Safe. Secure. Protected.
Users can screen visitors, locate family members or relay messages with a simple touch of a button. When someone calls at a door station, a resident can safely identify who it is before letting them inside. With the interior stations placed throughout a house, residents no longer have to wander from room to room to try and find one another. AFP systems not only provide added security and communication but also offer unobtrusive, easy-to-use products, ideal for anyone who wants to protect their home and values.
The intercom system has come a long way in recent years and has many functions. New models allow you to see who is at the door, communicate from room-to-room, monitor your children, and even distribute your music throughout the home. Video is also available on certain models which provide viewing capabilities as you monitor your home and its surroundings.
AFP only uses top of the line equipment from manufacturers such as Aiphone, Mircon, Nutone and Music and Sound. Our systems are designed to be reliable and provide many years of service.
The basics of residential and/or commercial intercom systems are fairly straightforward. Please read below to see some different options you have for either:

Access Control
Many businesses have chosen to implement electronic control to door access for increased security and monitoring. Whether you wish to control one door or many we can provide a stand-alone or computer controlled system to allow increased control over access to your premises and assets. Access management is an essential component of the chain of security and protects the confidentiality of information, tools and know-how of every business. Through an innovative, integrated access control system, you can now monitor traffic at any location by determining the entry points, hours and days when access is authorized. Simply present your card to one of the readers, and the system identifies you and, unlocks and deactivates the door with a single action.

Intercoms/Access Control
Home owners and families no longer have to worry about securing their households. Let AFP install an easy-to-use audio or video systems which adds entry security and convenience of intercommunication so family members know they can feel safe within their home.
Residential: Typically you have a master station that is either an actual working unit somewhere in the home or a hub tucked away in a structured wiring enclosure that interacts with sub-stations to tie everything together. You can have almost as many zones as you would like in a system, but the typical is between 6 and 12 zones. Entry level system start as an "all call" system where you page the entire system and upon connection with another sub-station (the person you trying to reach answers) you have a "direct connection with that party. Most come with a baby monitoring feature. Moving up to a mid-level or high end model, you have options of LCD touch screen to select who you want contact as well as audio and video integration options.
Commercial: Most commercial facilities have intercom built-in their current telephone systems. Most of those systems have the ability to have external paging options to page outside areas or other locations. Just like the residential, commercial intercom systems on the commercial level have integration with audio, video, even securities (intrusion, access control, and CCTV).
