Walk every area
Confirm TV walls, desks, access points, cameras, doors, gates, ceiling devices, outdoor points and the central cabinet.
Coordinate services
Check power, door hardware, ceiling access, waterproof entries, air conditioning and provider routes with the other trades.
Inspect before closure
Photograph routes, test continuity, label both ends and record changes before plasterboard or ceilings hide the work.
Project checklist
- Provide spare conduits to strategic areas
- Keep access points ceiling-fed, not dependent on extenders
- Reserve cabinet power, ventilation and growth space
Practical takeaways
- Define the operating requirement before choosing products
- Document interfaces, failure behaviour and ownership
- Test the completed system and keep records for support
