Resident Instruction Sheet
Your building / community has been equipped with a DoorKing Telephone Entry System that will provide
communication for your guest from the lobby door / gated entrance to your home by use of the local telephone
network. If you have any questions regarding the use or operation of this system, please see your system
administrator (building manager / HOA representative) or call
Guest Communication
Your name (or apartment number) and telephone number have been programmed into the telephone entry system
under a specific DIRECTORY CODE. This directory code can be from 1 to 4 digits long depending on the needs of
the application. When a guest comes to visit you, they will look your name up in the electronic directory by using the
A and Z buttons on the faceplate of the system. Once your guest has located your name, your DIRECTORY CODE
will be displayed to the right of your name. Your guest will enter this code on the system keypad that will cause the
system to place a call to your home (If your guest already knows your directory code, they can simply enter the code
on the keypad without having to look up your name). Some systems are equipped with a CALL button. When your
name is displayed in the directory, the guest can press the CALL button to establish communication with your home.

Granting or Denying Access
Once you have answered the phone call and you have identified your guest, you have the choice to either grant access
or deny access to your guest.
To grant access to your guest, press on your touch-tone telephone. The telephone entry system will respond
with a confirmation tone indicating that the door or gate is opening and will automatically disconnect itself. Some
newer telephones emit a very short duration tone when the number is pressed. If your telephone does this, you may
have to press the open number twice in rapid succession to open the door or gate.
To deny access to your guest, press the # key.
Rotary Phone Only. If you have a rotary dial phone, dial 9 to grant access. To deny access, hang up.
