Intercoms for Linksfield Ridge homes set high above the road
Linksfield Ridge is about 8 km south-east of Sandton City. In Linksfield Ridge, homes are often positioned high on the slope for the views, placing the entrance gate far below the main house. On properties off roads like Goodman Terrace or Sylvia Pass, this steep elevation and distance means a visitor at the gate is completely out of sight and earshot. This makes screening visitors difficult and presents a challenge for traditional hard-wired systems.
A video intercom is the most effective way to see who is at a distant gate, and we can place multiple screens within the house. However, cabling up a long, steep Linksfield Ridge driveway can be a major task. For these situations, an intercom that uses the mobile network to call your phones is often a more practical choice, as it only requires power at the gate.
For large homes with staff and regular service providers, managing access is important. Instead of handing out remotes which are difficult to retrieve, we can install a keypad or tag reader. This allows you to issue a code or tag that can be easily deleted when a contractor's job is done or staff leave, securing your Linksfield Ridge property without affecting other users' access.
Everything we install and repair, and how a job runs from first call to handover, is on our intercoms and access control page.
Questions from Linksfield Ridge
My driveway is very long and steep. Do we have to dig it up to install an intercom?
Not necessarily. Where running a new cable would be too disruptive for a Linksfield Ridge property, we recommend an intercom that calls your phone using the mobile network. This system connects to your gate but doesn't need a physical cable running back to the house.
We just moved in. How can we be sure no old residents or their staff can still open our gate?
The only way to be certain is to have us wipe the gate motor's memory. We clear all the old remotes from the system and then re-program only the ones you hold, giving you full control over who has access.
