Jordan & Skala design security systems around what needs to be protected, who needs access, and how the building will actually be used. We coordinate access control, surveillance, and related infrastructure with the rest of the project.
Security systems need to support the people who use it, the teams who operate it, and the way the property functions every day.
Â
Our team considers who needs access, where vulnerabilities may exist, how the property will be monitored, and how security requirements may change as the building evolves.
Residents, staff, guests, service personnel, and vehicles may all need different levels of entry. We coordinate access control around how people actually move through the building so the system supports operations without creating unnecessary friction.
Cameras, monitoring platforms, alerts, and related infrastructure help teams understand what is happening across the property. We coordinate these systems with architecture, network requirements, and daily operations so visibility is planned rather than added later.
Security systems work alongside life-safety, emergency communication, door hardware, and other building systems. Early coordination helps reduce gaps and ensures critical requirements are considered together.
Security needs can change as tenants, technology, operations, or risk conditions evolve. We help plan infrastructure that can support future devices, credentials, and system updates without requiring unnecessary retrofit work.
Access control helps determine who can enter a building, where they can go, and when they can access specific areas. We design and coordinate access control infrastructure around the property’s security requirements, operational needs, and user experience.
Â
Systems may include card readers, electronic locks, credentials, door hardware coordination, and centralized access management.
Video surveillance provides visibility into the spaces and activities that matter most. We design camera systems around the property’s layout, security objectives, viewing requirements, and operational needs.
Â
Our designs consider camera locations, fields of view, equipment, network infrastructure, and coordination with architectural and electrical systems.
Some projects require security and technology solutions beyond standard access control and surveillance. Jordan & Skala helps coordinate specialized systems around the building’s operational, security, and technology requirements, considering infrastructure, equipment locations, connectivity, power, and integration with other building systems.
Detects unauthorized entry or activity in areas that require additional protection. Systems can include door and window contacts, motion detection, glass-break detection, and other intrusion monitoring technologies.
01
Security requirements are different for every project. We consider the building’s occupants, operations, access patterns, and physical layout to develop systems that support how the property actually works.
02
We help owners and design teams evaluate what is necessary, where it matters, and how different systems should work together, balancing security objectives with budget, usability, and long-term maintenance.
03
Our Low Voltage team understands that security looks different across multifamily, hospitality, healthcare, municipal, high-rise, industrial, and mixed-use environments. That experience helps us account for the specific people, processes, and risks associated with each property.
03
We coordinate equipment, pathways, power, network connections, door requirements, and other project elements so the design is clear, buildable, and easier to maintain.
