intruder alarm be set we can route the intercom system to your mobile phone allowing two way audio with the door station and even relaying CCTV video streams. You then have the option of asking the visitor to return at a later date or allowing entry and dis-arming the security system. This kind of integration is a firm favourite with our clients who have multiple homes and is great for security.
