Structured Wiring

Structured wiring is the backbone of any modern home. This process of 'future-proofing' is the foundation for delivering a variety of signals throughout the structure. With structured wiring, all television, phone, security and data cables terminate at one central location. And using only high performance wire, problems with noise and interference are eliminated (i.e., poor television picture due to neighbors security system).

By having all cables terminate at a central location, future modifications are made easier. Structured wiring when installed by a qualified installer, allows the homeowner to send signals that used to be confined to one room throughout the entire house. With structured wiring, a VCR or DVD player can be shared by every television. Similarly, a CD jukebox could be controlled and accessed everywhere. It also allows for high-speed computer networks, sharing printers, files, scanners, etc. And don't forget a multi-line phone system that has extensions, intercoms, paging and door phones. It can even open electric gates and doors. A properly wired home is essential for today's lifestyle, and adds value and enjoyment for years to come.

The installation of a structured wiring system is not as simple as just pulling the proper wires. To get the full benefit from the wiring there are strict guidelines that need to be followed. If these are not adhered to, the benefits of better wiring are lost and the customer gets less return on their investment.

The cost of installing a structured wiring system depends on the size of the home being built. Average cost varies on floor space and includes full activation of the system upon completion and service contracts are available. When looking at costs, you need to consider the costs of different contractors installing individual systems, phone, cable, computer, audio and compare it to one contractor for all things having to do with wires.
