New doorphone system & access control in homeowners association
Upgrade to increase security in the building
The building in Østerbro previously had an audio system that needed an upgrade. The owners' association wanted to add another level of security to their building. The association wanted to make it possible for residents and the building's medical practice to speak to and see people before they were allowed in. The desire was to make it easier to control who was allowed in, thereby creating security for those who would be staying in the building.

The association wanted to avoid having to replace the entire system if a key was lost. All these requirements also had to match the building's aesthetics and history.

Based on the needs of the homeowners' association, KEYPARTNER came up with an advantageous solution that involved a combination of a video door phone system and an access control system. The combination gives the association a push into the 21st century in terms of security, and accommodates the building's history in terms of design.Doorphone system with audio and video
The owners' association chose to have a Scantron door station with both video and audio installed at their gate. This makes it possible for the building's residents and the medical practice's employees to see who is standing in front of the gate and wants access to the building. This makes it easier for users to grant access, but also to reject unauthorized persons. A door phone system with video therefore creates greater security and safety for residents and employees. Scantron models are extremely user-friendly. The door phone rings when there is a visitor, and the door is easily opened at the touch of a button. The door phones are simple in form, but razor-sharp in terms of design and function. The customer in Østerbro chose to have a specially designed door station made in burnished brass to match the building's appearance, history, and architecture. For the rear courtyard, the choice fell on two of Scantron's best-selling door stations, as seen in the video above. With Scantron door phones, it is possible to combine access control, automatic door closers, and other systems. In this case, the customer also chose to implement access control in the building.
User-friendly access control system
A standard locking system can quickly cause problems if a key is lost. This can result in having to replace the entire system in order to maintain the level of security. To avoid this scenario, the homeowners' association chose to have a SMARTair access control system. SMARTair electronic locks are a smart and flexible solution that provides an overview of the building's security status. The system makes it easy to control, identify, and update exactly who can open which doors. Lost or stolen key fobs can be quickly and easily canceled or reissued through SMARTair's software. This will help the homeowners' association in the future if a key fob goes missing. READ ALSO: SMARTair system – increase security in your businessDoes your security need an upgrade?
