A major security upgrade is planned for the Stanley & Roden building, commencing March 2026.
In the last half of 2025 the Stanley & Roden Owners Corporation Committee undertook a comprehensive security and infrastructure review designed to enhance the building safety and convenience of all residents. After reviewing proposals from three major security companies, the committee selected Eversafe Australia for the installation of a new access control system, high-definition camera surveillance, and improved building-wide networking.
The building will transition to the Inner Range Inception System, an Australian-designed platform that replaces older entry methods with more secure, modern alternatives.
Encrypted Access: Residents will be issued encrypted SIFER fobs for building access, plus be able to enter the building using Bluetooth-enabled mobile credentials.
Expanded Coverage: New secure access FOB access points will be added to the stairwells, bike room, bin room, communications room, storage areas, and lifts.
Intercom Integration: The system links with the building’s intercom, allowing residents to securely authorize guest entry.
Emergency Safety: The system is integrated with the building’s fire indicator panel; in the event of an alarm, all doors are programmed to fail-safe (unlock) for safety.
A high-performance Hikvision CCTV system will be installed to provide better visibility and deterrence in common areas.
High-Definition Cameras: 18 new 6-megapixel turret cameras featuring ColorVu technology will provide clear, high-quality color images during both day and night.
Strategic Coverage: Cameras will be positioned to monitor key areas, including the carpark entry, main entry points, lifts, and general common areas.
Reliable Recording: The system includes a 32-channel recorder with 20TB of storage to ensure footage is available for review if incidents occur.
To support the new security hardware and improve overall building operations, the networking infrastructure is being modernised.
Mesh Wi-Fi: Enterprise-grade Wi-Fi access points will be installed in basement levels B1 & B2 to enable Wi-Fi calling or messaging in case of emergency.
System Stability: New dedicated cabling, switches, and a central communications cabinet will be installed in the Comms room on B1 to ensure the security systems remain online and stable.
The proposal includes integrating the property's roller door into the main security system. This will allow residents to use their standard building fobs or mobile apps to operate the garage door, reducing the need for separate remotes.
FOB controls: The current system has very limited capability in terms of being able to track, enable or disable FOBs remotely. The upgraded system will introduce 100% accountability for all issued FOBs, with the ability to enable/disable each remotely. Replacement FOB cost will also decrease.
Limited timed access: Tradesmen or other workers can be issued building access codes that will enable them to access nominated building levels for a set period (hours, days etc).
Mobile app: Once installed and authorised, a mobile app will allows residents to access major system functions and features.
NB. This upgrade is subject to final specification approval.
