Another successful Kisi access control upgrade completed by IDR Technology Solutions.

This project involved migrating the customer from a legacy access control platform to the Kisi cloud-based access control platform, providing a more modern, secure, and user-friendly solution for managing access throughout the facility.

Scope of work included:

✔ Kisi cloud-based access control deployment

✔ Main entrance intercom integration

✔ Electric strike and door hardware integration

✔ Structured cabling and infrastructure upgrades

✔ Controller and power supply installation

✔ System testing, commissioning, and user training

✔ Detailed labeling and documentation

One of the biggest advantages of cloud-based access control is the ability to manage users, credentials, permissions, and activity from virtually anywhere, while maintaining a simple and intuitive experience for administrators and end users alike.

As with all IDR projects, special attention was given to system documentation, cable labeling, and long-term maintainability to ensure the system remains easy to support and expand in the future.

Thank you to everyone involved in making this project a success.

Can your employees hear conversations from nearby offices, conference rooms, or workstations?

In many modern office environments, excessive noise and lack of speech privacy have become major workplace challenges. While open office layouts encourage collaboration, they can also create distractions that impact productivity, concentration, and confidentiality.

This is where sound masking can make a significant difference.

Sound masking systems, such as those offered by Lencore Acoustics LLC., introduce a comfortable and unobtrusive background sound designed to reduce the intelligibility of speech. The result is a more productive and comfortable environment for employees, visitors, and customers.

Some of the key benefits of sound masking include:
✔ Improved speech privacy for confidential conversations
✔ Reduced workplace distractions and interruptions
✔ Increased employee focus and productivity
✔ Enhanced comfort in open office environments
✔ Better support for HR, executive, healthcare, and client-facing spaces
✔ Improved acoustics without costly construction or renovations
✔ Integrated paging and background music capabilities with select Lencore platforms
✔ A centralized solution that can reduce the need for separate paging, music, and sound masking systems

As organizations continue to rethink workplace design, sound masking has become an increasingly important component of creating productive and professional environments.

We would also like to recognize our partners at Lencore. Their team has been an outstanding resource to IDR Technology Solutions and our customers, providing innovative solutions, technical expertise, and exceptional support throughout the years.

If you've ever walked through an office and found yourself distracted by conversations happening several desks away, you've already experienced the problem that sound masking is designed to solve.

Had a great time attending Bongiorno & Associates, Inc. annual pig roast event last night. Thank you to Nick Pollando and Eugene Kelly for the invitation.

The food was outstanding, the company was even better, and it was a great opportunity to connect with industry partners while learning about some exciting new technologies.

One product that really caught my attention was Optoma Technology's latest interactive display solution. The platform offers seamless integration with technologies such as AirPlay, Bonjour, and Google Classroom, making it an excellent fit for both boardrooms and educational environments. The display was intuitive, feature-rich, and competitively priced. I look forward to learning more about the solution from Maria Repole and Sal Amato and exploring opportunities to bring it to our customers.

Another standout was the live demonstration from UCL Swift Americas. Their fiber termination and fusion splicing solutions were incredibly impressive, and Jamie Brookover let me know they are currently offering a promotion that includes a FREE fusion splicer with the purchase of 2,000 connectors, or a fusion splicer at 50% off with the purchase of 1,000 connectors. For organizations performing fiber optic installations on a regular basis, this is definitely worth exploring.

A big thank you to the entire Bongiorno & Associates team for hosting a fantastic event and bringing together so many great manufacturers, partners, and industry professionals.

Another successful technology deployment completed in New York City.

This project included the design, installation, and integration of multiple technology systems to support security, connectivity, collaboration, and day-to-day operations throughout the office.

Scope of work included:

• Kisi cloud-based access control system with electric strike installation
• Main entrance video intercom integration
• Meraki camera integration for visitor management and video verification
• Structured cabling for wireless access points, cameras, displays, and office technology
• Painting conduit white for wireless access points and cameras.
• Conference room technology deployment including Logitech video conferencing equipment
• New network rack installation, patch panel termination, cable management, and system documentation

Projects like this highlight the value of having a technology partner that can manage multiple disciplines under a single scope. From access control and surveillance to networking, structured cabling, and collaboration systems, our goal is to deliver clean installations that are easy to manage, support, and scale as organizations grow.

A well-designed technology infrastructure should not only work on day one—it should remain organized, documented, and supportable for years to come.

Another successful @ deployment completed in Los Angeles, CA.

This project involved upgrading three openings to the Kisi cloud-based access control platform, including secure door access, video intercom integration, Meraki surveillance integration, system testing, and end-user onboarding.

As organizations continue to standardize security systems across multiple offices and regions, consistent ex*****on becomes just as important as the technology itself. Whether a project is located in New York, New Jersey, Florida, Texas, California, or anywhere in between, our goal remains the same: deliver a seamless experience from consultation and design recommendations through implementation and support.

In addition to the deployment itself, our team worked with the customer to help establish consistent infrastructure standards that can be replicated across future locations. These standards included inside-panel labeling identifying all inputs, relays, and field device connections, dedicated red data jacks for security devices, red 28AWG patch cords for all access control equipment, and Panduit wrap-around labels installed on both ends of every patch cord to improve identification, panel drawings, documentation, troubleshooting, and long-term supportability.

For multi-site organizations, standardization is often just as valuable as the hardware. Consistent labeling, cabling, documentation, and installation practices help reduce service costs, simplify onboarding, and create a better experience for both local teams and remote administrators.

We're proud of another clean installation and grateful for the opportunity to support our clients as they continue to grow and standardize their security infrastructure nationwide.

A closer look at one of the collaboration environments we recently completed as part of a larger multi-room Yealink Zoom Rooms deployment in New York City.

This flex room was designed to support larger meetings, hybrid collaboration, presentations, and multi-purpose team use while maintaining a clean and user-friendly experience throughout the space.

The room includes:
• 85” display
• Yealink Zoom Rooms system
• Multiple integrated camera solutions
• In-ceiling microphones and speakers
• Wall-mounted room control interface
• Centralized AV infrastructure

During the design process, we consulted with the client and GC to improve both long-term usability and serviceability throughout the space. One example involved transitioning from fixed display mounting solutions to full-motion mounting systems that both maintained a clean ultra-flush appearance while also improving future service accessibility and reducing maintenance complexity over time.

We also recommended expanding the audio design from two ceiling speakers to four in order to provide more even audio distribution and improved speech intelligibility throughout the room.

Proud of the work our team completed on this deployment.

Recently completed a new 3-door access control deployment utilizing Kisi cloud-based access control technology for our client's Midtown Manhattan office.

During the installation, our team identified a manufacturer alignment issue on one of the newly installed door frames which prevented the electric strike from aligning properly. Rather than delaying the project, our technicians modified the opening, repaired the frame, and completed the installation cleanly on-site.

Real-world projects do not always go exactly according to plan, and one thing we take pride in at IDR Technology Solutions is our ability to troubleshoot and solve field issues that many integrators simply are not equipped to handle.

We’re proud to share that the client was extremely happy with the final result, and we are currently discussing a larger 20-door upgrade for their Connecticut headquarters as a result of the successful NYC deployment.

Proud of the team on this one.

One of the access control platforms we genuinely enjoy deploying is Kisi.

There are a lot of systems in the industry that can technically “do the job,” but what separates great platforms from frustrating ones is usability, scalability, and how intuitive the experience is for both administrators and end users.

One of the biggest reasons we like Kisi is how simple the platform is to manage. Organizing locations, user groups, credentials, and permissions is clean and straightforward, which makes day-to-day administration much easier for clients.

From an end-user perspective, features like:
• Mobile credentials
• Geofencing
• Proximity unlock
• Hand-wave unlock functionality

help create a modern and seamless access experience.

Users can simply install the Kisi app, walk up to the reader, wave their hand near the device, and unlock the door without needing to physically present a card or fob.

From an IT and operational standpoint, another major advantage is visibility. Because of Kisi’s IP-based architecture, administrators can monitor not only controllers, but also readers across the network.

We also place a strong emphasis on how systems behave in real-world environments — not just on feature lists. Operational details around monitoring, event handling, integrations, and system flexibility can make a major difference long-term.

Another major positive has been Kisi’s support team. We’ve consistently had responsive experiences during deployment, troubleshooting, and ongoing support.

IDR Technology Solutions has been deploying Kisi systems since 2021, and over the years we’ve completed enough successful installations that many of our clients now rely on us for larger multi-site and national rollouts.

A big part of that success comes from the fact that we genuinely enjoy working with the platform and understand how to properly deploy and support it in real-world environments.

Recently completed a multi-room Zoom collaboration deployment for a client in New York City consisting of six conference and collaboration spaces, including executive conference rooms and a large flex room environment.

The project includedYealink Zoom Rooms systems, integrated camera solutions, in-ceiling microphones and speakers, centralized AV infrastructure, and dedicated room control interfaces designed to create a consistent and user-friendly meeting experience across the office.

During the design process, we worked closely with the client and GC to improve long-term serviceability by recommending full-motion mounting solutions rather than fixed ultra-flush configurations. We also expanded the flex room audio design from two ceiling speakers to four to improve overall audio coverage and speech intelligibility throughout the space.

Proud of the work our team completed on this project.
