A video intercom means convenience and safety — you see who is at the door or gate before you open. We install and replace video intercoms in flats and houses in Warsaw: a new kit from scratch, swapping an old intercom for video, or connecting to a gate and electric strike. We work safely, with the power off, and leave a tidy installation.

How a video intercom installation works
- We check the existing wiring and pick a kit (2-wire, 4-wire or IP/Wi-Fi).
- We switch off the power and mount the door panel at the door or gate.
- We mount the monitor inside, running new cable or using the existing wiring.
- We connect the power supply, electric strike or gate motor.
- We power up, set the image and volume, test opening and leave it tidy.
Audio or video intercom — which to choose
If you mainly need to open the door, an audio intercom is enough. If you want to see the visitor and log arrivals, choose a video intercom. For a house with a gate it is worth choosing a kit with phone viewing (IP/Wi-Fi) so you can open even from work.
Safety and common mistakes
- Working live — we always connect the power supply with the power off.
- Wrong wiring type for the kit (2- vs 4-wire) — no picture or sound.
- No planned 230 V supply at the monitor or power unit.
- A cheap outdoor panel with no moisture protection — quick failure.
Checklist before installation
- You know whether there is existing intercom wiring.
- It is clear whether we connect the gate/electric strike.
- There is space and a 230 V supply for the power unit.
- The kit type is chosen (audio/video, wired/IP).
A Warsaw example
In Wola a client had an old audio intercom and wanted to see who was calling. We swapped the monitor for a video one on the existing 2-wire line, added a camera panel and set up the view — no wall chasing, in under two hours.
Intercom installation across Warsaw districts
Most of our video intercom jobs are in Ursynów, Żoliborz and Bemowo — on large estates, swapping an old audio unit for a video door phone is our daily routine. We also regularly cover Mokotów, Praga, Targówek and Wawer, and outside Warsaw — Legionowo and Marki. We install in single-family homes as well as in apartment blocks with multi-tenant systems.
Frequently asked questions
How is a video intercom different from a regular intercom?
A regular intercom carries sound only, while a video intercom adds a picture from a camera in the door or gate panel. You see who is calling before you open — more convenient and safer.
Can you swap an old intercom for a video one without chasing walls?
Very often yes. If the flat already has intercom wiring, we mount the monitor in the same spot and connect it to the existing line or a 2-wire kit, without chasing the walls.
What kits do you install?
We install 2- and 4-wire kits and IP/Wi-Fi models with phone viewing. We match the solution to your building — a flat in a block, a detached house or a driveway gate.
Will you connect the video intercom to the gate and door strike?
Yes. We connect the door panel, the electric strike or gate motor and the monitor, so you can open the door and gate from one panel.
Is it safe — it is electricity after all?
The panel and monitor usually run on low voltage from a power supply, but the supply itself connects to the 230 V mains. We work with the power off and check the line with a meter — which is why this job is best left to a pro.
How long does the installation take?
Swapping a monitor on existing wiring is usually 1–2 hours. A full install with a new panel, power supply and gate connection — half a day. Usually same day or next day.
Which districts of Warsaw do you install video intercoms in?
All of Warsaw and the surrounding area — Mokotów, Wola, Śródmieście, Ursynów, Praga, Bielany — and houses outside the city.
We work safely and clean up after ourselves — a price upfront, arrival at a convenient time, payment after the job. Current prices are in the table above; we confirm the exact scope once you describe the building and kit. Message us through the form and we will pick a solution and a time.
