Customer Success Stories
An Intelligent Access System from 2N Is Now Protecting a School Building
The school building in Prague-Troja is used by three institutions – an elementary school, a high-school and the local municipality offices. The building was using an outdated access system that began to malfunction and it was time for a change. The first requirement was to resolve access for all three institutions, enabling separated entry points and creating individual zones and restrictions related to the time of day.
„The 2N access system ensures quality protection for our school, yet the use and administration is simple. The new video intercoms are a great help, as well as registrations using RFID cards that each student or visitor has in their wallet.“

Access Control for Casino
Located in the heart of Riga, Latvia, a new casino grew up. In order to secure the casino, a reliable access control system had to be installed. It had to cover entrances and create security zones within the establishment. Tracking an attendance of employees, user-friendliness and IP background of the system were a must. As a result, an integrator and our partner DTG chose an access control from 2N.
„We like to work with 2N, because their products and solutions are reliable and the management software is easy to operate. The fact that 2N can be integrated into Milestone and works with AXIS, is a real advantage for clients who think about such solution.“

A7 Office Center: Transition from Analogue to IP
The facility manager, CBRE Group, required the modernisation of the obsolete decentralised system of analogue intercoms that were installed on the original premises of the now modernised administrative buildings and shops at the A7 Office Center in Prague.
„With the aid of the 2N® NetStar communication system and 2N® IP Vario intercoms, we managed to consolidate communication at the entrance to individual buildings of the A7 Office Center in Prague.“

2N Access Control for Luxury Apartments
A building, once used as a hospital, in the centre of London was to be turned into 24 apartments. The building was intended for the high-end market, with requirements for luxury equipment and the latest technologies. Integration with a Control4 home automation systems and remote answering of calls from the door were a must. Finally, delivered by our partner CIE and installed by Imaginise, 2N products were implemented.
„I would certainly recommend the 2N system over the competition - it’s proved to have the scalability, the interface and the user-friendly applications that are second nature to people these days. It really is 21st Century technology.“
