Securing a 270,000 square foot warehouse and plant in Milton

A manufacturer took over a warehouse and production facility the size of 40 basketball courts with no cabling, no network and no security, and needed all of it live within a month. We split the building into five zones, each with its own camera plan: compact 8 MP domes in the offices, dual-lens cameras at the entrances and loading docks so one mount covers two directions, LightHunter domes on the production floor for dust and low light, multi-sensor cameras down the warehouse aisles to kill the blind spots between racking, and ColorHunter turrets on the perimeter for full colour at night. Under it all we ran the structured cabling, built the rack and the server room and put every device on its own network. Eighteen months later we went back at minus 25 to check every camera, door and cable, and wrote that up too.

Client: KIOTI Canada, Milton
Scope: 113 Uniview cameras, ICT Protege access control, BAS-IP intercoms, alarms
Infrastructure: Structured cabling, switching and a server room built from an empty shell
Timeline: 30 days from first cable to a live system

How We Built a Professional Network with Starlink Gen 3, video — Internet for a church that no provider would connect

Starlink and network

Internet for a church that no provider would connect

The administrator had called every provider and got the same answer. We checked the sky with the Starlink app, mounted the dish on the roof with every penetration sealed, aligned it by hand and put the Starlink router into bypass mode so the building's network is ours to manage. Behind it we built a proper UniFi network: a Dream Router, an 8-port PoE switch and access points on the walls with a speed test at each one. Internet was never the goal; it was the foundation. The church can now add cameras, door access and an alarm on the same network without touching the connection again.

Client: A church in the Greater Toronto Area
Problem: No fibre, no cable, no ISP willing to run a line
Scope: Starlink Standard Kit on the roof, UniFi Dream Router, PoE switch and access points
Outcome: A wired network ready for cameras, access control and alarms

18 months later

Tested by winter, proven by time: back at the Milton plant

A system is only as good as it is a year and a half later, after two winters, a summer of dust and thousands of door events. We went back to the Milton facility in the coldest week of the year and walked every zone: the perimeter turrets through snow and glare, the dock cameras through the bright door openings, the production-floor domes through dust, the readers and intercoms at every door. The write-up covers what held up, what we would specify differently today, and why the cabling and rack work done at the start is the reason there was nothing to fix.

Site: KIOTI Canada, Milton
Conditions: Minus 25 on the day of the visit
Checked: Every camera view, door, intercom and cable run
Result: Everything still running as handed over

UniFi Access control for a Toronto studio

A new UniFi Access system for a creative studio downtown: card readers on the door frames, a hub in the rack, and the whole thing managed from the same console as the studio's network and cameras. Clean surface work on a space where appearance matters as much as security.

Network infrastructure build: racks, backboards and bend radius

What stays behind the scenes of every reliable system is the cabling. On this commercial build the Cat6 bundles are routed and tied on a plywood backboard, patch panels are populated in order and every bend respects the cable's radius so the certification passes first time.

Comprehensive testing of a structured cabling system of 157 lines. Every drop was certified on a Fluke DSX Versiv 2 analyzer, the remote unit showing a pass at each patch panel port, and the report handed over with the as-built drawing. This is the difference between cable that is pulled and cable that is guaranteed.

Starlink Performance plus UniFi for a countryside home

A remote home with no usable internet. We deployed Starlink Performance for the link, marked and fastened the mount on the roof, and built a UniFi network inside so the whole house and the outbuildings get wired-grade Wi-Fi rather than one router in a corner.

Start your project What clients say

Questions about our work

Where the photos come from, whether you can see a site, and the size of job we take on.

Are these photos and videos really from your own jobs?

Yes, every one. The photos come from our crews' Instagram posts and the case study shoots; the videos are on our YouTube channel. Nothing on this page is stock.

Can I visit a site you have installed?

For larger commercial projects we can often arrange a reference call with the client, and sometimes a walk-through. Ask when you request a quote and tell us what kind of building you are planning.

Do you take on jobs this small, or this large?

Both. The log runs from a single doorbell at a family home to a 200-camera plant, and the same crew does all of it with the same planning and the same 3-year warranty.

Where do you work?

Toronto and the whole Greater Toronto Area, Hamilton, Barrie, Kitchener, Guelph and Muskoka, from our office in King City. The log shows jobs from Vaughan to Huntsville to Mono Cliffs.
