ENTRYPHONE.
		Entryphone is a British manufacturer, established in 1958. Products are designed and manufactured with the belief that once installed a system should remain a functional and serviceable part of the building for as long as it is required. There is therefore no such thing as an obsolete “Entryphone”. Spare parts for every product are available. Entryphone apparatus is designed to be easily installed and simple to maintain. Entryphone systems are not complicated and do not incorporate the latest microchip technology - the internal circuitry is based on well known and established telephone and closed circuit T.V. Principles and full technical information can be provided on any product. Audio, video and coded access systems are all available in very cost effective stainless steel finish, flush or surface mounted and offering backlit nameplates as opposed to permanent engraving.

Kit versions are also available and come complete with power supply unit, handsets and full installation instructions. New developments include ICE call door entry, which is ideal for Housing Association and local authority apartments. ICE (Isolated Circuit Entry) is designed so that each apartment line is isolated from the rest of the system, making ICE Call easy to install and maintain. Installation requires just three common wires and one ID line, and the system can be maintained from a secure control panel. If one of the handsets is attacked or broken, as the system is on an isolated circuit it will only affect that line, not the rest of the system.
