For strata managers & owners corporations
Security upgrades for apartment buildings, planned properly
We review your intercom, access control and CCTV together, then upgrade them in a planned, staged way, so the building gets fewer call-outs, better control and systems the manager can actually run.

The problems that keep coming back to the strata manager
1
An unreliable intercom
Residents miss visitors and deliveries, and the complaints keep landing on the manager’s desk.
2
Lost fobs and no remote control
Credentials can’t be cancelled easily, so lost fobs stay active and every change needs a call-out.
3
Cameras that don’t help when needed
Poor coverage, unclear footage, or nobody knows how to retrieve a recording after an incident.
4
A patchwork of systems
Different contractors over the years, no documentation, and no single view of what the building actually has.



Site review
Start with an honest look at what the building has
Before recommending anything, we inspect the existing systems and explain what is working, what isn’t and what can wait.
- Condition of each system: intercom, access control, CCTV and the cabling and equipment behind them.
- Security weak points, such as vulnerable entries, car park access and shared credentials.
- What can be reused, so you don’t pay to replace equipment that is still sound.
- Prioritised recommendations with options, so the committee can decide what to do now and what to plan for later.
Written for committees
Our proposals are set out in plain English, with findings, options and priorities, so the strata manager can table them and the committee can make a confident decision.
Where it helps, upgrades can be staged across budget periods, starting with what’s failing.
Upgrade in the order that makes sense

Fix what’s failing

Common questions from strata managers and committees
What does a site review involve?
We inspect the existing intercom, access control and CCTV, look at the cabling and equipment behind them, and talk to the manager about recurring issues. You then receive written findings and options.
Do we need to replace everything?
Not necessarily. We reuse equipment and cabling that is still sound and focus spending where it fixes real problems.
Can the work be staged across budget periods?
Yes. We can prioritise the proposal so urgent items are done first and the rest is planned for later budgets.
Will residents need new fobs or remotes?
Sometimes, depending on the system. Where credentials need re-enrolling, we plan the logistics with the manager to keep disruption low.
Do you deal directly with our strata manager?
Yes. We work with strata managers and committees and prepare proposals in a format that is easy to table for approval.
