Intercom Systems
Knightsbridge Locksmiths fits video and audio intercom systems for homes and businesses across Knightsbridge and London — wired properly, tested through every unit, and set up so residents actually know who's at the door before they answer.
Not Every Intercom System Is the Same Job
A single flat's video entry panel is a very different job from wiring a communal block with a dozen units, and a shopfront buzzer needs neither. Telling us the building type before we arrive means the right panel, wiring route and number of handsets are already planned.
Single Homes
A video or audio panel at the front door, wired to one handset or a phone app, fitted without unnecessary disruption.
Communal Blocks
One panel wired to every flat, each resident able to see and speak to callers before buzzing them in.
Shops & Offices
Door entry systems that let staff screen visitors and deliveries without leaving the till or desk.
What Our Intercom Installers Can Do For You
From a single video panel on a front door to a full communal entry system, one engineer sees the job through — quoted before we start, explained fully once it's fitted.
Panels, Wiring and What Actually Matters
An intercom system is only as good as its weakest link — a sharp video panel wired badly to a handset that crackles is no better than a plain buzzer. We fit and configure every component to work together properly, not just wire in whatever's cheapest.
Video & audio panels
Clear picture and sound at the door, so residents actually know who's calling before they answer.
Reliable wiring, done once
Cable runs routed properly through the building, not patched together to save an hour on site.
App & mobile handset options
Answer the door from a wall handset or a phone, whichever suits the household or the building.
Weatherproof, tidy fitting
Outdoor panels rated for the British weather, with cabling routed cleanly rather than left exposed.
Built on Proof, Not Promises
Surveyed before it's quoted
We walk the property with you and plan the wiring route and panel positions before any figure is given.
Priced before work starts
Panel type, handset count and any app setup are quoted upfront — no surprises on the invoice.
Fully licensed and insured
Our engineers carry ID and full public liability cover on every job, residential or commercial.

Intercom Installation Across Our Coverage Areas
Buildings change street by street across Central London — here's how an intercom installation looks in four of the areas we cover most.
Intercom Systems Knightsbridge (SW7)
Period conversions around Beauchamp Place and private mews houses off Brompton Road both call for panels that suit the frontage without cutting into original brickwork more than necessary. We survey each property individually rather than fitting a standard kit.
Intercom Systems Chelsea & Belgravia (SW3 / SW1X)
King's Road retail units and the office space around Eaton Square both fall inside our patch. Commercial systems here let staff screen visitors and deliveries from a desk or till point without leaving their post.
Intercom Systems South Kensington (SW7)
Dense with converted flats around Exhibition Road and Gloucester Road, where a shared entrance usually needs one panel wired out to every unit, so each resident can see and speak to a caller before buzzing them in.
Intercom Systems Pimlico & Belgravia (SW1P / SW1E)
The terraced streets around Warwick Way and Eaton Square see a steady mix of home and small-office installs, where a clear video image at the door matters as much as reliable wiring behind the wall.

FAQs — Intercom Systems
What's the difference between audio and video intercom?
Audio panels let you hear a caller and buzz them in; video panels add a live picture so you can actually see who's there first. Most homes and blocks now go for video, with audio as the simpler, cheaper option.
Can I answer the intercom from my phone?
Yes — app-connected systems let you see and speak to callers remotely, useful for buildings where residents aren't always by the wall handset.
Do you install intercoms for communal blocks as well as single homes?
Yes — one panel wired out to every flat in a block, each with its own handset or app access, alongside standard single-property installs.
How long does installation take?
A single-property system is usually completed within a day. Communal blocks depend on the number of units and existing wiring, and we'll give a realistic timeframe at the survey.
Can an intercom be added to an existing door entry system?
Often yes — we assess what's already wired in during the survey and reuse it where the cabling and panel are still sound, rather than ripping everything out by default.
Do you cover installations outside Knightsbridge?
Yes — alongside our core Knightsbridge, Chelsea and Belgravia ground, we install intercom systems for homes and businesses across Central London and the surrounding boroughs.
