Virtual Call Box
A safe, modern, low-cost alternative to traditional call-box.
Our Virtual Call Box is designed to deliver a enhanced access experience that benefits guests, residents and communities.
Visitors simply call the displayed number at the gate using any kind of phone to access the dial-by-name directory.
Smartphone users can simply scan the provided QR code for instant, one-tap directory access, then use dial-by-name to connect with a resident who may grant access remotely.
This service provides the familiar call-box experience without the cost, maintenance, or limitations of physical hardware.
Virtual Call Box Benefits:
Seamless Platform Integration: Uses Tap2Open accounts. No separate database or management needed.
Vandal-proof: With no physical hardware at the gate, there's nothing to be damaged, accidentally or on purpose
Resident Control: Residents can easily opt in or out of the system from the Tap2Open Dashboard. They can even set their own "do not disturb" schedules if they desire.
Combined Visitor Log: The system automatically logs the calling party's phone number, caller ID (if available), and vehicle license plate (with compatible ALPR cameras).
Accessibility for All: Visitors and residents only need a basic flip phone to use the system—no smartphone required.
Weather Protection: No more rolling down windows in bad weather or extreme temperatures. Visitors can call from the comfort of their vehicle.
Selective blocking: Residents can block nuisance guests selectively.
Continuous Communication: Conversations can continue even after guests have passed through the gate, perfect for providing driving directions or further assistance once inside the community.
