Integrated Security for Portland’s
Mixed-Use, Multi-Family & Commercial Builds
Portland’s development scene is dense and varied: Pearl District mixed-use towers, South Waterfront high-rises, OHSU facility expansions, Silicon Forest tech campuses in Hillsboro, and residential subdivisions pushing south through Wilsonville and Happy Valley. Each build type has its own pre-wire requirements and timeline pressure. We work alongside your team from framing through commissioning — not just at the finish line.
Built for Portland’s Builders, Developers & Contractors
Minted Secure is a preferred new construction security partner for Portland-area builders and developers. We understand construction timelines, Portland permitting, and Oregon’s low-voltage licensing requirements.
General Contractors
We integrate into your Portland build schedule. Our team coordinates pre-wire during framing and returns for trim-out when the building is ready — no surprises, no delays, no conflicts with your subs.
Multi-Family & Condo Developers
Portland’s multi-family market is one of the most active in the Pacific Northwest. We specialize in condo towers, apartment complexes, and mixed-use residential — from South Waterfront high-rises to East Side infill developments.
Residential Developers
Building a subdivision in Wilsonville, Sherwood, Happy Valley, or Damascus? We spec and install security infrastructure across multiple units with a consistent system architecture and builder-friendly pricing.
Commercial Developers
Pearl District mixed-use, Lloyd District office, and Columbia corridor industrial developments need security systems spec’d into the build — not retrofitted afterward at a steep premium.
Electrical Contractors
We work alongside your electrical team to coordinate low-voltage runs, panel locations, and conduit paths — making your job cleaner, reducing callbacks, and satisfying Oregon low-voltage code requirements.
Custom Home Builders
Portland’s custom home clients in West Hills, Lake Oswego, and West Linn expect integrated, future-proof security. We design and pre-wire systems that deliver a premium experience at move-in.
From Blueprint to Operational System
We integrate into your existing construction workflow — not the other way around. Here’s how we typically work on a new construction project in Portland:
Security Scoping & Layout Planning
We review your building plans and design a complete security layout — camera coverage zones, access control points, panel and NVR locations, and conduit paths. We provide documentation suitable for City of Portland permit packages and architectural drawing sets.
Conduit & Pre-Wire Installation
Our team performs the pre-wire — running conduit, placing junction boxes, and pulling low-voltage cable — during the framing or rough-in window. We coordinate directly with your GC and electrical contractor, staying on schedule and compliant with Oregon electrical code.
Trim-Out & Equipment Installation
After drywall, paint, and ceilings are complete, we return to mount cameras, install access control readers and panels, connect the NVR, and wire everything to the head-end equipment room — clean, professional, and ready for inspection.
System Configuration & Testing
We program the complete system — camera names, access schedules, user credentials, mobile app setup — and test every component before occupancy. All systems are documented and ready for City of Portland inspection.
Owner Walkthrough & Handoff
We walk the owner, property manager, or HOA through the full system — live camera views, access credential management, footage retrieval, and how to reach us for ongoing support. The system is theirs from day one.

Whether it’s a South Waterfront high-rise condo tower or a 30-unit residential subdivision in Sherwood — we’ve spec’d and installed security infrastructure for it.

Security Planned at the Right Stage Costs Less & Performs Better
Retrofitting security into a finished Portland building is expensive and compromises the result. Building it in during construction is smarter for builders and better for owners.
Lower Installation Cost
Pre-wiring during construction eliminates the need to cut drywall, run surface conduit, or work around Portland’s finished concrete and masonry buildings — cutting retrofit costs by 30–50%.
Cleaner, Better-Looking Results
Cameras and hardware are flush-mounted with concealed wiring — critical in Portland’s design-conscious market, especially Pearl District and South Waterfront properties where aesthetics matter.
Future-Proof Infrastructure
We pull conduit sized for future upgrades — so when better cameras or additional access points are needed, there’s no need to re-open Portland’s expensive finished walls and ceilings.
Stronger Selling Point
For Portland developers and builders, integrated security infrastructure is a meaningful value-add for buyers, tenants, and commercial lessees — particularly in the competitive condo and mixed-use market.
We Know Portland’s Permitting & Code Requirements
Portland and Multnomah County have specific requirements for low-voltage systems in new construction. Our team is licensed and current on all applicable codes.
