CHOOSING THE
RIGHT INSTALLER
● All installers being asked to provide
a proposal for the technology installation should be both appropriately
licensed in the state where the installation will be happening and insured.
● Know that not all vendors carry all
product lines. Ensure the vendors
you are asking for proposals from
understand the product lines or at
least the level of product you are
interested in and are able to supply
and install those brands.
● Ensure the vendors you are asking
for proposals from are certified by
the manufacturer of the product line
they are proposing for your installation. Almost all product manufacturer websites have a section
for finding authorized or certified
installers in your area.
● Ensure the vendors you are soliciting proposals from understand
the residential setting and the nuances that go along with it and have
documented record of completed
projects similar in size and scope.
● Obtain references on the vendor for
not only their installation work but
also their ongoing service and support, which you will rely on once your
equipment has been installed. Not all
vendors perform at the same level in
both the installation and support areas.
● Make sure you know the vendors
you are soliciting proposals from and
the nature of their business. These
technologies are becoming more advanced and sophisticated every day
and require an installer who is committed to keeping up with changes,
trends, and advancements. There
are inherent differences between a
security hardware integrator who is
engaged in this type of work on a
full-time basis and a company that
installs this technology as a " sideline " or on a limited basis.
