Global Low Voltage installs intercom and video intercom systems for homes, apartments, offices, gates, and commercial properties in Los Angeles, Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena, and nearby areas.

Design-Build & Project Coordination

Talk to a real technician

No phone trees. No high-pressure sales. Just clear answers from people who do this every day.

Global Low Voltage partners with architects, general contractors, and facility managers to design, engineer, and deploy enterprise-grade infrastructure. Operating throughout the Greater Los Angeles area, we specialize in bridging the gap between standard electrical (line voltage) and mission-critical network systems. From pre-wiring new corporate headquarters in Burbank to retrofitting access control in historic Pasadena buildings, we deliver structured, code-compliant systems that scale with your business.

Seamless Integration with MEPs and General Contractors

The most expensive mistakes in commercial construction happen when low voltage is treated as an afterthought. We engage during the architectural design phase, coordinating directly with Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) teams.

By designing pathways, server room (MDF/IDF) layouts, and conduit requirements before the drywall goes up, we eliminate change orders, ensure TIA/EIA compliance, and keep your Los Angeles construction project on schedule.

Why LA's Top Contractors & Facility Managers Partner With Us

Code Compliance & Life Safety

LAFD & Title 24 Compliant We engineer every system to meet strict Los Angeles Fire Department codes. From fail-safe magnetic locks to plenum-rated cabling, we keep your building safe and ensure you pass inspections the first time.

Seamless Integration

Unified Systems, One Vendor Stop juggling multiple contractors. We design and integrate your network backbone, cloud surveillance, and access control to work flawlessly together on a single, scalable infrastructure.

Future-Proof Scalability

Engineered for Growth We don't just pull wires; we design for bandwidth. Our TIA/EIA-compliant structured cabling and MDF/IDF layouts guarantee that your infrastructure can support tomorrow’s technology demands.

Security Lifecycle Management

Proactive Uptime & Support: Security is not "set and forget." We provide ongoing monthly management, cloud software licensing, remote firmware patching, and health monitoring to ensure your systems have 99.9% uptime.

Frictionless Project Coordination

MEP & GC Alignment We integrate seamlessly into your commercial construction timeline. By coordinating early with mechanical and electrical teams, we eliminate change orders and keep your project perfectly on schedule.

True Enterprise Security

Cloud & Mobile Access We migrate legacy systems to edge-computing cloud architecture. Grant access globally from a smartphone, eliminate physical keys, and get real-time audit trails integrated directly with your video surveillance.

"Comprehensive Commercial Installation Standards"

Needs Assessment & System Design

Strategic Infrastructure Planning We don't just pull cables. Every project begins with a comprehensive site audit, MDF/IDF layout planning, and load calculation to ensure your low-voltage system supports current operations and future scaling.

Pathway Engineering & Rough-In

Code-Compliant Pathways We handle the installation of all necessary low-voltage infrastructure, including J-hooks, cable trays, conduit coordination, and fire-stopping, ensuring strict adherence to NEC and LAFD regulations.

Structured Cabling & Termination

TIA/EIA Certified Deployments Installation of Cat6, Cat6a, and Fiber Optic backbones. All terminations are meticulously mapped, color-coded, and organized within your server racks for optimal heat dissipation and easy maintenance.

End-Point Device Integration

Unified Hardware Setup Seamless physical installation and network integration of all end-point devices, including IP surveillance cameras, OSDP card readers, wireless access points, and commercial AV displays.

Testing, Certification & Commissioning

Flawless Signal Integrity Before hand-off, every cable drop is Fluke-tested and certified for bandwidth and signal loss. We thoroughly commission all hardware and software platforms to guarantee 100% operational readiness.

Post-Install Lifecycle Management

Ongoing System Health Our commitment doesn’t end at deployment. We provide comprehensive remote support, firmware patching, cloud license management, and proactive health monitoring to maximize your infrastructure uptime.

The Enterprise Deployment Process

Needs Analysis & MEP Coordination

We don't just quote parts; we review architectural plans. We engage early with General Contractors and MEPs (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) to align our low-voltage scope with your master construction schedule.

Site Survey & Pathway Engineering

A senior network engineer walks the property to map out conduit requirements, identify optimal MDF/IDF server room locations, and assess structural challenges to ensure NEC and LAFD code compliance.

System Design & Procurement

We deliver a comprehensive Bill of Materials (BOM) and system architecture plan. Every design is engineered to TIA/EIA standards, ensuring you have the bandwidth and security capabilities required for future scaling.

Structured Deployment

Our certified technicians execute the installation. From pulling plenum-rated cable to mounting edge-devices and terminating patch panels, we maintain strict quality control and clean, organized server racks.

Commissioning & Lifecycle Management

Every drop is Fluke-tested and certified. We hand over complete "as-built" documentation and transition you into our ongoing lifecycle management program for cloud licensing, remote support, and proactive system maintenance.

Frequently asked questions

What's the right height to mount a TV?

The center of the screen should sit at eye level when you’re seated — typically 42 to 48 inches off the floor for a sofa, higher for a bar or kitchen counter. Mounting too high (a very common mistake) causes neck strain and washes out the picture. We measure your seating, sightlines, and viewing distance before drilling a hole.

No — a great theater experience can live in a multi-purpose family room. A dedicated room lets you control light, acoustics, and seating for the best possible result (and Atmos overhead channels), but most clients are thrilled with a properly designed 5.1 or 7.1 system in their living room with a quality 4K TV and a calibrated soundbar or in-wall setup.

Yes. We run all power and HDMI inside the wall using in-wall rated cables and recessed power kits — code-compliant, clean, and invisible. For brick, tile, or concrete walls where in-wall isn’t possible, we use low-profile raceways color-matched to the surface.

Yes. Modern systems run on apps for iOS and Android — Sonos, Control4, URC, Roon — and many include Alexa and Google voice control. We also program physical universal remotes for clients who’d rather not pick up a phone every time. Either way, one button starts a ‘Watch Movie’ or ‘Listen to Music’ scene.

Today’s outdoor speakers — properly placed and powered — sound excellent. The keys are using true weatherproof speakers (not indoor speakers in an enclosure), running them off a dedicated outdoor-rated amplifier, and placing them at the right distance and angle. We design for even coverage across patios, pools, and yards without blasting your neighbors.

Let's design a low voltage system that just works.
