UniFi intercoms for gates and front doors
The job local IT firms rarely finish: a UniFi intercom on an automated gate, answered on your phone, with the motor and safety devices set up by the same team.
Answer the gate on your phone
A gate intercom is only useful if the call reaches you and the gate can then open. We fit the intercom, the cable back to the network, and the link into the gate controller, and we test the call before we leave.
The same page covers a front-door intercom where there is no vehicle gate. If you want fobs or a keypad as well, see UniFi Access and access control.
Camera cover of the entrance, if you want a recording as well as a live call, is UniFi Protect or the wider CCTV range.
Charged is affiliated with J&G Systems, the family IT business. J&G Systems has been a UniFi support partner since UniFi came to the UK. Charged itself is not a UniFi partner. The installs we describe come from our own experience and a portfolio of UniFi work: Protect cameras, Access, intercoms including gate intercoms, and the network that joins them up.

Questions we get asked
Yes, on the UniFi app, when the intercom is on your network. We check the call both on the home Wi-Fi and on a phone that is not on that Wi-Fi before we call the job finished.
Yes. That is the work we are set up to do. The intercom asks the gate to open. The motor and safety devices still do the moving.
No. We add an intercom to many gates that already open, if there is a sensible place for the station and a cable route.
No. Charged claims no UniFi accreditation. J&G Systems, which we are affiliated with, has been a UniFi support partner since UniFi came to the UK.
