Business intercom systems are an excellent attribute for your office or commercial premise, the advantages far outweighing the cost of having a system installed. There are many different systems that you can have installed at your premise, intercoms that include a camera screen being the best option for security.
When you have an office in a block, or where you cannot see the front door, you need to be able to know who is at the door before you let them in. An intercom system available from Elex Gates can allow you to track who is entering and exiting your office block or premise, and it can be combined with a keypad to allow certain people instant access without having to ring a bell at all.
Business Intercom Systems for Added Security
Having a free door to your office is the worst idea ever. If you are not in sight of the front door at all times, you cannot simply have an open door. Even some offices on the high street where the person at the door can be seen from every desk will have a system where they will need to be buzzed in. This is common sense and logic, most especially if you have expensive equipment in your office. If someone wants to come in, they will ring the bell or intercom system and wait. It really is that simple.
When your office is in a large building, an intercom system is essential, and in this case, one that includes a camera is always the best choice. This way you can check who is outside before buzzing them in. If your office is on a high level, always ensure that you have another bell system at your office front door. You never know who might have been let in the building by another person, or even followed someone in.
Time Saving
Business intercom systems will also save you time. If you have to get up every time you go and open your office door, then you will get disturbed from the task you were doing. You will lose far more productive work time than just the moments it took you to get up and walk to the door. When the intercom system is situated by the side of your desk, you don’t even have to leave your desk to see who is at the door. The perfect solution for any busy office!
Money Saving
Many offices that don’t have an intercom system will have someone who mans the front desk at all times. This means paying out a wage to someone to do the job that an intercom system can do for free. Although someone at the front desk will be added security, a good intercom system and a bell system outside the door of your individual office are just as efficient. Unless your front desk receptionist has another purpose such as taking people to your office or giving useful information to visitors, a manned reception really is not that necessary and it is no longer considered bad manners to be greeted by an empty front desk. Businesses are moving with the times, and that means heightening security whilst keeping running costs down to a minimum.
