Replacing ancient intercom system and door bell in multi-flat house

Hardware

Hello,
the management of the house I’m living in is about to replace a 40 years old intercom/doorbell system.
I’m en route to conscience them to install a smart system as that would be future safe.

The house has 7 independent flats with one common front.door. So there will be/is:

  • 7 receivers/video screens, one in each flat
  • 7 independent internet connection, one in each flat
  • currently 1 flat with smart lights and sockets (but don’t know any details)
  • 1 intercome system with 7 bells (one for each flat) on the front-door
  • 7 bells (may equipped with intercom too), one for each flat next to the flats’ door

Is there any recommendation for a proper system what can be easily integrated?
I cannot recommend any DIY (with Pi etc.) as is installed by a professional company.

So far I came across:

Hello,
just as of curiosity. Which solution did you choose? I have to do the same decision at the moment in a building with for 4 flats.

Thank you,

I ended up with Intercoms - 2N
the devices with 2N-OS might be better if you have to troubleshoot something but a flush box installation is not fun (I still want to 3D print an alternative…)
Touch 2.0 is Android which could be more convenient but the slim design of the 2N-OS devices is really decent.
