Triton Locksmith install audio and video intercom systems with remote door release for $400-$2,000. Perfect for apartment buildings, gated offices, and medical facilities where you need to screen visitors before buzzing them in.
What Types of Intercom Systems Do We Install?
Audio-only intercoms, video intercoms, and IP-based systems with smartphone integration. Basic audio intercoms with a door release button start at $400 for a single entry point. Video intercoms with a camera and monitor run $800-$1,200. Cloud-based IP systems that work with your phone cost $1,200-$2,000.
For multi-tenant buildings, we install panel systems where visitors select a unit number and the tenant buzzes them in from their apartment or office. These range from $1,000-$3,000 depending on the number of units.
How Does an Intercom Work with Door Access?
Visitor presses the call button. You see or hear them. You press a button to unlock the door. The intercom triggers an electric strike or magnetic lock on the entry door. The release can come from a wall station inside the building or from an app on your phone.
According to the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors, buildings with intercom-controlled entries have 60% fewer unauthorized entry incidents compared to buildings with key-only access. The screening step is a major deterrent.
Common Questions
How much does an intercom system cost?
Single-entry audio: $400-$600. Single-entry video: $800-$1,200. Multi-tenant panel: $1,000-$3,000. IP/smartphone-based: $1,200-$2,000. All prices include hardware, wiring, and installation.
Can I answer the intercom from my phone?
Yes, with IP-based systems. We install models from DoorBird, Aiphone, and 2N that send a video call to your smartphone. You can unlock the door from anywhere with cell service.
Do you wire the intercom to an electric door lock?
Yes. We install the intercom, the electric strike or magnetic lock, and all the wiring between them. It's a complete system, not just a speaker on the wall.
Can you add an intercom to an existing building?
Yes. We run low-voltage wiring through walls and ceilings. In older buildings where wall fishing is difficult, we use surface-mount conduit. Either way, we make it work.
