Fermax are delighted to have been able to offer an ideal, cost effective solution to allow installation partners to complete a successful upgrade of a large apartment complex in Nottingham. Working with its approved partner FSE Security systems and involving over 90 apartments at Marina Park Nottingham, the challenge was to upgrade an old, third-party audio only system to a modern audio-video system with the minimum of disturbance to residents and without incurring excessive high cost.

By using the Fermax 2 Wire Duox system, with SKYLINE surface mounted panels and VEO-XS 6at screen hands-free video monitors, the installation was completed using existing cables throughout, achieving major reductions in time and material cost.

Residents were delighted to be able to upgrade to the new Fermax VEO-XS monitor using innovative 2 wire DUOX technology offering the high-quality performance of a purely digital system. As well as its modern slim-line design, the VEO XS hands-free monitors included the added benefit of image storage and retrieval using the PHOTOCALLER function. This enables residents to view images of visitors and callers to their apartment whilst they were not at home.

A delighted installer commented, “The cables were a selection of cat 5. 8 core alarm cable and 6at twin 0.5 mains 6ex all cables suited the DUOX system which was easy to install and easy to program, most of all it was user friendly, which to me as an installer is the most important quality”.
