Commercial security systems, built from the conduit up.

Access control, cameras, alarms, intercoms and gates, and the conduit, cable and fibre they run on. One crew installs all of it, from the site walk to the handover.

Contractor or integrator with a security scope? Work with us as your subcontractor

Open enclosure with a door controller, power supplies, output boards and two batteries, status lights on.

One crew for the whole run.

The security part of a job is usually split between an electrician, a cabling contractor and a security integrator. We do all three parts, so one crew answers for it from the first conduit to the last label.

With us

MNB SecurityStages 1 to 6

  1. Pathway and conduit

    EMT, rigid and threaded conduit, bent and threaded on site, indoors and out. That includes large trunk runs, which most low-voltage shops leave to another trade.

  2. Cable and fibre

    Cat6 and Cat6A pulled, terminated and tested on a certifier. Fibre is fusion spliced and OTDR tested where a run is too long for copper.

  3. Devices and door hardware

    Readers, cameras, detectors and intercom stations mounted and aimed. Electric strikes, maglocks and exit devices fitted to the door as it was built.

  4. Panels and head-end

    Controllers, power supplies and batteries mounted in the enclosure, wired by function and labelled, so the next technician can read the panel.

  5. Programming and testing

    Credentials, schedules, camera views and alarm zones set up with you. Every device is tested before we call the job finished.

    • Readers, locks and door contacts, door by door
    • Cameras aimed and focused to the coverage plan, each on a fixed address
    • Alarm zones, users and arming schedules
    • Every permanent cable link, on a calibrated certifier
  6. Labels, as-builts and handover

    You get the labels, the drawings, the cable test files and the port records, and the people who will use the system are shown how.

Nothing here is stock. These are panels, conduit, cameras, readers and gates as we left them.

Who we work for.

Building owners and property managers

You have doors to control, cameras to add, or a system someone left unfinished. Mark walks the site before we quote, so the price comes from someone who has seen the building, and one crew does the work.

Contractors and integrators

You have a security scope you can’t self-perform. We build it to your drawings, labour-only or with materials, and close it out with labels, as-builts and certified cable tests.

What you get when we leave.

Every job ends with the records a property team needs to run the system and have it serviced.

  • Labels

    Every device, cable and port is labelled, so the next technician can find it.

  • Cable test files

    Every permanent link is tested on a calibrated certifier, and the report files are yours.

  • As-built drawings

    Drawings marked up with where each device and pathway actually went.

  • Switch and port records

    Which device is on which port, for whoever looks after the network.

Owner-operated since 2020.

Mark, the owner, walks each site, manages the job and does the field work, with technicians and labourers brought in as each job needs.

We work in the GTA, and southern Ontario when the job warrants it.
