Hikvision integration for video intercom and door access
Unitify’s resident app connects to Hikvision video intercoms and door controllers through the device’s own interface (ISAPI, SIP), so residents answer the call and open the door in the same app. It is set up under the project, not as a ready-made plug-in for every model.
What it does
Hikvision IP video intercoms and door or access controllers expose an integration interface (ISAPI, SIP). Unitify uses it to bring the video call, door opening and, where the device supports it, access credentials into the resident app. What is available depends on the exact model and is confirmed before the contract.
How it works
- 1
Hikvision hardware with an interface
The building’s intercom panel, door controller or camera is a Hikvision device that exposes ISAPI, SIP.
- 2
We connect it under the project
Unitify’s engineers connect the device to the resident app and test the call and door opening on your exact model.
- 3
One app for the whole building
Video intercom, door access, bills, requests and announcements in one resident app.
Frequently asked questions
Do residents need a separate Hikvision app?
No. The video call and door opening from Hikvision hardware run inside the Unitify resident app residents already use.
Which Hikvision models can be connected?
Models that expose an integration interface (ISAPI, SIP). We check the exact model before the contract, because available functions depend on it.
Can residents open the door from the app?
Yes, where the model supports remote unlock through its interface. We confirm this on your model during scoping.
Is this a ready-made connector?
No. The connection is set up under the project for your building, which is how we keep it matched to the hardware you actually have.
Does this replace our existing intercom hardware?
No. It connects to Hikvision hardware already installed or being installed; it is not a software-only substitute for the physical panel.
