EAC Fire & Security recently completed a video intercom upgrade at a private home in Queen’s Park, Bournemouth.
The customer had an older audio-only intercom system in place, which meant they could speak to visitors at the gate but could not visually confirm who was there. We upgraded the system to a modern Fermax Duox video intercom, giving the property a more secure and convenient way to manage visitors and access.
This type of upgrade is ideal for homes with gates, private driveways, shared entrances and properties where the customer wants better control over who can enter the site.
Upgrading From Audio Intercom to Video Intercom
For this project, we replaced the existing audio setup with a new video intercom system. The new system allows the customer to see and speak to visitors before granting access, adding an extra layer of security and convenience.
We installed a one-button video panel with a digital keypad, giving the customer a simple and reliable entrance solution. For anyone looking to improve entry security, a modern intercom system can make a big difference to day-to-day access control.
Marine Grade External Video Panel
As the entrance panel is fitted outside, we used a marine grade specification panel. This gives the intercom a more durable finish and helps protect it from the weather.
This is especially important for properties across Bournemouth and the South Coast, where external security equipment can be exposed to rain, wind, salt air and changing weather conditions throughout the year.
Fermax Duox System With WiFi Handset
The new Fermax Duox system included a WiFi handset inside the property, allowing the customer to benefit from app integration. This means the customer can manage visitors more easily and receive calls from the entrance panel through the connected system.
The installation included:
- Upgrade from audio intercom to video intercom
- Marine grade external video panel
- One-button entrance panel
- Digital keypad
- Fermax Duox system
- WiFi handset
- App integration
- Connection to the existing gate entry setup
