Choose the entry point and answering locations
Explain whether visitors arrive at a front door, pedestrian gate or shared entrance, and where you want to answer them. A camera view, indoor station, mobile answering and door release are separate requirements to confirm for the chosen system.
Check the existing connection
Record any current intercom model, cable type and power arrangement. Gate distance, building layout and network access influence the options. Ask for the proposed components and any replacement cabling to be listed in your quote.
Compare model level before buying
The right video intercom for a home or business depends on the exact model details, lock release method, mounting point and power. Confirm compatibility before collection or installation planning. Installation and aftercare are arranged separately from equipment selection.
Confirm access behaviour
Discuss who should be able to answer calls and release an entrance. Ask what happens during an internet or power outage, and check which functions require additional equipment or subscriptions. Availability and installation arrangements are confirmed on enquiry.
