How do you know it\u2019s time to update or upgrade your apartment building\u2019s video intercom system?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re Constantly Handing out Replacement Keys and Cards<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether it\u2019s tenant turnover or simply a matter of occupants losing their entry keys and cards, replacing these items can be costly and time-consuming. Aside from the physical replacement of lost or stolen keys, your building may need to rekey the doors entirely to ensure security.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, both new and vacating tenants create challenges to the security of an apartment building, from deleting or adding them to a database to ensuring they have returned all copies of the door keys or entry cards. Upgrading to a new video intercom system can streamline these processes for both property owners and tenants alike.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re Behind the Times<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It doesn\u2019t make sense to hang on to outdated technology when there are so many better options available. Today\u2019s video intercom access systems use AI technology, apps, and smart devices for granting building entry. Upgrading your system allows tenants to control access, no matter where they are.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, limited permissions can be granted for delivery drivers or maintenance personnel to have access to the building.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re Looking to Save Money<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Video intercom systems will decrease your reliance on front-desk security guards because they allow tenants to grant, limit, or block access to non-residents. These systems are excellent choices for gated communities, eliminating the need for 24\/7 manned security booths in the building\u2019s parking lots or access roads.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your Area is Seeing an Increase in Crime<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Crime is on the rise throughout the United States. If your building is in an area seeing this increase, you will need to upgrade your security systems for the safety and peace of mind of your tenants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s been found that 86% of millennials will not only stay longer in buildings with upgraded access control technology, but they will also <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/mvisystems.com\/6-reasons-to-install-video-access-system-in-apartment-buildings\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pay up to 20%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> more to live there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Upgraded video intercom systems will feature event logs, real-time monitoring and recording of door activity, and increased control of the building by managers and owners. These reports are important to have in case of an emergency event within the building and can be given to law enforcement following criminal activity.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your Old Video Intercom System is Failing<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you find yourself repeatedly repairing an old intercom system, it\u2019s time to replace or upgrade it with new technology. Some signs that the old system is failing can include buzzing or distorted sound, fuzzy picture quality, or an increase in tenant issues and complaints with accessing the building or interacting with visitors.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">See How MVI is Shaping Security for Apartment Buildings\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MVI, an <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.prweb.com\/releases\/mvi_recognized_as_2021s_most_innovative_cost_saving_building_development_solution_by_new_world_report\/prweb18347749.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">award-winning video-access control solution<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for commercial and multi-family properties, streamlines video access control solutions and smart technologies to provide the highest level of security for buildings.
