Description
Secure high-traffic entry points with a vandal-resistant flush-mount talkback doorplate speaker using the Valcom V-1073, an 11-gauge steel speaker with one-way tamper-resistant screws, a CALL button, and a white paintable faceplate that mounts in a standard double gang electric box.
The Telecom Spot Expert Review
The V-1073 combines the access control function of a doorplate intercom with physical security construction that resists tampering and unauthorized removal — making it the right doorplate for juvenile detention facilities, psychiatric units, correctional common areas, and any institutional entry point where a standard doorplate would be quickly damaged or removed. The 11-gauge steel faceplate is significantly more rigid than the stamped sheet metal or plastic used in standard doorplates, and one-way screws prevent removal with standard tools. The white paintable surface allows the faceplate to blend with the surrounding painted wall when finished, reducing visual prominence without the expense of a custom-color unit. The weather-resistant rating supports exterior entry installations where the doorplate is exposed to rain and temperature variation. Standard double gang electric box mounting keeps the rough-in conventional. CALL button initiates talkback contact from the visitor side.
