Comelit 1219 Name Tag Sheets for Vandalcom Entrance Panel
The Comelit 1219 is a consumable label kit designed for multi-unit residential and commercial access control installations using Comelit Vandalcom entrance panels. The kit supplies adhesive nameplate sheets and information module labels — replacement stock for tenant identification, unit numbering, and visitor wayfinding at the entrance point. Use this when commissioning new Vandalcom systems, refreshing worn or damaged labels during ongoing maintenance, or managing tenant turnover across multi-family or commercial office environments.
Key Features
- Adhesive Nameplate Sheets: 10 sheets of pre-printed white labels sized to fit Vandalcom panel nameplate windows. No special application tools required — peel-and-stick installation reduces on-site labor time.
- Information Module Labels: 7 sheets of adhesive label stock for unit numbers, tenant names, or building directory text. Works with standard marking pens or thermal-print labeling for flexible tenant identification workflows.
- Vandalcom Compatibility: Engineered for Comelit Vandalcom entrance panel form factors. Label dimensions and adhesive backing are optimized to prevent peeling or moisture infiltration in outdoor or semi-exposed entrance vestibules.
- Consumable Replacement Stock: Intended as periodic replenishment — tenant changes, label wear, or label damage require stock rotation. One kit typically covers 10–15 unit label cycles depending on panel density.
- White Label Finish: High-contrast white background for legibility under variable outdoor lighting and security camera visibility. Resists UV fading and moisture in temperate climates.
- No Special Tools: Adhesive-backed design eliminates need for separate mounting hardware or fasteners — installation is peel-and-stick, reducing commissioning time and on-site material costs.
The Vandalcom entrance panel is the primary tenant-facing interface in multi-unit residential buildings and office complexes — it handles call routing, visitor screening, and unit selection. Legible, properly organized name tags are operational necessities; illegible or missing labels drive tenant complaints and visitor confusion. The 1219 kit keeps label stock on hand for routine maintenance cycles and unexpected damage replacement.
Comelit Vandalcom installations span both outdoor and semi-protected environments. Adhesive quality and label material durability matter: poor adhesive backing leads to peeling, label loss, and incomplete visitor information. The 1219 sheets are formulated for moisture resistance and long-term adhesion in humid or salt-spray environments common to coastal residential buildings. If your installation is in a high-traffic vestibule or outdoor unprotected entrance, plan for label replacement every 12–24 months depending on foot traffic and weather exposure.
Ordering the 1219 requires only confirmation that your installed hardware is a Comelit Vandalcom entrance panel. No additional integration, software, or commissioning steps apply — this is a consumable supply item. Maintain a stock of at least one kit per multi-family building to avoid service delays when a tenant name tag is damaged or tenant turnover requires label updates. Comelit documentation (available in the datasheet link below) provides label layout guidance if you need to mark labels by hand using permanent marker before installation.
The 1219 carries a standard 2-year manufacturer warranty covering material defects in the adhesive or label stock. Damage caused by improper storage (excessive heat, moisture exposure) or incorrect application is not covered. Store spare kits in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to preserve adhesive integrity. Comelit Vandalcom entrance panels are widely deployed across North American multi-family housing and commercial office complexes; the 1219 is the approved consumable replenishment stock for these installations.

In our experience, the Comelit 1219 name tag sheets are a frequently overlooked line item during Vandalcom system commissioning — and an equally frequent emergency reorder after tenant turnover or weather damage. We've seen installations where worn or illegible name tags at the entrance panel directly correlate with support calls from residents unable to identify their unit button, delivery personnel unable to find the correct call button, and reduced tenant satisfaction. The 1219 solves a small but real operational problem: consumable label stock that matches the original panel form factor and adhesive specifications. Comelit doesn't sell these sheets in bulk through most distributors, so specifying them upfront during system design prevents future expedited shipping costs and service delays.
Technical Highlights:
- Adhesive Formulation: The sheets are engineered for Vandalcom panel material — typically polycarbonate or anodized aluminum. Standard office label adhesive will peel in 6–12 months in exterior or semi-protected vestibule conditions. The 1219 adhesive is rated for outdoor UV and moisture exposure, extending label life to 24+ months under normal weather.
- Label Quantity and Coverage: 10 nameplate sheets + 7 information module sheets covers approximately 70–100 individual label windows depending on nameplate design and labeling density. For a 40-unit building, one kit provides roughly one refresh cycle; larger multi-building campuses should stock 2–3 kits per year.
- No Compatibility Variants: Comelit Vandalcom panel geometry is standardized across product generations (late 1990s through current). The 1219 fits all Vandalcom flush-mount and surface-mount panel configurations. No need to verify SKU variants — one part number covers the entire Vandalcom install base.
- Handwriting and Print Compatibility: Labels accept permanent marker, ballpoint pen, or thermal printer output without adhesive degradation. Thermal-printed label batches (name + unit number pre-printed before installation) are common in large residential projects; peel-and-stick adhesion remains stable regardless of printing method.
Deployment Considerations:
- Adhesive backing is one-time-use — if a label is applied incorrectly or needs adjustment, the sheet is usually lost. Train installation crews to dry-fit all labels (without removing backing) before committing the adhesive. A mistake during a 100-unit building retrofit can create unexpected material waste.
- Store unused kits in climate-controlled space, never in hot vehicles or outdoor job-site conditions. Adhesive backing degrades rapidly above 85°F or in direct sunlight. We've received returns where entire kits were ruined by site storage in summer heat — this is a commissioning logistics issue, not a product defect.
- Label removal (when tenant changes name or unit mapping changes) requires careful peel-off to avoid leaving adhesive residue on the panel window. Use a plastic scraper or low-heat heat gun if residue sticks. Panel windows are typically delicate polycarbonate — aggressive scraping can scratch the nameplate area and degrade visibility.
- Plan for higher label consumption in high-turnover residential buildings (urban apartments, corporate housing). A building with 30% annual tenant turnover may require 2–3 kits annually vs. 1 kit every 2–3 years in stable single-family or commercial office contexts.
- Comelit Vandalcom panels support both single-language (English) and multi-language name tag layouts depending on building demographics. The 1219 is language-neutral — blank adhesive stock that you populate with tenant names in whatever language(s) apply. Verify building naming standards before large-batch printing.
The Comelit 1219 is essential consumable stock for any integrator or property management team operating Vandalcom entrance panels. Specify it during system commissioning, stock spares, and plan for periodic replacement cycles tied to tenant turnover and weather exposure. For multi-family housing and commercial access control, maintaining legible, professional tenant identification at the entrance point is a small but measurable contributor to resident satisfaction and visitor wayfinding.
