Low Voltage & Security Estimating
Structured cabling, access control, and surveillance quantities scoped separately from power and lighting.
What We Take Off
- Structured cabling drop counts
- Access control device counts
- CCTV camera and NVR quantities
- Fire alarm device counts
- Cable tray and pathway linear footage
Works from whatever plans you have
Traditional 2D CAD drawings and PDF plan sets, or 3D BIM models — low voltage & security quantities are taken off directly from your source files, cross-checked against the model where one exists, and delivered in the same itemized format either way.
Need the drawings themselves, not just a takeoff from them? See Drawing & Engineering Services.
Where low voltage & security estimates commonly go wrong
Device counts alone don't capture the labor — cable pathway, head-end equipment, and programming time are separate line items that get missed in a rough per-device rate.
