Smart access control: integration of intercoms, videophones and app controls

As an installer, you know that a modern access control system should offer more than just doors that open. Smart systems combine hardware, software and ease of use, so that your customer has access not only safely, but also comfortably.

Why integration is critical

Today, many customers expect a seamless experience: seeing, speaking, and providing access to visitors through one system. A smart access control system links:

  • Intercoms for direct communication with visitors
  • Video intercoms for visual verification of incoming persons
  • Mobile apps for remote control and notifications

By integrating these components, you can offer your customers a complete overview and maximum control. This not only increases ease of use, but also safety.

Benefits for the installer

An integrated system offers benefits not only for the end user, but also for you as an installer:

Faster installation

Pre-configured units such as the Fasttel Wizard Prestige or Commander work plug & play.

Fewer failures

One system reduces compatibility issues across devices.

Scalability

Additional indoor stations, videophones or access options can be added easily.

Flexibility

Integration with existing SIP servers or home automation makes the installation suitable for both new buildings and renovations.

For you as an installer, this means that you provide a system that offers added value for the customer and provides fewer return times.

Mobile app integration

Mobile apps are at the heart of smart access control:

  • Instant notifications: residents see who is ringing the doorbell, wherever they are.
  • Remote access: the app makes it possible to open doors or gates without being physically present.
  • Temporary access codes: convenient for maintenance staff or guests.
  • Configuration and management: managing settings, permissions, and updates via the app saves you as an installer a lot of work.

Fasttel apps are designed for quick setup and intuitive use, without complex account registrations or complicated links.

Seamless integration with intercoms and videophones

By integrating Fasttel intercoms and videophones with the access control system, your customer gets:

  • Crystal-clear images of visitors via indoor stations or smartphones
  • Secure communication thanks to encrypted connections
  • Easy management of multiple users within a single network

This makes the system ideal for both residential and business applications.

Tips for a smooth installation

  • Check network and Wi-Fi range before installing wireless units
  • Use pre-configured devices whenever possible
  • Document permissions and access codes for end users
  • Test each component individually and as an integrated system

→ By following these steps, you ensure a smooth installation and satisfied customers.

Conclusion: added value for your customers and yourself

Smart access control that combines intercoms, videophones and apps offers your customers comfort, safety and ease of use. For you as an installer, it means fewer installation problems, faster delivery and a professional impression that lasts.
