LED Lighting upgrade

Here at Alford Electrical Services Ltd, we pride ourselves on bringing the best possible outcome for energy efficiency.

This job was undertaken in a gloomy hallway which felt tired and dark.

We carefully removed each individual wall light fitting disassembled all the old fluorescent lighting equipment, installed new ceramic lamp holders and used new state of the art LED lamps with high luminance output.

The building now due to a very carefully and well-planned job does not require any decor work or any major drilling or installation work to achieve the same outcome.

Access Control Pin code installation

This is a surface mount vandal resistant access pin code device installed in conjunction with a fob access system to give varied but controlled access to a powered access automatic door.

This system has the option of 1 – 20 pin codes to be programmed in.

This has now allowed the venerable residents in the lower ground floor area of this Housing 21 court get the care they need from district nurses visiting the building.

With the PAC Fob system that was already installed by us the building now has full control of who is gaining access whilst also making it very simple for people visiting the building.

Home Office installation

A nice and neat home office installation carried out to keep the aesthetic of the property as homely as possible.

We were able to split and extend the ring main from a local socket point this allowed the installation of all the extra sockets to be compliant to BS7671 wiring regulations.

We also installed some further BT telephone extensions to allow the router and PC to be used with out extra cables running through the property.

We used centaur DADO trunking which has a nice aesthetic feel which helps keep the property to still feel like a house and not an office.

CCTV call out and onsite repair works

This is a before and after shot of a call out to a constantly failing CCTV system installed by others for Housing21 in Cornwall.

Upon first inspection it was apparent no regard to tidiness had been considered, the cables had been thrown in and the cat5e cables had been terminated and connected straight into the DVR.

Our proposal and permanent fix were to install suitable outlets for the cables and use factory made cat5e patch cables and replace the DVR to a more modern HD Hikvision recorder.

Housing 21 Door Entry upgrades

We carried out five identical door entry upgrades in the Mendip Somerset area for housing management company Housing21.

The original warden call system was to be decommissioned but the residents of the blocks still required a means of letting in visitors.

This required the old very large door panel to be made good, so we opted for some lovely 3mm aluminium plate cut to size.

We very competitively supplied and installed these systems in a fast and efficient manor

Emergency lighting consumer unit upgrade

This is a before and after from an emergency lighting upgrade we carried out in Plymouth for another management company in a block of 30 flats.

This consumer unit has been replaced due to the very poor cable connections and joints.

We have managed to pull back the 4 emergency light feeds from the main consumer unit and install them here with the fire alarm panel feed.

This now allows one precise location for all lifesaving equipment to be isolated and maintained safely.

Door Entry Upgrade

A very quick and neat upgrade of a very old outdated door entry system in Totnes, Devon.

This was a small block consisting of only five flats, but it is a listed building meaning a lot of limitations on the installation.

We retrofitted the original panel meaning the aesthetic from the outside hadn’t changed.

Another happy management company.
