Spotlight on Intratone: Wireless Intercom & Access Control Solutions for Smarter Property Management
At Smart R Distribution, this month’s focus is on a leading manufacturer of wireless intercom and cloud-based access control systems. Our Spotlight on Intratone explores how they continue to make waves in the electronic security industry, delivering convenience, cost-efficiency, and cutting-edge functionality across the entire supply chain.
Why Smart R Distribution Supports Intratone Access Control
Installers consistently report that Intratone systems are quick and easy to install, ideal for tight project timelines. For us at Smart R Distribution, the brand’s robustness and reliability mean minimal returns or technical issues. But most importantly, by working collaboratively, Intratone, our installer network, and Smart R exceed expectations for end-users by delivering remotely managed wireless systems that provide flexibility and long-term cost savings.
Who Are Intratone?
With a UK office and over 20 years of innovation, Intratone, part of the Cogelec Group, specialises in cloud-connected property access control using the GSM/4G cellular network. Their mission? To give property managers complete control over security, cost-efficiency, and time management.
Intratone’s solutions are ideal for a wide range of applications, but they offer significant advantages in multi-tenant housing, local authority, and education sector buildings. These organisations often need to reduce costs associated with physical site visits, especially with rising labour and travel expenses. That’s where Intratone’s smart, remote access solutions come into their own.

Remote Management That Saves Time and Money
Intratone’s wireless access control systems enable property managers to remotely manage security from a laptop – no need for weekly or daily site visits. Because the systems are always-online, tasks such as servicing, diagnostics, and monitoring of internal and external doors can be completed without expensive callouts.
This not only improves operational efficiency but also contributes to long-term savings for housing associations, facilities managers, and building operators.
No Handsets, No Hassle – Just Simplified Door Entry
Intratone systems feature built-in roaming SIM cards that connect to all major UK GSM networks. This removes the need for traditional handset installations within each flat or apartment. Instead, residents can receive video calls on their smartphones or audio calls via landline.
These SIMs come with prepaid data and unlimited usage for video calling, updates, and event reporting, for up to 15 years. This feature enables accurate total cost of ownership (TCO) projections prior to installation, giving clients budget clarity from day one.
Enhanced Security – No More Fob Cloning Risks
Another major benefit of choosing Intratone is its anti-cloning technology. This advanced feature helps prevent unauthorised duplication of access fobs, ensuring building security is never compromised by undetected copies falling into the wrong hands.
A Trusted Partnership with Smart R Distribution
“Smart R was one of the first and most trusted UK distributors for Intratone products. Its technical team is probably the most experienced and knowledgeable within the electronic security industry and they are therefore the ideal distribution partner for us. Equally important, logistically, with probably the largest stock of Intratone products in the UK, Smart R can always be relied upon to deliver our products on time wherever they are needed, thus giving installers confidence they can complete projects without any delays.”
