Product in a nutshell: Videx has launched the UIM-138, an LCD display and voice unit that can be deployed within door-entry systems at both residential and commercial properties to bolster access-control security.
Verticals/sectors: Display and voice annunciation functions have hitherto been strongly associated with digital door panels on large-scale developments. The UIM-138 now brings this capability to smaller systems and therefore smaller developments.
Features:
Compatibility: Can be incorporated into any vandal-resistant or VR4K door panel for the VX2200 system.
Developer says: “The UIM-138 carries a number of features that both simplifies and strengthens the door entry security of a building,” says Videx National Sales Manager Neil Thomas. “For example, a visitor may not always understand how to use a door entry system.
“The UIM-138 adds call progressing information to the door panel which will take them through the process of calling an apartment using displayed and spoken messages on a step-by-step basis.
“The UIM-138 provides a number of key benefits to door entry systems. It adds to the user friendliness of the door panel ensuring the panel is easy to use and understand while also offering additional information to visitors.
“When used with the two scroll buttons and a call button it creates a simple but highly functional door panel which can call up to 180 apartments or businesses simply by scrolling to the name and pressing call. The additional IO facility can be used for a number of functions.
“One such function could be to show custom messages on the display. These messages, for instance, could be triggered from an apartment to assist a tenant who has difficulties communicating using the telephone handset.”
About the developer: Nearly 30 years in the business Videx has been manufacturing door-entry and access-control solutions since 1985.
Videx, whose clients come from a wide range of sectors in both public and private arenas, says it draws great pride from its research and development, after-sales service and technical support functions.
The London and Newcastle-based company is also a Secure by Design Door Entry & Access Control Member Company with a plethora of products tested to STS202 B R2 Level of Burglary Resistance.
