Intercoms and access for Parkview’s older freestanding homes and separate street gates
Parkview is about 7 km south-west of Sandton City. At many Parkview homes, the driveway gate and pedestrian entrance are separate from the house, so a caller may be difficult to identify from indoors. On older properties, the existing intercom cable, gate station and indoor handset may also date from different rounds of alterations.
For a Parkview entrance with usable cabling, we may fit a video intercom and place indoor monitors where the household can answer them. Where a new cable route would disturb an established property, a GSM intercom may be more practical, provided the gate has power and reliable mobile signal. We link the chosen system to the driveway motor or pedestrian gate lock.
People buying established Parkview homes should assume that old remotes, tags and codes may still work until the system is checked. We can clear the receiver, remove former users and register only the household, staff and regular service providers who still need access. Tyson assesses the entrance and sets out the proposed changes in writing.
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 Parkview
Can you keep the existing intercom wiring at our Parkview home?
Often, yes. We test the cable and connected equipment first, then advise whether a new gate station or monitor can use what is already there.
We have just bought in Parkview. Should the gate remotes be replaced?
Not necessarily. We can clear the receiver and register only the remotes you approve, so remotes held by former occupants no longer open the gate.
Every Parkview property is different, so we look before we quote. Send us a photo or call, and we will arrange a visit and a written quote for your intercom work.
