Syncbox demonstrates how to add value, while saving installers thousands of pounds in time and money.
It’s said that “time is money” and this phrase has never been more appropriate than when Syncbox – the world’s only universally adaptable, recessed and covered advanced wiring solution for TV, media and speaker system installations – carried out a recent time and motion study to demonstrate that fact.
A big factor in Syncbox’s success is that it improves upon many of the traditional systems currently being installed by most electricians, with proven cost savings on specification, installation, components and labour.
Duncan Summers, Managing Partner & Co-Founder, says: “Syncbox is now a complete range of products that can be turned into any advanced wiring build, consisting of the four main elements: TV, Media, Audio & Power. Customers are able to adapt the Syncbox to their own unique specification and with large projects we can help with the technical drawings.
“The UK’s largest and most prestigious house developers, such as Crest Nicholson, Redrow & Berkeley Homes, are now all using the product, while we’re also currently producing Syncbox bespoke technical drawings for over 20 more of the top 50 developers in the UK, Europe and EMEA.”
Great features
Another feature that Syncbox is well known for is its ultra slim profile, which makes it such an elegant looking product. When installers used Syncbox for the first time many said they’d found it impossible to go back to the original layout because of how easy it is to install. Another big advantage of the system is that it provides tidy and protected cabling, meaning it’s out of sight from other influences, guaranteeing the longevity of the system.
Compared to traditional media outlets, Syncbox is also around 50% smaller and thinner, allowing for a clean and professional finish. Contributing to the professional finish of the product is the cover plate, which can be painted to any wall finish or matched to other electrical items, giving Syncbox its unique good looks.
The traditional cover plate is white, and is included in each pack as standard, however if the customer wishes to choose their own colour then they have a wide variety to select from. These high-end, prestigious cover plates – known as “Exclusive metal” – are produced by Focus SB and come in 12 colours. In addition, “Personal Plastic” cover plates are on offer that can be painted to match any wall.
Cost savings
“Syncbox is completely unique, so it’s vital that we demonstrate the benefits of using our product from a financial perspective. It’s estimated that there will be a 27% cost saving when purchasing a Syncbox, versus the traditional existing format,” adds Duncan.
“When taking into consideration cost and labour, Syncbox will save over £9,000 (based on a 400 unit development with two Syncboxes in each), which is making it hard for businesses to ignore. To further support these claims we’ve produced a Value Engineering Report to show in detail why installers may better off implementing Syncbox.”
System layouts
Whether it’s a high level recessed power outlet, low level media input plate or a 7.1 speaker terminal, continuity of the Syncbox systems throughout a project is paramount to achieve a professional finish.
To add to Syncbox’s reputation, the system is backed by successful business owner, Deborah Meaden, who believes that the product has the potential to change the electrical and AV market for the better. Over 10,000 units have already been sold into the market so far, with many electrical professionals now using it with every install.
Installation videos
To further aid installers we’ve produced some demonstration videos for solid and dry wall installations (www.sync-box.com/videos/) that show how simple and easy Syncbox is.
It’s clear that electricians will be hard pressed to find an easier or more beneficial installation companion than Syncbox.
