Description
Managing access for a multi-unit building shouldn't mean constant trips to the door — the Viking K-1205-EWP puts clear color video, one-touch calling, and door strike control all in one weatherproof panel your residents and staff can actually rely on.
This 12-button apartment entry phone features a built-in high-resolution color video camera with wide viewing angle and tilt/swivel adjustment, so you always know exactly who's at the door before granting access. Each of the 12 buttons is pre-programmed with up to 22-digit speed dial numbers, so visitors just press once — no separate call button needed. When the call ends, the unit hangs up automatically on CPC, busy signal, silence, time-out, or dial tone return, keeping the line free for the next visitor. Built-in integral relays handle both camera control and door strike release, and 50 keyless entry codes give residents a convenient PIN-based entry option without any additional hardware.
With Enhanced Weather Protection and an operating temperature range of -30°F to 150°F, the K-1205-EWP holds up in harsh outdoor conditions from freezing northern winters to scorching southern summers. It runs on 12 to 24V AC or DC power, works with the Viking C-1000B for no-CO (phone line) operation, and is VE-LIGHT compatible for low-light visibility at night.
Our Expert Take: The K-1205-EWP is a strong fit for apartment buildings, condos, and gated communities where you want individual tenant buttons, live video confirmation, and door strike release all in one tidy panel. The 50 keyless entry codes are a genuinely useful feature for property managers who want to give maintenance staff or delivery personnel temporary PIN access without issuing physical keys. If your installation site has very low ambient light, pair it with the VE-LIGHT accessory to keep the camera useful around the clock.
