Access Control = Opportunity for Electricians
Why You Should Be Installing Access Control Systems
Access control is booming, and electricians are perfectly positioned to win this work. If you're not offering it yet, you're leaving high-margin jobs on the table.
Let's break down the top 5 common concerns we hear - and why now is the time to get on board.
1. "I'm not trained in this."
You don't have to be.
Modern systems are usually simple to install, and we offer straightforward training and support. If you can run power and terminate wires, you're 90% there.
2. "Too much coordination with other trades."
You're the ideal contractor to lead.
You're already on-site and trusted by GCs and owners. Adding access control makes you a one-stop shop — and puts you in charge of more of the scope.
3. "Too much liability - it's a security system."
You're already doing code-compliant work.
Access control adds a layer. With the right commissioning steps and documentation (which we'll provide), you're covered.
4. "I don't do networking or software."
You don't need to.
We'll help show you the basics and support you during the process. Many systems today are plug-and-play or cloud-based, making installs faster and easier.
5. "What about codes and compliance?"
We've got cheat sheets and diagrams.
You already follow electrical and fire codes. We'll teach you how to follow today's building and safety requirements, along with other access control must-haves, with added support from our locking expert.
