Door Entry & IntercomImported & distributed

Video door entry, audio intercom, apartment-block panels and IP access systems for homes and buildings.

We supply door entry as a complete system: outdoor call panels, indoor monitors and handsets, power supplies, distributors, electric locks and the IP or two-wire backbone that connects them. Apartment blocks, single houses and mixed-use buildings each need a different architecture, so the number of apartments, cable routes and whether phone access is required are settled before the equipment is chosen.

00 / The brief

The same building can be upgraded cheaply or expensively, depending on what the riser allows.

Two-wire platforms reuse much of an existing intercom riser, which is why an older block can move to video without opening every landing. IP platforms need network cabling but bring app answering, multiple entrances and integration.

1–4 wks

A door entry system is decided by the building's cabling, not by the monitor on the wall.

We check the cabling and the apartment schedule first, then configure the panel, monitors, distributors, power supplies and locks so the installer receives a system rather than a box of parts.

04 / How to specify it

The decisions that decide the result.

01 / 06

Survey the existing cabling

What the riser contains decides whether a retrofit is simple or a rewire.

02 / 06

Count the units and entrances

The apartment schedule sets panel type, module count and distributor quantities.

03 / 06

Decide app answering early

It requires internet at the building and a policy on who may answer.

04 / 06

Specify the lock with the system

Strike or magnetic lock, power supply and exit button must match the panel's outputs.

05 / 06

Plan the outdoor panel position

Height, weather protection and camera field of view affect daily usability.

06 / 06

Keep the configuration documented

Names, codes and addresses should stay on file for future changes.

Common mistakes

Ordering monitors before checking the riser

The platform may not run on the cabling that exists, and the order becomes a rewire.

Sizing the power supply for the panel only

Monitors, locks and distributors all draw current; undersized supplies cause intermittent faults.

Choosing an IP system with no reliable network

App features stop working the moment the building's connection does.

06 / The long read

What actually decides
a good door entry & intercom order.

Panel, monitors, distributors, power supply and lock come as one configured system with a wiring diagram. This is the part most suppliers leave out: what we import, how door entry & intercom should be specified before anyone prices it, where projects lose money, and what our 1–4 wks lead time actually covers.

01

What we import, and what lands on site

We supply door entry as a complete system: outdoor call panels, indoor monitors and handsets, power supplies, distributors, electric locks and the IP or two-wire backbone that connects them. Apartment blocks, single houses and mixed-use buildings each need a different architecture, so the number of apartments, cable routes and whether phone access is required are settled before the equipment is chosen.

Because we buy door entry & intercom directly from the factories, the range you see is the range we can programme — not a catalogue we hope to source later. In practice that means video door entry, audio intercom and IP & app-based systems, each with its own price band and availability, so a specification can be tuned to a budget instead of abandoned.

System architecture before hardware: two-wire, IP or hybrid is decided from the number of units, cable routes and whether existing wiring stays.

02

How door entry & intercom should be specified before it is priced

Specifying door entry & intercom well comes down to a short list of decisions taken in the right order — survey the existing cabling, count the units and entrances, decide app answering early, specify the lock with the system. Taken on paper, these cost nothing. Taken on site, each one is a change order.

We write the specification with you before anything is quoted, so the number you get is for the material that will actually be installed. That means confirmed dimensions and finishes, the right performance class for the space, and quantities that include the waste factor rather than discovering it mid-installation.

The same reference behaves differently depending on where it goes — apartment blocks, single houses and villas, offices and mixed-use buildings, hotels and short-term rentals each carry their own requirements, and we specify against the space rather than against a mood image.

IP intercom

Distributor

Device that branches the riser to individual apartments and keeps signal quality.

Electric strike

Lock release energised by the entry system to open the door.

03

Where door entry & intercom projects lose time and money

Almost every delay we are called in to rescue traces back to the same handful of causes: ordering monitors before checking the riser, sizing the power supply for the panel only, choosing an IP system with no reliable network and leaving the lock to the door contractor. None of them are exotic, and all of them are avoidable at specification stage.

Ordering monitors before checking the riser is the most expensive one, because the platform may not run on the cabling that exists, and the order becomes a rewire.

We have supplied door entry & intercom into apartment blocks, houses and villas, offices and mixed use, and the pattern is consistent: the projects that run smoothly are the ones where the material was locked before the trades were booked.

Sizing the power supply for the panel only — checked once on paper, never again on site.

Mismatched voltages and fail-safe versus fail-secure choices cause rework at handover.

04

Lead times, pricing and what we handle

Standard lead time on door entry & intercom is 1–4 wks from confirmed specification, and that window covers the whole chain — factory programming, consolidation, transport, customs where applicable and delivery to site or to your warehouse. We quote the landed number, not an ex-works price that grows later.

Pricing is per project rather than per line. Because we import directly and consolidate door entry & intercom with the rest of the materials for the same room, you get one quote, one delivery window and one point of contact — and the savings show up on the total, not just on a headline reference.

If you already have drawings, send them and we will come back with a specification and a landed price. If you do not, we will build the specification with you first. Either way, nothing is ordered until the quantities, finishes and dates are agreed in writing.

07 / Questions

Frequently asked

Can an old audio intercom become video?+

Often yes. Two-wire systems can reuse much of the existing riser, which avoids opening the landings of the whole block. The cabling has to be checked before ordering.

What is the difference between two-wire and IP systems?+

Two-wire is simpler and ideal for retrofits. IP systems run on network cable and suit new builds, multiple entrances, app answering and integration with cameras or access control.

Can I answer the door from my phone?+

Yes, with IP or app-enabled systems. It needs a stable internet connection at the building and a decision about who is allowed to answer.

How many apartments can one panel serve?+

From a few to well over a hundred, depending on the platform. The apartment schedule decides the panel type, module count and the number of distributors.

Do you supply the electric lock as well?+

Yes. The lock, power supply, exit button and any access reader are quoted with the system so voltages and wiring match.

Can it be combined with cameras or smart-home control?+

IP platforms integrate with cameras and building control. The integration is defined at specification stage, because it affects the panel and network choice.

Materials from this category are usually specified for office fit-out and interior design projects. If your project needs installation as well as supply, we handle both together.
