Intercom replacement

Hi guys, I am looking to replace the door entry intercom in my apartment. There is a Urmet handset in place at the moment.



I would like to replace this with a smart handset that would dial an external number and allow me to open the door remotely. Is something like this possible?

If you want something really flexible and cloud-free, you may want to have a look at the doorpi project. Please note that doorpi requires a SIP server in your local network, e.g. a Fritz!Box router.

Thanks guys. I was able to pick up a nello for super cheap. I hope I can get it wired up as my model wasn’t listed on the site.

I am waiting for my Dahua VT2000A + VTH1510 to ship + POE switch
Video intercom with SIP integration :wink:
Requires some work but doeas all you said (plus much more if in the backend there is an asterisk pbx)

It turns out the nello isn’t compatible with my system because it is digital. They only seem to work with analogue.

I might have to look at the doorpi solutions or some other alternative.

What’d you end up doing here? I’m trying to get the same thing going but I don’t have a phone but an Ideal Voice Intercom

Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get a solution setup. My intercom is digital and nello doesn’t support it. I just checked your intercom on the nello site and it also doesn’t seem to be supported. Nello has recently ceased operation so it doesn’t look like there’ll be any further updates.
Nuki have released a similar product but again it doesn’t work with my intercom or yours. They are obviously still operational which means something could become available at a later date


I’m not sure if doorpi is an option for me with my intercom being digital.

Yea I found this thread: How to simulate an intercom button press? (need to hack door intercom to open entry door into my building for delivery) with the repo here: https://github.com/amirandap/Smart-Intercom

It looks like he was able to get it to work. So I’m trying to go down this route.

I have the same one in my apartment but I don’t which model this is. Can anyone help me please?
