Intercoms & Door Entry Systems
Intercoms (audio or video entry systems) can really enhance the security of your property. They allow you to speak directly to whoever is visiting your home or business, allowing you to choose whether or not they enter before they have a chance to cuase any trouble. Intercoms are particulary useful in multi-occupancy buildings, both domestic or commercial. The infirm or elderly can also particulary benefit from the convenience of being able to talk to whoever is outside without making the effort of reaching the front door, and without the fear of opening the door to a stranger.
There are two basic types of entry systems:
Audio entry systems
Audio entry systems will allow you to speak to callers before you let them in, either by physically opening the door yourself, or releasing the door from the convenience of a remote location via an electric release mechanism.
Video entry systems
Video entry systems provide you with the same features as an audio system, however it will also display images of callers for increased security.
