This apartment building telephone entry system is a hardwired system which delivers a powerful set of communication features to each apartment unit of the condominium dwelling. It can be a simple telephone entry access system or optionally a full entry access control and in-home intercom solution. The system runs on the phone wirelines. The intercom boxes can be installed either at the lobby utility room or individually inside each apartment unit. Wirelines attach directly to the system without the use of amphenol connectors, which makes the entry system installable by any electrician. No special telephone equipment and expertise required. We provide an optional install/maintenance kit that puts the installation to the level of anyone who can handle a screwdriver.

The Entry Access Panel (EAP-23) of this apartment building entry intercom system is a vandal-proof equipment which features a 16 gauge stainless steel faceplate, a heavy-duty metal telephone keypad, tamper-resistant screws and overall small size. The system can use an existing doorstrike circuit or energize the electric doorstrike by itself, significantly simplifying the wiring for the entrance doorstrike. We offer three different models for Entry Access Panel: a vandal-proof model for 7 to 63 units (EAP-23) available in flush-mount and surface-mount, and two lighter models for smaller buildings (EAP-6 and EAP-4) both available only in brushed stainless steel and flush-mount style.

This multi-unit telephone entry intercom system is built on modular components for reliable operation and easy maintenance. The whole system will never be down. The possible failure of the Entry Access Panel will not preclude phone to phone intercom and call transfer within the condo units, whenever those options are in use. Similarly, an intercom problem in one unit leaves all other units unaffected, including the Entry Access Panel. Even if the phone service in any unit (no dial tone) is discontinued or impaired by the public telephone network, the door entry access control service from the phone handsets and phone to phone intercom will fully  continue to work in that condo unit! In case of a power failure in the building (or the area), residents will still be able to use their phone line, though the access control service will obviously be interrupted. All this requires no special addition to the basic equipment. Each condo unit holds full control of its own portion of the system.

All of the above makes this apartment building telephone entry intercom system easy to maintain, and keeps maintenance costs strictly minimal.
