Our AV
Installation
Process

One conference room or a full floor, the sequence is the same, and every step accounts for how New York buildings actually operate.

  1. Site survey & building walk

    We walk the space with you and the building engineer: ceiling heights, structure, power, riser access and the path equipment will take from the loading dock.

  2. Design & building approvals

    Drawings, signal flow and a bill of materials, packaged for landlord and managing-agent review alongside your architect and general contractor.

  3. Staging off site

    Racks are built, wired and programmed before they reach Manhattan, which keeps freight elevator time and on-site hours to a minimum.

  4. Installation after hours

    Our crews install to plan around building rules, working nights and weekends in occupied towers and phasing floor by floor.

  5. Commissioning & training

    Every display calibrated, every loudspeaker measured and every control page tested with your team in the room before handover.

  6. Local support

    As-built documentation, then a 24/7 help desk, remote monitoring and on-site service from our SoHo office.

AV Support, Monitoring & Maintenance

Plenty of integrators disappear after handover. DIST keeps a help desk answering 24/7, monitors enrolled rooms remotely so we often spot a failed device before your team does, and sends engineers from our SoHo office when a fix needs hands on site.

  • Remote monitoring and alerts
  • Preventive maintenance visits
  • Firmware and security updates
  • Adds, moves and changes when teams reshuffle floors
  • Support for systems installed by other integrators

NYC AV installation questions

Cost, timelines and building logistics, answered.

How much does audio visual installation cost in New York City?

It depends on the room count, display sizes and how much structure and cabling the building needs. A single huddle or conference room is a very different budget from a floor-wide rollout or an LED wall. After a site survey we provide a fixed, itemized proposal so you can compare options line by line.

How long does a commercial AV installation take in Manhattan?

A single conference room is usually installed and commissioned in one to three days once equipment is on site. Multi-room floors and venues typically take two to six weeks, scheduled around construction and building access windows.

Can you install AV in an occupied office building?

Yes. Most of our New York work is in occupied towers. We stage equipment off site, book freight elevators ahead of time, and schedule disruptive work for nights and weekends so your teams can keep working.

Do you handle landlord requirements and certificates of insurance?

Yes. We issue COIs naming the landlord and managing agent, submit drawings and scopes for building approval, and coordinate with the base-building engineer on riser access, power and ceiling work.

Do you install LED video walls in New York?

Yes. DIST installed a 59-foot LED video wall for Well & Durst in New York, used for town halls and seminars. We handle structure, power, processing and content control for walls of every size.

Do you install Microsoft Teams Rooms and Zoom Rooms in New York?

Yes. We install certified video bars, cameras, ceiling microphones and touch controllers, and roll the same room standard across every floor so people get the same experience wherever they book.

Can you reuse our existing AV equipment when we move offices?

Often. We audit what you have, move what's worth keeping, and plan replacements for anything that won't support your new rooms or platforms.

Do you work with our architect, general contractor and IT team?

Yes. We coordinate AV drawings with the architect and MEP engineer, schedule rough-in with the GC, and agree network requirements with IT before install day.

Do you install AV for restaurants and bars in New York?

Yes. We design zoned audio, multi-display video and simple controls for hospitality spaces, including the sports bar system at State of Play.

Do you offer AV support contracts in NYC?

Yes. Support includes a 24/7 help desk and on-site service from our SoHo office, plus remote monitoring, preventive maintenance and firmware updates. We also support systems other integrators installed.

Which areas of New York do you cover for AV installation?

All five boroughs, including Midtown, Hudson Yards, the Financial District, SoHo, Brooklyn and Long Island City, from our office on Mercer Street in SoHo.
