Choosing a skilled access control installer is crucial for business security. The installer you choose impacts your access control systems' reliability and your security, so it's important to understand your business needs before hiring an access control company.
Why is it Important to Choose a Qualified Installer?
A qualified access control installer brings several benefits including:
- Expertise in Installation: Trained and certified by manufacturers, these professionals ensure that installations meet low-voltage electrical codes.
- Compliance with Safety Regulations: Following OSHA regulations is non-negotiable. A professional installer guarantees that all safety standards are met on your property.
- Licensing and Insurance: Choosing a licensed, bonded, and insured installer protects you legally and financially. PLT, or Power Limited Technician, is a specialized electrical license for low-voltage systems. Assured Security is PLT licensed in the state of Minnesota.
- Quality and Workmanship: Professional installers deliver quality workmanship, ensuring that the final result is not only functional but also compliant with the National Electronic Code. This means no exposed wiring and a system that is easily serviceable in the future, reducing troubleshooting time and potential problems.

Pre-Installation Process
Prior to installation, it's critical to establish a clear plan.
