20+ Card Readers, 10+ Cameras: Security Installation Work Completed in Under Two Weeks
- Commercial access control and video surveillance installation
- 20+ card readers and 10+ cameras
- Cabling, door hardware and head-end wiring
Preparing for Equipment with a 6–8 Week Lead Time
On a commercial security installation involving more than 20 card readers and 10 cameras, the customer had selected a proprietary security system.
The work was divided between two contractors.
ASI Systems was responsible for pulling cable, installing door hardware and terminating wiring at the head end. A separate contractor would supply the security equipment and complete the system programming.
The equipment had a six-to-eight-week lead time.
For ASI, the job was straightforward: complete its portion of the installation and have the panel locations ready for the next contractor.
Ready Before the Equipment Arrived
ASI’s installation team completed its assigned work in less than two weeks.
The cabling was pulled, door hardware installed and head-end wiring prepared for the equipment installation.
When the equipment contractor checked in to ask whether ASI was ready for any of the panels, the answer was:
“Yes, we’re ready for all of them.”
The response from the other contractor was equally brief:
“Oh wow.”
Every Panel Location Ready in Less Than Two Weeks
ASI completed its installation scope in under two weeks, with every panel location prepared for the next phase.
The equipment and programming remained the responsibility of the other contractor, but ASI’s portion of the work was complete.
For general contractors and project managers coordinating multiple trades, that distinction matters. Security cabling, door hardware and head-end preparation are separate pieces of work, but they all have to come together for the system installation to proceed.
