Project Overview

Client: London & Quadrant (L&Q)
Location: Grampian House, Edmonton, London N9
Scope: High-rise residential block (built 1972, Enfield Borough) with 233 flats across 27 levels

Security as the Top Priority

Residents demand a secure access system where proximity key fobs cannot be cloned.

The IPGUARD® Smart Visitor and Resident Access Control System ensures:

  • Anti-clone protection for proximity keys and vehicle gate transmitters

  • Each issued key carries a unique 10-digit engraved ID

  • No duplicates are permitted, ensuring residents remain safe

👉 A system is only fit for purpose if it prevents entry via cloned keys — and IPGUARD® guarantees this.

Installation at Grampian House

The previous hardwired video entry system was outdated, costly to maintain, and required monitors in every flat.

L&Q faced two options:

  1. Expensive and disruptive reinstallation with months of work, even if reusing cables

  2. IPGUARD® Smart Visitor Door Entry – faster, more affordable, and modern

Outcome:

  • Installed and commissioned within one week

  • Zero resident complaints

  • No cabling into flats required

  • No in-flat monitors or riser equipment to maintain

Easy for Visitors & Residents

All entrances and lobby doors are fitted with IPGUARD® Smart Audio/Visual Visitor Panels.

Visitor Features:

  1. Video call any flat, concierge, or remote management office

  2. Residents and staff can open doors and gates remotely

  3. Integrated resident access control on main and secondary entrances
