Real products, live prices, in stock now ## Key takeaways - Doors opened blind - Staff leaving their post - No record - The one time it matters ## The moment that matters A pharmacy store door. A staff entrance round the back. The maternity ward doors after visiting hours. At each of them, someone knocks, and someone inside opens it without knowing who is there, because the alternative is to leave their post, walk to the door and look. Most of the time that is fine. The time it is not fine is the time you remember. Control at the door is not about distrust. It is about knowing before you open. ## What waiting really takes **Doors opened blind**: No one knows who is there. **Staff leaving their post**: To see who knocked. **No record**: Who came, and when. **The one time it matters**: Rare, and serious. ## Picture the day after With a video door station the person inside sees the visitor on a screen, speaks to them and decides. The maternity ward releases the door for visitors during the visiting window and for staff at any hour. The pharmacy store opens only for the person who should be there. Security can answer any door from the control room. You gain control without adding a guard. ## How a call travels How a call travels A visitor presses the buttonAt the door station Desks and phones ringReception, ward or security, in an order you set Staff see and speakOn a screen, with two-way audio They decideAnd release the door or send help The visit is loggedWhere the system keeps records ## What to check before you buy | Check | Why it matters | | --- | --- | | Camera and lighting | Clear pictures by day and night | | Weather and vandal resistance | For outdoor and public doors | | Door release | Safe, and fail-safe for exits; agreed with your fire adviser | | Who answers | Which desks and phones ring | | Backup power | The core stays up in a power cut | | Support | Who repairs it, and how fast | ## How we set it up 1. **Walk the hospital**: We note every ward, desk, door and the routes staff walk to talk to each other. 2. **Draw the call plan**: Who rings whom, which desks share a number and where calls go if unanswered. 3. **Cable and power**: Network cable to every device, with power over the cable where the model supports it, and backup power for the core. 4. **Fit and configure**: Intercoms, phones and handsets installed, named and set up. 5. **Test every point**: A call from every device to every group, including after-hours routing. 6. **Train each shift**: A short session at shift change, then a check after two weeks. ## What we supply We design, supply and install IP intercoms, SIP desk phones, wireless handsets, ceiling speakers and the network behind them for hospitals, clinics and care homes.
