Intercoms and access control in Lombardy East

Older intercoms in Lombardy East are often mounted on brick or precast boundaries around established freestanding homes. We assess, repair and upgrade these systems, choosing video or mobile calling where trees and mature landscaping make the entrance difficult to see or reach with new cabling.

Updating intercoms and access for Lombardy East's established homes and varied boundaries

Lombardy East is about 7 km east of Sandton City. Lombardy East is an established suburb, mostly freestanding homes on older, larger stands, with some complexes and rental units. Properties on Modderfontein Road and Vincent Tshabalala Road also have mixed residential and business use. We often find older intercom installations on brick or precast walls, with mature gardens and trees grown around the fence. Existing gate infrastructure can thus be outdated or hard to access due to landscaping, making visitor screening and access management a specific challenge here.

Given Lombardy East's established nature and varied properties, we assess each entrance carefully. Where running new cables through mature gardens is difficult, a GSM intercom connects visitors directly to your phone, if mobile signal is present at the gate. For homes with gates obscured by trees or set back, a video intercom lets you see who is there before opening, with options for multiple indoor monitors. This ensures effective visitor screening.

For homeowners who have just bought, or those managing rental units in Lombardy East, knowing who can open the gate is key. We clear old remotes from receivers. We also remove individual keypad codes or access tags when staff or tenants leave, making sure past users no longer have access. For businesses on Modderfontein Road or Vincent Tshabalala Road, managing staff access with individual credentials allows for easy user removal and time-based control, keeping your property secure.

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 Lombardy East

I've just moved into Lombardy East. How do I know who still has gate access?

We can clear all existing remotes from your gate motor's receiver, then re-register only the ones you give us. For keypad systems, we can change the master code or remove individual user codes.

My existing intercom at the gate is very old and doesn't work well. Can it be repaired?

Often, yes. If the indoor units and existing cabling are still sound, we can usually replace only the weathered outdoor gate station with a new one designed to withstand local weather conditions.

What our intercom and access control customers say

  • Our gate intercom had become unreliable after years outside in the weather. One Point replaced the external station and reused the existing internal equipment where possible.

  • Our office needed tighter access control for staff, so One Point installed fingerprint readers at the main entrance and server room. The system has made managing access much easier.

  • We wanted facial recognition at the main office entrance but keypad access as a backup. Tyson installed both and made sure the two systems worked together smoothly.
