Retire the corkboard. Run the building from one screen.
IT Pro Installations designs, supplies and flush-mounts digital screens in the lobbies, hallways, elevator landings and amenity rooms of condominiums and commercial buildings across Ontario. Notices stay current, rules get read, and the wall residents walk past every day can carry advertising your corporation sells.
Drag to compare the same lobby wall
Four jobs, one screen.
Management posts from a browser. Content rotates on a schedule, expires on its own, and never needs a thumbtack.
Always current
Water shut-offs, inspections, garage cleaning, move-in bookings. Set an end time and the notice takes itself down.
Read, not ignored
Declaration and rules items on rotation, worded the way your board approved them. Fewer repeat issues, and a clearer record that residents were told.
A revenue line
Residents, local businesses and instructors buy slots. The corporation sets the rate, approves every ad and keeps the money.
A building with a pulse
Events, AGM dates, social committee news, amenity hours. The things that make a building feel looked after.
Pick a spot in the building.
Every placement is sized to its wall and its audience. Tap a zone to see what we'd specify there and why it works.
Both trades, one contract.
Most screen projects stall between the electrician and the IT company. We are both, so the power, the network and the screen are one team's responsibility from survey to switch-on.
ESA-licensed master electrician
Power, circuits and permits handled by a licensed electrical contractor, with ESA notification and sign-off on every job.
Engineers on the IT side
Displays, media players, network and signage software configured and tested by engineers, not handed off to a reseller.
One point of contact
One proposal, one schedule, one invoice. Drywall, painting and any other trades are coordinated by us.
Installed once. Looked after every month.
Screens in a common area are only useful if they're on, current and secure. Our managed service keeps them that way, and the advertising they carry can offset what the building spends.
Illustrative only. Actual results depend on your rate card, how many slots sell and the advertising policy your board adopts. Figures are gross, before HST. We model your building properly during the site survey.
Survey to switch-on.
Built around how condominium boards actually approve work, so nobody is surprised at the next meeting.
Site survey
We walk the common areas with management: sightlines, wall construction, power and network access, traffic.
Written proposal
Screen specs, locations and a fixed, itemized price, written so it can go straight into the board package.
Board approval
We provide the cost and scope details your manager needs for the Condominium Act process, including any notice to owners.
Installation
Walls opened, power and data run, screens recessed flush, finishes restored. Electrical by our ESA-licensed master electrician.
Managed service
Staff trained, first content loaded, ad policy template provided. Then we monitor, update and support the system month to month.
Paperwork first, drywall second.
Boards and managers carry the risk when a contractor opens a common-area wall. Here's what you can expect from us.
ESA-documented
Electrical by a licensed electrical contractor, with ESA notification and sign-off.
Itemized quotes
Every screen, run and finish priced line by line, ready for the board package.
Spaces respected
Dust control, protected floors, finishes matched and fire separations properly fire-stopped.
What directors ask us.
Straight answers. Your corporation's lawyer and manager have the final word on your building.
Do owners have to vote on this?
It depends on the cost. Under section 97 of Ontario's Condominium Act, 1998, larger changes to the common elements require notice to owners, and a change that counts as "substantial" (generally more than 10% of the annual budgeted common expenses) requires owner approval. Your manager and condo lawyer confirm which tier applies to your building. We supply the scope and cost details the notice needs.
Who does the electrical work?
Our partner, a master electrician working under an Electrical Contractor Licence. In Ontario, electrical work done for hire must be performed by a licensed electrical contractor, who files a notification with the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA). You receive the ESA documentation when the work is complete.
What happens to the wall?
Screens are recessed so they sit flush rather than bolted on. We open the wall, run concealed power and data, mount the screen, then patch, finish and paint to match. Where a wall is a fire separation, penetrations are fire-stopped so the separation keeps its rating.
Which screens and software do you use?
It depends on the building. We specify commercial-grade displays sized to each location and set you up on signage software without per-screen licence fees wherever the building's needs allow. You aren't locked into one manufacturer.
What does the monthly service cover?
Remote monitoring so we know when a screen goes offline, software and security updates, help setting up content and ad slots, and hardware support. One plan, one point of contact.
Who controls what goes on the screens, and who keeps the ad revenue?
The corporation. Management posts and approves everything, and advertising on your common elements is revenue for the corporation. We provide an advertising policy template the board can adopt. How the revenue is accounted for is a matter for the board and your auditor.
Does this work for commercial buildings too?
Yes. Tenant directories, building announcements, wayfinding and sponsor content work the same way in office, retail and mixed-use buildings.
