Self Install or Professional Installation?
We support both paths. The real difference is the warranty and who does the work, so here is the honest comparison we give customers on the phone.
Professional Installation by RSG
What you get
- Certified RSG technicians in all 50 states, including Alaska and Hawaii
- Scheduling on your terms, including off hours and grand openings, with construction team coordination
- A standard 2 pedestal storefront takes a few hours on site; larger retrofits run a full day
- Systems professionally installed by RSG are backed by RSG’s own 1 year warranty
- Installation for an AM or RF system is $1,495 across the continental US; Alaska, Hawaii, and remote locations are quoted to account for travel
Requires
- Your entrance widths and register count for a written quote, request a quote or call 1-888-909-8247
Self Install
What you get
- We sell the pedestals with lifetime free phone technical support for self installation and specify the right components for your store either way.
- Tags, labels, and accessories carry a 30 day replacement guarantee against defects
- Refurbished Sensormatic and Checkpoint equipment is depot tested and backed by us for 30 days
Requires
- A reasonably handy person or local handyman. We provide a self install EAS pedestal wiring guide along with free phone technical support to help with setup and tuning.
Either Way, We Keep It Running
Inside the warranty window we troubleshoot remotely, ship replacements, or dispatch a technician. Out of warranty, our depot program keeps systems running long after the original manufacturers stop supporting them, including legacy Sensormatic and Checkpoint systems. See nationwide EAS installation and service for the full coverage story.
Which Should You Pick?
- Choose professional installation if you want the most reliable system, the 1 year warranty, you are opening on a deadline, or you are rolling out multiple locations.
- Choose self install if you are a reasonably handy person with a straightforward single entrance storefront, or if you are in a remote location.
