Entire Property Control

It doesn’t do much good to secure one area of a property if you don’t secure them all. That’s a little bit like locking your windows but leaving the front door wide open. However, by using the KeyCom®, you’ll be certain the entire property is connected and protected. This system fully monitors a building’s activities and features by:

• Managing all activities in and around a building, including package deliveries.
• Monitoring visitor and guest access.
• Managing any service requests, and facilitating communication between building staff and residents. 

Video Access Control

MVI’s KeyCom® video-intercom technology allows users to clearly see and control who has access to the building. Gone are the days of voice-only buzzer intercom systems. Those didn’t allow you to see who was at the door, and their sound quality left a lot to be desired. MVI System’s KeyCom® is a vast improvement, providing live video and top-notch audio quality that you can access conveniently from your smart phone. 

Seamless Communication

While security is of paramount importance, this system goes far beyond that. MVI’s platform also simplifies communication. Now, property managers and owners can notify all of their residents any time there are building updates with the press of a button! Just go to the management portal and select “Create New Notice.”

State-of-the-Art Technology

The KeyCom® was created using state-of-the-art technology. This security system has the latest in facial recognition and artificial intelligence software built into a smart automatic video intercom system that can be accessed remotely from anywhere you are. That means neither staff nor residents need to be in the building to use it! For example, If a package is being delivered, postal carriers can simply use the security system to gain entry to the mailroom, drop off the package, and the correct resident will be notified that it has arrived. Likewise, if a resident has unexpected company stop by at an inopportune time, they can tell them it’s not a good time and deny access. 

Today’s property owners, managers, and residents all appreciate having an easy-to-use video intercom security entry system. With MVI’s KeyCom®, they know they have the protection needed to be safe. Contact us today to learn more about this revolutionary system!

From Thanksgiving through New Year’s Day, when tenants are likely to be busiest, more guests are coming and going, and the number of deliveries to the building skyrockets, MVI’s KeyCom® system helps apartment buildings stay safer and more secure by:

1. Monitoring Guest Access

There are dozens of reasons to get together over the holidays, and that means a steady stream of visitors—many of them first-timers—coming in and out of your building. MVI’s KeyCom® allows guests to scroll through the building’s directory, select an apartment number, name, or icon, and request access to the building from the resident they intend to visit via video chat. 

2. Managing Package Delivery

Starting the week of December 10th, the USPS expects to deliver 200 million packages before Christmas Day—that’s a jump of 33% over last year. As e-commerce sales continue to climb, KeyCom’s® ability to deter package pirates, those thieves who take advantage of unattended packages sitting in hallways, lobbies, and foyers, becomes all-important. With our Package Room Solution, delivery drivers and couriers simply access the building using the touchscreen and deliver the parcels to a secure package location for later pick-up by residents. No more lost or undeliverable packages!

3. Maximizing Resident Communication

The holidays bring with them a variety of situations that probably aren’t at play as often throughout the rest of the year: things like maximum occupancy limits, adherence to fire codes for indoor and outdoor décor, and the use of appliances like deep fryers that come out once a year to cook the turkey for a holiday meal. Savvy apartment managers use KeyCom’s® web portal to send building-wide messages to all residents, reminding them of the importance of adhering to holiday safety codes.

4. Maximizing Communication with Maintenance

Inclement weather and colder temperatures that often come with holiday time can cause frozen pipes, slippery sidewalks, and damage to roofs and gutters. Apartment managers can use the KeyCom’s® web portal to instruct maintenance staff to make sure that all their building’s safety equipment, from fire extinguishers to carbon monoxide detectors, is in good working order. This busy time of the year is also bound to bring with it more maintenance requests, including emergency work orders that need to be dealt with immediately for safety reasons. Again, apartment managers can use KeyCom® to communicate these requests to their maintenance staff and manage their status to ensure that the complex stays safe and secure.

While residents may be aware of an apartment complex’s emergency plan, visitors or partygoers who are in the building for the first time likely do not. Take a few minutes to post a notice pointing out additional emergency exit signage. List essential phone numbers, including ways to contact property management in case of crisis no matter what time it is.

If it’s time to upgrade your apartment complex’s security strategy in 2023, request a demo from MVI to learn about some of the best options on the market. MVI is an industry leader in enhanced security for apartment building security year-round, and its state-of-the-art ability to audit door events, monitor package delivery, track and resolve maintenance requests and make communication effortless among residents and staff is especially valuable during the holidays when traffic skyrockets. Equipping a building or complex with MVI’s KeyCom® provides the best apartment security available and lets residents know that management values their security—24/7, 365 days a year.

While intercom security systems have become increasingly more sophisticated, many fall short in convenience, service, and user experience. The result is that many property managers are hesitant to deploy these new technologies.

MVI’s KeyCom® was created with security and reliability in mind, fast becoming a leader in security technologies for property managers in apartment complexes, multi-family dwellings, businesses, and more.

What makes MVI KeyCom® different? Our reliability and proven security technologies have earned MVI the Best Smart Door Video Systems Provider in the United States.

Why are KeyCom® Solutions Beating the Competition?

MVI CEO Samuel Taub understands that added security features aren’t just “nice to have” when managing a building; they have become a necessity. 

“The company was originally founded with the knowledge that 86% of millennial renters in the US metropolitan areas are willing to pay up to 20% more to live in smart buildings,” Taub explains. “MVI’s initial products addressed building security and conveniences. Since then, we’ve been adding increasingly sophisticated technology to our smart video door systems to enhance functionality and further improve the resident experience.”

What makes KeyCom® the perfect security solution is our ongoing commitment to improving the technologies that keep users safe.

How Do KeyCom® Solutions Work for Users and Residents?

MVI’s KeyCom® solutions connect users to the system via their smart device. Through the app or MVI’s web portal, users can send and receive video, voice calls, text messages, and voicemail, as well as manage their account simply and easily.

How Does KeyCom® Work for Visitors?

The intuitive touch screen makes it easy for visitors to search a building directory. Visitors can then video-chat with the resident, or if the resident is not available, leave a video message.

How Does KeyCom® Work for Deliveries?

Packages are delivered to a central, secured location that is accessible to the drivers via the KeyCom® touchscreen. Property managers won’t have to handle misplaced packages or try to find lost parcels.

KeyCom® Grants Immediate Access for Maintenance Teams

Property managers love the ability to grant maintenance teams access to buildings via the touchscreen, eliminating the need for managers to provide entry for them.

KeyCom® Gives Property Managers Complete Access

Management can use MVI’s web portal to send tenant notifications building-wide, and to access reports and logs to keep residents secure.

MVI’s patented KeyCom® Smart Video Door Kiosk and Software Platform have an easy-to-use web platform and touch-free access control. MVI uses facial recognition, AI software, and other advanced technologies for layers of protection unmatched by other video intercom systems.  

KeyCom®’s proprietary access control abilities give property managers and residents alike peace of mind, knowing that only people who have been verified will be buzzed into the building. If there is an incident, property managers have access to log and detailed access events.

Property Managers Love Touch Free Access Controls

Property managers find KeyCom® technologies preferable to traditional keyed entry systems, saving money on lost key replacements and round-the-clock manned security desks. KeyCom® is a great addition to gated communities as well, reducing the need to keep guards on duty at security stations.
