Our Most Frequently Asked Questions

Beacon Protection offers five core multifamily security solutions: access control, video intercom, smart apartment technology, vehicle access management, and elevator control. Each system is custom-designed for your property’s layout and tenant profile. We professionally install every system and provide 24/7 support. Together, these integrated solutions help property managers monitor entry points, secure shared amenities, and create a safer, more appealing place to live.
Multifamily access control systems regulate entry to your building’s main entrances, shared amenities, parking areas, and individual floors using keycards, key fobs, PIN codes, or smartphones. Every entry is logged with a timestamp and user identity, giving property managers a complete audit trail. Beacon Protection’s access control solutions let managers instantly add or remove tenant credentials without re-keying, and restrict access by time, floor, or zone throughout the property.
A video intercom system lets residents see, hear, and talk to visitors at the building entrance before granting access — either from a wall panel or their smartphone. Beacon Protection’s multifamily video intercom systems feature resident directories, remote unlock capability, two-way audio and video, and smartphone integration. This replaces outdated buzzer systems, eliminates the need for residents to physically come to the door, and gives property managers full oversight and control of building access.
A smart apartment system brings the convenience of smart home technology — typically only seen in single-family homes — into individual multifamily units. Beacon Protection’s smart apartment solutions may include smart locks, thermostat control, lighting automation, and in-unit security features, all managed through a single app. For property managers, smart apartment technology also enables remote access management, maintenance alerts, and automated lockouts, lowering operational costs while increasing resident satisfaction and attracting higher-quality tenants.
Vehicle access control systems manage who can enter gated parking areas, garages, and driveways at a multifamily property using license plate recognition, key fobs, smartphones, or access cards. Beacon Protection’s vehicle access solutions allow property managers to grant or revoke parking access remotely, log all vehicle entries and exits, and prevent unauthorized parking or trespassing. Residents get better protection for their vehicles and a smoother experience every time they come home.
Elevator control limits which floors a person can access after entering, ensuring only residents, staff, and authorized visitors can reach specific units, private amenities, or restricted areas. Beacon Protection’s elevator control systems integrate with the building’s access control platform, so the same credential a tenant uses to enter the front door also determines which floors they can visit. This prevents unauthorized individuals — including tailgaters who follow others through the main entrance — from accessing residential floors or private amenities.
Yes. Beacon Protection designs multifamily security systems with integration in mind. Access control, video intercom, smart apartment, and vehicle access systems can be connected to a unified management platform, allowing property managers to handle tenant onboarding, access permissions, and security monitoring from one interface. When a resident moves out, their access can be deactivated instantly across all entry points — front door, parking, elevator, and amenity areas — without any manual re-keying or hardware changes.
Off-the-shelf intercom and access products like ButterflyMX or Kisi are designed for simple, self-managed setups and work well for small properties. However, they lack the scalability, local licensing compliance, and dedicated support that larger or multi-building communities require. Beacon Protection provides professional site assessment, licensed installation across six states, custom system design for complex property layouts, and 24/7 ongoing support — ensuring that every entry point, parking area, elevator, and amenity space is covered and compliant from day one.
Yes. Beacon Protection provides licensed multifamily security services in New Jersey (NJ Lic #34BF00057200), New York (NY Lic #12000312851), Pennsylvania (PA Lic #133639), Connecticut (CT Lic #ELC.0206709-C5), Massachusetts (MA Lic #SS-003409), and Florida (FL Lic #EG13000699). Proper state licensing is especially important for multifamily properties, as local regulations often require licensed contractors for access control, fire safety, and intercom system installations in residential buildings.
