For more information on the materials used to manufacture our intercoms, please review our Access Control System specifications.
What’s needed to install ButterflyMX Access Control Systems?
ButterflyMX Access Control Systems only require three connections to be installed at your property: internet, power, and door strike. For more information on how to install our Access Control Systems, please visit our installation resources page.
Do you install your Access Control Systems?
No, our access control systems and other products are installed by a local low-voltage installer, typically the same person who installed your electronic locks or the security system at your property.
We do, however, have a nationwide network of certified installers that we can recommend if you need assistance in installing our products. Contact us to get connected with an installer in your area.
Is ButterflyMX free?
Yes, ButterflyMX is free for tenants, residents, and visitors to use.
ButterflyMX charges the property owner a one-time fee to purchase our hardware products including our Video Intercoms, Access Control Systems, Package Rooms, Vehicle Access Systems, and Elevator Controls. The property owner also pays an annual software fee per apartment unit to get live video, remote property access and management, and new feature updates.
To get a quote for your property, please contact sales or call 800-398-4416.
Does ButterflyMX charge to download the mobile app?
No, ButterflyMX does not charge to download our mobile app — it’s free for anyone to use. You can download it from the Apple or Android store. Once you’ve downloaded it, provide your email address to your property owner or manager so they can register you.
Do I need a smartphone to use ButterflyMX?
No, you do not need a smartphone to use ButterflyMX. Our Video Intercom and Access Control System also works with any normal telephone, PIN codes, fobs, or keycards. When you have a visitor, a call is made to your telephone number and you can press ‘9’ to open the door or gate for them.
To view entry logs, issue Visitor Passes, or create Delivery PINs, you can log in to your online account.
Do you warranty your products?
