Installation
Installation: where quotes differ most
Installation labor typically runs $800 to $1,500 per door, covering door hardware, dedicated cabling to the controller, panel power with battery backup, programming and testing. Doors that need mag locks, ADA operators or wireless locks can add $1,000 to $2,000 per opening. Reusing working door hardware and cabling is the biggest way to save. See the access control cost guide.

Five-year cost
Brivo vs an on-premises system over five years
Up front, Brivo and a traditional on-premises system cost about the same. Over five years, Brivo usually wins for multi-site and growing organizations once you count servers, software maintenance, IT time and the eventual server replacement. Since Brivo merged with Eagle Eye Networks, the Brivo Security Suite also pairs access control with cloud video. See access control as a service and Brivo.
