To improve the safety of residents and the convenience of using the front door, in multi-apartment and private homes, a doorphone is installed. This very simple, but at the same time, the desired device can immediately solve several problems. Let's find out what positive aspects it has.
Rules for installing a doorphone
If you are going to install an intercom in your apartment, then you can not do without the consent of the other tenants, because the calling device and the locking lock are located on the common entrance door . Most often installation in high-rise buildings are engaged in contracting firms that have all the relevant permits for similar work, as well as legal authority.
The installation of a doorphone is secretly allowed, if more than 50% of the residents agree to this. It should be the case that the more subscribers will be connected, the cheaper each specific consumer will manage this pleasure. But the law says that it is impossible to force someone who does not want to install a door phone, as this limits the freedom of access of special services (ambulance, police, fire service) to the common room (entrance). This means that all issues should be resolved amicably, otherwise because of one person who will defend his rights in court, everyone will suffer.
Installation of intercom in the apartment
If all legal aspects have been resolved with neighbors, it is time to learn about how the installation process itself is going on. So, the system will require the laying of a powerful cable from the switchboard to the door of the entrance. As a rule, the doors themselves get replaced - they are replaced by stronger ones, often armored ones. After the calling device (a box with buttons) is installed on the door, begin to route the wiring to each apartment individually.
And then the most important thing begins - if the tenants have the means, then you can install not a regular handset, but a videophone with a color or black and white screen. In this case, it will be possible to fence off unwanted visitors, or to figure out the children from the neighboring entrance, which may not bother with the case for the sake of a joke.
If it is decided to install a regular handset - then it's a matter of a few minutes and four screws. The owner of the apartment indicates where it would be convenient for him to place a removable tube, the master makes a hole in the wall for the wire with a perforator and everything - you can take work, but only when all the subscribers are connected and test calls are made. After that, electronic keys to the lock are issued to each connected apartment, and final payment is made.
Installation of the intercom to the gate
Much easier is the situation with the installation of the device in a private home ownership. You do not need to negotiate with neighbors, because the gate is your own. But the installation of the device on it has its own characteristics. The most basic thing you need to be ready for is that it will cost you a lot, as private traders most often want a videophone that costs several times more than a simple tube.
In addition, if the wicket where the caller is attached is located far from the entrance door, it is recommended to install a special lock on it, the so-called electric lock, which can be opened by pressing a button on the intercom, and not manually leaving the street. Very important is the height of the installation of the intercom, or rather the calling block on the gate, which has a built-in video camera. After all, in order to see the grieving guest clearly, it is necessary to correctly calculate this distance. It is recommended to place it at least 160 cm from the ground. And thus the camera will be approximately 168cm - the average person's height. In addition, the block is not fixed at a right angle, but slightly inclined for a better view.
