How to set up Protobuzz across any building or rental

From forwarding your buzzer to crafting guest automations, this guide walks residents, co-hosts, and property teams through every step so Protobuzz feels reliable on day one.

Before you start

Make sure you have access to your building directory or can contact the property manager who controls it. You will also need the buzzer number currently assigned to your unit.

If your intercom calls a landline or mobile number today, Protobuzz will work. No panel upgrades or electricians required.

Set up Protobuzz in three steps

1

Install and configure Protobuzz

Download the iOS or Android app, sign in, and verify the number that should answer buzzer calls.

2

Share your virtual number

Copy the virtual number from the app and give it to your property contact so they can update the building directory (add backups once it’s live).

3

Create rules for your lifestyle

Issue reusable or time-boxed codes and layer on notifications, logs, or Google Calendar sync so entry rules follow your routines automatically.

Automate and share access

After testing calls, explore automation recipes. You can forward unanswered calls to concierge teams, buzz in deliveries during scheduled windows, or send alerts to roommates when a guest arrives.

Property managers can roll out Protobuzz across multiple entrances and buildings. Start by following the property manager onboarding plan.
