🛠️ What We Install

🚪

Keyless Entry Panels

Cloud door controllers (Brivo ACS300, Kisi Controller Pro 2, Verkada, Avigilon Alta) with keypads, card/fob readers, and mobile credentials — including Apple Wallet tap-to-enter.

🧲

Locks & Door Hardware

Mag locks, electric strikes, request-to-exit devices, and door contacts — specified to fire code (fail-secure strikes, fail-safe mags with fire-alarm release) and inspected to pass.

🔔

Video Intercom Systems

2N, Aiphone, Verkada, ButterflyMX, and DoorBird stations that buzz visitors to a phone instead of a wall speaker — with video, delivery management, and audit trails.

📱

Cloud Door Management

Add or revoke users in seconds, set door schedules, pull audit reports, and lock down the building from your phone — one dashboard for every door, every site.

🏢

Multi-Door & Multi-Site

From a 2-door office to portfolios across Northeast Georgia. Controllers scale from single panels to hundreds of doors with centralized administration.

🔧

Service & Migration

Troubleshooting, reader and lock replacement, firmware updates — and migrations that reuse your existing wiring, readers, and credentials so you don't pay for what you already own.

🔔 Video Intercoms for the Front Door

A visitor presses a button; your phone rings with live video; you buzz them in from anywhere. We size the intercom to what it has to plug into — your access control, your camera system, your phones.

Enterprise-grade door stations with deep SIP integration for offices. Open APIs, vandal-resistant models, NDAA compliant.

Aiphone IX / IXG

Spec-grade wired IP video for schools, healthcare, and multi-site — scales to thousands of stations with rock-solid reliability.

ButterflyMX

App-first intercoms for multi-tenant buildings — visitors call tenants on their phones, with delivery and visitor management built in.

Verkada Intercom

Cloud intercom inside the Verkada stack — Zoom Phone certified, answered from the same app as your cameras and doors.

Retrofit-friendly IP door stations for small offices — German build quality, SIP, no mandatory SaaS.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What does commercial access control cost in Athens GA?

In 2026, small commercial buildings (1–5 doors) typically run $1,500–$2,500 per door fully installed, with cloud management adding roughly $20–$70 per door per month. Every building is different — we quote Athens-area buildings on site, free.

Can you add access control to an existing office?

Yes. Modern cloud panels like Kisi's Controller Pro 2 or Brivo's ACS300 can reuse existing readers, wiring, and even credentials during a migration. An on-site survey determines what can be kept — we'd rather save you money than sell you hardware you don't need.

What's the difference between access control and an intercom?

Access control decides who gets in — cards, fobs, phones, or PINs opening doors on a schedule. An intercom lets you see and talk to visitors before you buzz them in. They work best together: we install both, often from the same vendor or as paired systems.

Do you service systems you didn't install?

Yes — we troubleshoot and service most major access control and intercom brands across Athens and Northeast Georgia, and we can migrate legacy systems to modern cloud platforms.
