Modern Access Control for a Safer, Smarter Property
Secure, convenient entry is a top priority for any property — whether it’s a residential community, commercial facility, or mixed-use building.
Modern telephone entry and intercom systems are evolving rapidly, providing property owners and managers with powerful tools to enhance security, improve visitor management, and offer residents and tenants a seamless access experience.
Today’s systems do far more than simply buzz people in. They integrate video verification, mobile app controls, smart credential support, and cloud-based management, helping properties stay connected, secure, and efficient.
What to Expect from Modern Telephone Entry and Intercom Solutions
Modern intercom and telephone entry systems are designed to meet the demands of today’s connected environments. Key capabilities include:
- Video Verification: See visitors clearly at entry points with wide-angle, high-definition video feeds.
- Remote Access Management: Grant or deny access from anywhere using a mobile app or web dashboard.
- Credential Flexibility: Support for smartphone credentials, PIN codes, RFID badges, NFC, and Bluetooth.
- Cloud Connectivity: Real-time monitoring, event logging, and remote troubleshooting via cloud platforms.
- Durable Construction: Systems are built to withstand harsh weather, tampering, and heavy usage.
- Seamless Integration: Easily tie into existing access control systems, property management software, and smart locks.
These features help streamline property operations, increase resident satisfaction, and reduce unauthorized access risks.
Key Vendors Leading the Way
At Access Hardware, we work with industry leaders like ButterflyMX and Verkada to deliver best-in-class solutions tailored to your property.
ButterflyMX revolutionized the industry by introducing smartphone-based video intercoms. Their systems allow residents and staff to see and grant access to visitors from their phones, tablets, or computers.
Their clean, touchscreen hardware fits into a range of property types — from multifamily and student housing to gated communities.
Verkada brings a robust, enterprise-grade solution to the market, combining intercom, access control, and surveillance into a single device.
With onboard AI-driven analytics, real-time event monitoring, and powerful cloud backup, Verkada is ideal for properties that demand a higher level of security and remote oversight.
Both vendors offer mobile-first experiences, but each caters to slightly different needs: ButterflyMX for simplicity and affordability, Verkada for advanced security and intelligent insights.
Why Invest in an Upgraded System?
Older telephone entry systems often rely on landlines, static directories, and outdated hardware.
Upgrading to a modern video intercom system can:
- Enhance security by verifying who is at the door before granting access.
- Improve resident/tenant satisfaction with faster, easier access management.
- Reduce administrative burden with automated directories and virtual credentials.
- Future-proof your property with scalable, cloud-connected technology.
- Simplify deliveries and vendor access without compromising security.
Whether you manage a residential community, office building, or mixed-use development, upgrading your entry system is one of the most impactful improvements you can make.
