Video intercom systems for St. Albert buildings
Older St. Albert condo buildings often still have a buzzer panel that dials residents’ landlines, while new buildings in Erin Ridge and Jensen Lakes are going up with app-based entry. We install and support video intercoms in both, across St. Albert and Morinville.
Seniors residences need something a little different: a panel that’s easy to read, calls that go to the front desk during the day and to residents’ regular phones, and family visits that don’t depend on an app. We set up call routing to suit each building.
