Managing perimeter access for commercial properties remains a persistent headache for IT providers. Traditional door buzzers often lack clear visibility, while legacy hardware forces installers to patch together separate keypads, cameras, and intercoms. As a leading Australian technology distributor, Bluechip IT helps partners resolve these friction points with unified hardware. This article explores how deploying the Avigilon Intercom Touch streamlines physical security and opens high-margin revenue streams for integrators.
Rising Demand for Smart Entry Solutions
Commercial tenants now expect seamless entry management alongside stringent physical protection. According to a global market report by MarketsandMarkets, the physical access control market is projected to reach USD 13.1 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 7.4%. This demand is driven by the shift toward cloud-based architectures and smart video intercom installations.
Property managers no longer tolerate legacy hardware that requires manual code updates. Instead, they require unified platforms that combine video surveillance, visitor routing, and credential scanning at the front door.

Streamlining Deployments with Cloud Management
Installing traditional multi-tenant intercoms often required complex wiring runs to every indoor receiver unit. Conversely, the Avigilon Intercom Touch runs on a single PoE+ cable and links directly to the cloud-native Avigilon Alta platform. Tenants can answer video calls and unlock doors right from their smartphones.
Remote management enables administrators to update tenant directories instantly across multiple locations without stepping foot on site. Integrations with tenant management systems keep user directories synchronized automatically.
