At Builders Electric, our experienced low voltage electricians keep up with the latest trends in low voltage tech and provide custom design, build and installation services. Businesses depend on a wide variety of low voltage systems to keep their employees comfortable, safe and connected with the outside world. From voice and data networks to security and lighting control systems, our team is ready to meet the needs of your business. Serving the Willamette valley and all of Oregon, we offer low voltage services for new construction projects and retrofits.

While low voltage systems reduce energy costs, they are also safer because the risk of electrical shock caused by shorted or faulty circuits is greatly reduced. Because electrical companies do not provide low voltage services, all low voltage systems are supplied by transformers that step normal 110/220 V AC current down to somewhere between 12V DC and 30 V DC, depending upon the system. While there are benefits to low voltage systems, all wiring and installations of low voltage devices must still meet your state’s low voltage electrical code.

Our Low Voltage Services include but are not limited to:

Network Cabling/ Data and Fiberoptic

Builders Electric offers wiring and cabling services for network data systems including fiberoptic.

Access Control

Access control can provide additional security to your physical premises including buildings and parking lots as well as 24/7 access for emergency support. These systems are typically installed with strategically located call stations that have the ability to record the history and time duration of every entry and exit event. Builders Electric specializes in installing a variety of access control system products such as card access points, telephone access points, elevator controls and keypads.

Security Systems

With clients throughout the Willamette Valley, Builders Electric has installed both industrial and commercial fire and security systems.
