THE SOLUTION
By choosing DNAKE, Al Erkyah City is outfitting its properties with a flexible cloud-based system that can easily scale across its growing community. DNAKE engineers conducted in-depth evaluations of Al Erkyah's unique requirements before proposing a customized solution utilizing a combination of feature-rich door stations with HD cameras and 7-inch touchscreen indoor monitors. Residents of Al Erkyah City will enjoy advanced features such as indoor monitoring via DNAKE smart life APP, remote unlocking, and integration with home alarm systems.
At this large community, high-resolution 4.3'' video door phones were installed at key access points leading into the buildings. The crisp video provided by these devices enabled the security personnel or the residents to visually identify visitors requesting entry from the video door phone. The high-quality video from the door phones gave them confidence in assessing potential risks or suspicious behavior without having to personally greet every single visitor. Additionally, the wide-angle camera on the door phones provided a comprehensive view of the entry areas, allowing the residents to keep a close eye on the surroundings for maximum visibility and oversight. Positioning the 4.3'' door phones at carefully selected entry points allowed the complex to leverage its investment in this video intercom security solution for optimal monitoring and access control across the property.
A major factor in Al Erkyah City's decision was DNAKE's flexible offering for indoor intercom terminals. DNAKE's slim-profile 7’’ indoor monitors were installed in a total of 205 apartments. Residents benefit from convenient video intercom capabilities directly from their suite, including a clear high-quality display for video verification of visitors, intuitive touch controls through the flexible Linux OS, and remote access and communication via smartphone apps. In summary, the large 7'' Linux indoor monitors deliver residents an advanced, convenient, and smart intercom solution for their homes.
THE RESULT
Residents will find the communication system remains at the cutting edge thanks to DNAKE's over-the-air update capability. New capabilities can be seamlessly rolled out to indoor monitors and door stations without costly site visits. With DNAKE intercom, Al Erkyah City can now provide a smart, connected, and future-ready intercom communication platform matching the innovation and growth of this new community.
