Our Installation Work

These are photographs of our own installations — not stock images. If you want to judge whether we do this properly, look at the mounts, the cable routing and the sealed penetrations rather than at anything we write about ourselves.

We are deliberately careful about publishing client detail. A lot of what we install is at private residences, industrial sites and secured facilities, where the location of equipment and the layout of a network are things the customer would reasonably prefer stayed private. Photographs appear here only where no client, address, brand or site identifier is identifiable, and named case studies only with written consent.

Roof and ridge mounts on rural homes, positioned from an obstruction survey rather than for convenience.

  • Starlink dish mounted on the ridge of a shingled roof overlooking rolling farmland and a treeline
    Ridge-mounted dish on an acreage property. The position was chosen to clear the treeline to the north rather than for the shortest cable run.
  • Aerial view of a Starlink dish installed on an asphalt shingle roof, with mown lawn and dense bush beyond
    Residential installation on a rural property, with the cable run down the roof valley to a sealed entry point.
  • Starlink dish on a black pipe mount fixed to a shingled roof ridge, with pasture and forest behind
    Ridge mount fixed through to structure, not sheathing. Positioned clear of the path snow takes when it sheds off the roof.
  • Starlink dish angled toward open sky above a roof ridge, with green fields and bush in the distance
    A steeper dish angle helps snow shed rather than settle — worth doing wherever the sightlines allow it.
  • Starlink dish mounted on a roof ridge with a neighbouring property and rolling pasture visible beyond
    Completed acreage installation. Cable secured along the ridge line with UV-stable clips rather than left to sag.

Non-penetrating ballast mounts, conduit runs and sealed penetrations on commercial flat roofs.

  • Starlink dish on a galvanised tripod mount weighted with concrete blocks, on a gravel-ballasted commercial flat roof
    Non-penetrating ballast mount on a commercial flat roof. Nothing pierces the membrane, so the roof warranty is untouched.
  • Starlink dish on a ballasted tripod beside a conduit riser sealed with a rubber pipe boot on a gravel roof
    The cable drops into rigid conduit and through a properly flashed pipe boot — the detail that keeps water out of the building.
  • Starlink dish on a ballast frame with a galvanised conduit weatherhead curving into a sealed roof penetration
    A weatherhead turns the conduit downward so water runs off rather than into the run. Ballast sized for the exposure this roof actually sees.
  • Starlink dish on a tall pole mount weighted with concrete blocks on a standing-seam metal roof, with a directional Yagi antenna alongside and an industrial facility beyond
    Industrial site running Starlink alongside a directional cellular antenna, so the two links cover each other's failure modes. Ballast and rubber matting protect the metal roof.
  • Starlink dish on a galvanised pole with block ballast on a white metal roof, storm clouds overhead and process equipment in the background
    Pole-and-ballast mount raising the dish clear of the roofline. No fastener penetrates the metal panel.
  • Starlink dish on a ballasted tripod on a gravel commercial roof with a neighbouring warehouse in the background
    Rooftop installation on a distribution facility, with the conduit run kept short to limit exposure.

Telecom Tower Work

Microwave and sector antenna work at height on lattice towers, including alignment to specified azimuth and downtilt.

  • Lattice telecommunications tower photographed from the base, carrying a microwave drum antenna and sector panels against a blue sky
    Tower-mounted microwave and sector antennas. Work at height on structures like this is a different discipline from rooftop installation.
  • Top of a telecommunications tower with a large shrouded microwave dish and several sector antenna panels
    Microwave backhaul dish and sector antennas at the head of a lattice tower.
  • Antenna alignment tool strapped to a cellular sector antenna on a tower, with a lake and snow-capped mountains below
    Aligning a sector antenna to its specified azimuth and downtilt with a calibrated alignment tool. Aiming by eye is not aiming.

Structured Cabling

Communications rooms, racks, patch panels and cable management built to be traceable years later.

  • Communications room with an open-frame rack, bundled yellow Cat6 cabling dressed into patch panels, and fibre terminations below
    Communications room build. Cable bundled and dressed so airflow is not blocked and any run can be traced later.

POS, Retail & AV

Point-of-sale terminals, payment devices and display systems installed and commissioned in live venues.

  • Payment terminal on an articulated counter mount at a retail service desk
    Payment terminal mounted and commissioned at a service counter.
  • Two stainless-clad point-of-sale terminals on articulated arms above a bar counter, with a receipt printer below
    Point-of-sale terminals mounted on articulated arms so staff can position them, with cabling routed through the mount.
  • Point-of-sale screen and receipt printer on a bar counter in a restaurant dining room
    Front-of-house terminal commissioned and tested against the kitchen display system.
  • Wall-mounted display screen recessed into a backlit retail merchandising wall beneath a Lenses sign
    Display recessed and levelled into a backlit merchandising wall, with cabling concealed behind the fixture.
  • Retail store interior mid-fit-out with stepladders, backlit display walls and ceiling-mounted AV equipment
    Store fit-out in progress: display mounting, ceiling AV and cable pathways installed ahead of merchandising.

Typical Engagements

What each kind of project actually involves, and where to read the full detail.

Rural and acreage connectivity

A property with no viable wired option. The work is an obstruction survey against the full satellite arc, a mount specified for open exposure, a sealed cable entry, and then usually a second problem to solve: getting coverage from the house out to a shop or barn.

Starlink Installation in detail

Commercial network rebuilds

A business running on daisy-chained desk switches and an ISP router where adding one device breaks another. Survey, documented design, structured cabling, managed switching, VLAN segmentation and a firewall with an actual rule set — then a cutover scheduled outside operating hours.

Commercial Network Installation in detail

Remote and temporary site deployments

A construction site, camp or unmanned installation with no service and often generator power. Equipment is staged and configured before travel, mounted in temperature-rated enclosures, and built for remote management because a callout is a full day.

Remote Site Connectivity in detail

Coverage remediation

A building where a mesh kit and two extenders have not fixed the dead zone. A survey establishes what the construction is actually doing to the signal, then a wired access point layout replaces the stack of repeaters.

Wi-Fi Installation in detail

Server room and rack builds

Equipment accumulated on a shelf in an unventilated closet on a shared circuit. Rack, power distribution, UPS sized from measured load, thermal management, cabling and labelling — plus a backup with a restore that is actually tested.

IT Infrastructure Installation in detail

Custom software builds

A process running on a spreadsheet emailed between four people. Discovery first, an honest answer about whether existing software solves it more cheaply, then a scoped build delivered in increments you can use as they land.
