State-of-the
art video entry systems have been installed at a prestigious new Barratt Homes
development – part of the Hendon Waterside regeneration scheme in northwest
London.
One
of Comelit’s Gold Partner installation companies, Lancroft Limited, has
installed Comelit’s ViP system in a high-end residential development, which
comprises 286 apartments across four blocks, where fourteen award-winning 3one6
Sense digital panels have also been fitted at the entrances.
Featuring
a built-in colour camera, the 3one6 Sense series combines cutting-edge
technology with stylish, contemporary design. It has no mechanical keys, using
capacitive touch technology instead. And with an IK08 rating, the units combine
robust protection against vandalism with a sleek, high-quality design.
Residents
at the Hendon Waterside apartments are able to communicate with visitors using
the Comelit Smart monitors, which feature full duplex hands-free loudspeakers and
3.5-inch LCD displays. The sleekly designed and finished monitors are
flush-mounted to provide additional elegance, while contributing to the smart,
contemporary interior décor.
The
system’s concierge feature enables the concierge to send messages to all, or
groups of, residents, for example to give notice of maintenance work on the
lifts.
Lancroft
has harnessed the full benefits of IP technology, with the ViP system sitting
on the network as well as connecting to the site’s 80-camera IP surveillance
system. Being IP-based, the system has no distance limitations and is able to
provide an unlimited number of users with simultaneous video and audio
communications, while at the same time enabling remote connection and
diagnostics.
The
development will include a daytime concierge service, private fitness suite,
rooftop garden and community hub service.
Hendon
Waterside is a flagship regeneration scheme and part of an exciting series of
projects currently transforming the landscape in West Hendon and the
surrounding area. Located next to the Welsh Harp reservoir, the development is
in association with the Metropolitan Housing Trust and the London Borough of
Barnet and will consist of more than 2,000 apartments when it is completed over
the next eight years.
Hendon
Waterside has been awarded the prestigious Built for
Life commendation, a government-endorsed accolade for well-designed homes
and a recognised industry seal of approval.
