What CalLord Installs
Brivo is a cloud-native access control platform built for modern facilities. CalLord installs the full Brivo portfolio: ACS300 and ACS600 series controllers, Brivo Onramp cloud platform, mobile credentialing, and Brivo Lift elevator integration. We also integrate Brivo with third-party video surveillance and alarm systems for unified facility management.
The platform's strength is its cloud architecture — administrators manage doors, users, and schedules from anywhere through the Onramp portal. There's no on-premise server to maintain. For multi-site organizations, Brivo scales cleanly across locations under a single tenant.
Why Choose a Certified Brivo Installer
Not every security contractor is authorized to install Brivo. Certification means the installer has completed Brivo's training program and maintains active status. That matters for warranty validation, firmware support, and access to Brivo's partner resources.
CalLord holds active Brivo installer certification. When you hire us, you're getting someone who knows the platform inside out — not someone who learned it on your job.
System Architecture Overview
A typical Brivo installation includes:
ACS Controller — The panel that manages door readers, locks, and events. The ACS300 handles up to 8 doors per controller; the ACS600 series scales higher. Controllers connect to the cloud via Ethernet or cellular backup.
Readers — Brivo supports multiple reader technologies: proximity, card swipe, keypad, and mobile credential readers. Reader choice depends on your security tier and user experience goals.
Mobile Credentialing — Users authenticate via the Brivo Mobile app instead of physical cards. Mobile credentials eliminate lost-card scenarios and enable instant revocation.
Onramp Platform — The cloud portal where administrators configure doors, assign credentials, set schedules, and review audit logs. Accessible from any browser.
Common Deployment Scenarios
Single-Door Entry — One ACS300 controller, one reader, one lock. Typical for small office entries, retail storefronts, or equipment rooms.
Multi-Door Facility — Multiple ACS300 or ACS600 controllers wired to a central network. Common in office buildings, medical facilities, and educational campuses.
Multi-Site Portfolio — One Brivo tenant managing dozens of locations. Ideal for franchises, property management firms, and regional operations.
Elevator Integration — Brivo Lift restricts elevator floor access by credential. Essential for high-rise security and tenant privacy.
Migration and Upgrade Path
Existing Brivo customers often reach out when they need a replacement controller, additional doors, or a platform upgrade. CalLord handles all three:
- Panel Replacement — Swap aging ACS panels for current-generation hardware while preserving existing credentials and configurations.
- Expansion — Add new doors to an existing Brivo tenant without disrupting current operations.
- Platform Migration — Move from legacy Brivo versions to current Onramp, including credential re-provisioning and schedule migration.
If you have an older Brivo system and aren't sure whether it needs replacing, request a free assessment. We'll tell you honestly whether a refresh makes sense.
