Description
Need a full-featured apartment entry system but can't flush mount into the wall? The Viking AES-2000S delivers the same 75-apartment capacity and remote programming capability as the AES-2000F in a surface mount configuration that installs directly to any flat wall surface.
Visitors scroll through the backlit display to find residents, enter direct access codes on the stainless steel keypad, or use the voice announcer for clear communication. Non-volatile memory retains all names, phone numbers, and access codes through power outages. A built-in modem enables complete remote programming so property managers can update tenant lists without visiting the panel. The system is field expandable from 75 to 525 apartments — no controller replacement needed as your property grows. Postal lock input and TTY jack round out the accessibility and mail carrier access features.
Our Expert Take: The AES-2000S is the retrofit-friendly companion to the AES-2000F — same feature set and expandability, no rough-in box required. It's a practical choice for existing buildings where wall penetration is impractical or where the panel is mounted on a post, pedestal, or kiosk.
