How it works

Your intercom, upgraded in three steps.

Keep the intercom you already have. DoorTap adds the part it was missing: your phone.

1

Attach DoorTap

DoorTap fits onto your existing in-unit intercom. No drilling, no wiring tools, no electrician.

2

Connect to Wi-Fi

Pair it with your phone and home Wi-Fi. The whole upgrade takes about five minutes.

3

Tap to open

Someone at the building door? Press Open on your phone and let them in, wherever you are.

Why DoorTap

Never run to the buzzer again.

Open from anywhere

At work, on the train, or on the couch. If your phone is online, your door is a tap away.

Never miss a delivery

Let couriers into the lobby without leaving a note or chasing them down the stairs.

Guests, sorted

Friends, family, dog walkers, cleaners. Buzz them in on your schedule, not theirs.

No tools, no contractor

Designed so anyone can install it in about five minutes.

Keep your intercom

No replacing the panel on the wall. DoorTap works alongside the intercom your building already has.

One tap, that's it

One big button that does one thing well: opens the door.

Before & after

Same intercom. Totally different day.

Without DoorTap

  • Sprint to the wall every time someone buzzes
  • Missed packages and "sorry we missed you" slips
  • Guests stuck outside while you're on the way home

With DoorTap

  • Open the door from your phone, from any room
  • Let couriers in, even when you're not home
  • Buzz in friends before you even reach the block
