The company also unveiled the Quadra and Mini Wifi VIP hands free kit. This features an HD camera and LED signalling on the external Quadra panel, plus an internal Mini unit with full duplex audio, echo cancelling and built in Wifi to connect to the apartment LAN, saving cost on installation. The Quadra and Maxi VIP kit shares the same features, but includes a Maxi 7-inch Wifi enabled monitor.

Also on show was the recently launched ultra-thin Mini-series of door entry monitors – the new Mini VIP hands free and Mini 2-wire models. With its smart, compact design, the series features a 4.3-inch 16:9 colour screen, contrast, colour and ringtone volume control and melody customisation. The units also have soft-touch buttons for lock release, self-ignition, switchboard call and privacy function management, integrated hearing loops and full duplex audio.

On the home automation front, the company demonstrated Simplehome, its intelligent home automation system and winner of the access control (hardware) category in the Benchmark innovation awards 2016, where the judges said that, “the system elevates the package of access control (door entry), surveillance and alarm management into a lifestyle product”.

“We are very excited about our product offering,” said Francesca Boeris, Managing Director at Comelit UK. “This includes the launch of the innovative, high-end Maxi Android door entry solution and the Quadra and Mini VIP kits, providing a cost-effective entry solution where budgets are tighter. We’ve also continued to supply solutions to some very significant sites, including the prestigious and iconic Battersea Power Station development in London.”
