# Security Infrastructure for Property Developers

Security infrastructure planning for property developers in Kenya: CCTV conduit, network and cabling design, gatehouse, access control, electric fence, intercom and solar backup, built in before handover.

The cheapest time to secure a development is before the walls are plastered and the driveways paved. Retrofitting conduit, cabling and power later is slow, visible and expensive.

Qyvea works with developers at design stage as part of its [estate security solutions](https://qyvea.co.ke/estate-solutions#developers).

## What we plan with you

- CCTV conduit and camera positions
- Network and cabling design, including backbone to each block
- Gatehouse design and services
- Access-control infrastructure at gates, lobbies and lifts
- Electric-fence infrastructure and earthing
- Gate automation and barrier ducting
- Intercom to each unit
- Security lighting
- Solar and battery backup for security loads
- Control-room preparation

## Why at design stage

| Built in during construction | Added after handover |
| --- | --- |
| Ducting under driveways before paving | Cutting and re-laying paving |
| Conduit inside walls | Surface trunking on finished walls |
| Power and network points where cameras go | Long cable runs and extra power supplies |
| Gatehouse sized for equipment | Equipment squeezed into a guard booth |
| Backbone planned for future phases | New trenches for every phase |

**Long distances:** copper Ethernet runs are limited to about 100 m, so large estates usually need a fibre or wireless backbone between blocks. That's much easier to plan before construction.

## Handover to the residents' association

At completion, the developer hands a working, documented system to the HOA or management company: equipment schedule, as-built drawings, configuration, warranty records and training. That makes the handover smoother and protects the development's reputation.

**Part of Qyvea Estate Security Solutions**: Integrated security for estates, apartments and gated communities: designed, installed and maintained as one system.

FAQ

## Common Questions

When should a developer involve a security integrator?

Ideally at design stage, before services drawings are final, so conduit, ducting, power and network are built in.

Can the system be phased with the development?

Yes. The backbone is designed for the full site, and equipment is installed as each phase completes.

What documentation does the developer receive?

As-built drawings, equipment schedule, configuration, warranty records and a maintenance schedule, ready to hand to the residents' association.
