Everything
just sped up

“Bamford Doors and Intratone have come together to elevate security across 240 communal entrances in Mansfield, delivering a seamless, efficient upgrade that prioritises tenant safety and operational efficiency.”

– Streamlining Security Upgrades for Mansfield District Council

“At The Willows development in Aldershot, Hampshire, there are 106 private flats, houses, and affordable homes. The previous wired buzzer-style intercoms required urgent repair or replacement due to years of vandalism and frequent ongoing maintenance visits. We chose the robust, wireless SC-01 intercom, which is also connected to a secure online remote management system. This ensures that the property’s access control not only meets the needs of the buildings and residents but also stands the test of time. It has already proven to be more efficient for both tenants and our team”

– Liam O’ Sullivan, CEO and Founder of GH Property Management

“The installation process was great – it was 100 times easier than upgrading the old wired systems! We didn’t have to run cables up 12 floors and importantly, there was no need for engineers to access apartments to install new handsets, which would have been disruptive and time-consuming at a time when many residents were working from home.”

– Ray O’Shaughnessy – Property Manager at the site

“We decided to use Intratone for a number of reasons, and we like the flexibility of the cloud portal for programming IDs or Intercoms, we like the fact that we don’t have to get into flats to replace or maintain systems; it can now be done from tenant’s mobile or landline phones, and also this cost implication not having to go in the flat and also buying the 15 years data packages… for these reasons Intratone stood out against all the competitors.”

– Shane Ainsworth – Senior Electrical Technical Officer – Nottingham City Homes

“I have been working with Intratone from the last 2 years and we’ve installed over 50 systems in 50 different blocs. It was a massive cost savings from the Intratone systems. We found out that we are actually saving around £2000 a year per block. It’s not only the savings from no access or being stuck outside the flats; we also got savings from installations. We are able to reduce our carbon footprint because we are using less plastic and fewer materials during installations. It really aligns with Pobl values.”

– Richard Coombes- Senior Project Manager – Pobl Group

“Managing access control with the previous system was a nightmare. The two properties were located far apart, which frequently meant driving back and forth to grant access to contractors or tenants. Now, having everything in one place puts us back in control.”

“We first started a trial site using the intercom system and we got very good tenants feedbacks. We transitioned to newer schemes using the Intratone system. Additionally, in some scheme, we have installed the Digital Notice Boards to get key information across the residents. The reason why we installed those Notice boards is to make sure our tenants all have the latest information from ourselves including Health and Safety Information, damp and mold, any maintenance issues and also providing satisfaction surveys on them, allowing us to save time and reduce costs. Using Intratone Digital Notice board makes communicating with tenants more efficient.”

– Jordan Knowles – Compliance Surveyor – Newark and Sherwood Council

“During lockdown, I was able to modify resident details quickly and easily when new tenants moved in, or when existing residents left the property. I can delete phone numbers or add them to the system without any hassle at all, and these processes take less than 30 seconds on my computer – with just a few clicks.”

– Sean Eckton – Director at HMS Property Management

“Intratone was recommended by an installer and, so far, we have been very impressed – although it is a sizeable investment for the council initially, the build and technology of the readers means that they will last for at least ten years. The simplicity of the database is such that some of our concierge and caretakers are being trained to manage the system themselves, which frees up even more of the engineers’ time. With the older technology, residents were able to copy fobs in some local shops which did not give the council full control over who could access certain blocks. With the new Intratone fobs, you cannot rewrite or copy them so when someone tries to use a copied fob, it sends the system a notification.”
