The cost depends on the intercom type, number of entrances and answering points, cable routes and any work needed to connect a lock or gate. A video door phone with one indoor monitor has a different scope from an apartment intercom that routes calls from a shared entrance to individual units.
What to send for a quotation. Include the property type, town or county, number of doors or gates and the number of units or desks that need to answer calls. Send entry-point photos and the model numbers of any existing intercom, lock or gate motor if available. Ask for equipment, cabling, installation and any recurring fees to be itemised.

Intercom Installation for Homes, Apartments and Offices
For a home, tell us whether calls should ring an indoor monitor, a mobile phone or both. For an apartment block, specify which entrances serve each unit. For an office, tell us whether reception, a guard desk or another team will answer calls and approve entry.
Depending on the site and agreed scope, an installation quotation can cover the following.
- Site review. Check the entrance layout, mounting positions, cable routes and available power or network connections.
- Equipment supply. Specify outdoor call panels, indoor monitors or handsets, power supplies and compatible door or gate interfaces.
- Setup and testing. Agree on checks for call routing, two-way audio, video and any quoted app or release functions.
- Handover and support. Confirm what user guidance and follow-up maintenance are included.
Intercom Gate Release, Access Control and CCTV Integration
An intercom can release a compatible electric lock or operate a compatible automatic gate. Share the lock or gate controller model so we can check compatibility and identify any additional interface or wiring needed.
For an existing CCTV or access control system, describe each function you want. You may want to view the intercom camera on a recorder, release a door through an access controller or do both. We’ll confirm what the proposed equipment can support before quoting.
Intercom System FAQs
Can I answer a video intercom on my phone?
Some models support notifications or calls through a mobile app. Confirm whether the quoted model supports remote answering, which phones it works with and whether it requires an internet connection, account or subscription.
Will an intercom work without internet?
Some systems can ring an indoor handset or monitor without internet access. Remote app features may require an active connection. Ask which functions work during an internet outage and what backup power options are available for a power cut.
Can I upgrade from audio to video using the same wiring?
Reuse depends on the cable type, condition, distance and requirements of the replacement system. Share the current intercom model and any wiring details so we can assess what can stay.
Can I buy an intercom without installation?
Yes. For an equipment-only quotation, send the model or entrance requirements, quantities and delivery location. Tell us whether you also need indoor monitors, handsets, power supplies or a door-release interface.
Do you install intercom systems outside Nairobi?
Yes. Share your town, property type, number of entrances and target date. We’ll confirm the equipment, installation scope, scheduling and any applicable charges before booking.
