Office tenants, head offices and professional firms · Quebec and Ontario
Security, network and communication systems for offices and corporate headquarters
An office needs a network that works on the first morning, doors that open for the right people and meeting rooms anyone can start. Vega Security builds all of it for a fit-out, a move or a floor that has outgrown what it has.
A move-in date that does not move
The lease is signed, the movers are booked, and the low-voltage work is the last thing anyone thought about. Cabling has to go in before the ceilings close, the carrier's service has to reach the suite, and the phones, the doors and the meeting rooms all have to work on the same Monday.
This page is written for the IT manager, the office manager or the facilities lead of a company that occupies its space: a head office, a floor in a tower, a legal, accounting, engineering or financial firm, or a technology company with a server room of its own.
- The landlord's systems end at your doorThe base building controls the lobby and the elevators. Your suite, your server room and your records are yours to protect.
- Calls that drop between two roomsWi-Fi that was added one access point at a time, without a survey, fails when people walk and talk.
- A meeting room nobody dares to startThree remotes, a cable that fits one laptop and a camera that points at the wall.
- One flat network for everythingComputers, printers, guests and cameras share a network, and a client's security questionnaire asks how they are separated.
- A rack that grew without a planNo labels, no spare ports, and nobody willing to unplug a cable to find out where it goes.
What an office floor needs, and why
A tenant rarely needs all of these at once. Order the one that is failing, or have the whole floor designed together for a move.
- Structured cabling and LANOutlets at the desks, the ceilings and the doors, a rack with room to grow and switches with PoE for the phones and the access points. Every link is tested and labelled before move-in day.
- Enterprise Wi-FiDesigned from a survey for the walls and the number of people you really have, so that a call holds from the desk to the boardroom, with a separate network for visitors.
- Access controlCards, fobs or phones at the suite entrance, the server room and the file room, with rules by person and by schedule and a history of every door.
- Electronic locks and door hardwareAn electric strike or an electrified lock on the suite entrance, released from the reception desk for visitors, and battery-powered locks on the file room and the private offices, where cable is not worth pulling.
- Network security (IDS/IPS)A firewall sized for your connection, intrusion detection and prevention, separate zones for business systems, guests and cameras, and secure access for people working from home.
- VoIP and business telephonyExtensions that follow people to a laptop or a mobile, numbers transferred with the move, and call routing that says where a call rings after hours.
- Commercial audio and videoMeeting rooms with a display, a camera, microphones and speakers that start a video call at one touch, and a panel anyone can use without training.
- Video surveillanceCameras at the reception, the suite entrances and the server room door, tied to the door events.
- Intrusion alarmThe suite armed by the last card out, with separate areas so that one part stays protected while another is open.
- Water Leak Detection SystemA sensor and a shut-off valve for a server room, an electrical room or an archive that sits under plumbing.
- Fibre optic installation and cablingThe carrier's service extended from the building entrance to your suite, and a backbone between your floors.
- Project managementOne person who answers for every low-voltage scope of an office move on a fixed date, when your IT team has no time to follow a construction site.
From the signed lease to the first Monday
A fit-out leaves little room for error: the work is sequenced with your designer, your general contractor and the building.
- Reading the plans with your designer
Outlet positions, the rack location, door preparation and access point positions are settled on the furniture plan, while they still cost nothing to move.
- Cabling before the ceilings close
Cable is pulled, supported and labelled in step with the contractor, in line with the building's rules for after-hours work, risers and freight elevators.
- Equipment, configuration and tests
The rack is built, the network is segmented, the doors are programmed and each meeting room is tried with a real call before anyone moves in.
- Move-in and the first week
Numbers are transferred, the phones ring, the cards open the doors, and we stay within reach while people settle in and the small adjustments come up.

Questions from office and IT managers
We already have an IT provider. Where do you fit?
Beside them. We build the physical layer and the building systems: cabling, racks, Wi-Fi, doors, cameras, meeting rooms. Your IT provider keeps the servers, the computers and the accounts, and we hand them the documentation they need.
How early should we call you before a move?
As soon as the furniture plan exists. Cabling and door preparation go in before the ceilings and the frames are finished, and a carrier's service takes time to reach a suite.
Can the suite's access cards work with the building's system?
Often, yes. It depends on the base building's platform and on what the landlord allows. We check this with the property manager before choosing the readers.
Can you work in an office that stays open?
Yes. Noisy work and anything that interrupts the network is done in the evening or at the weekend, and the floor is left clean for the morning.
Will our numbers follow us to the new address?
In most cases, yes. We arrange the transfer with your provider and schedule it so that calls reach the new office on the day you open there.
