Installation & Commissioning
Specialist installation, programming, commissioning and handover for operable façade and window-control systems throughout New Zealand.
EBSA NZ Ltd installs and commissions commercial-grade window automation, manual window-control systems, control panels, natural ventilation systems, smoke-control openings and architectural glass louvres.
Our team carries the project from coordinated design information through practical site delivery, testing, commissioning and handover.
We work directly with builders, façade contractors, aluminium joiners, electricians, mechanical contractors, fire contractors, BMS contractors and consultants to integrate the system with the wider project.
Waitākere Gardens, Auckland — automated architectural glass louvres delivered and installed for Metlifecare, one of New Zealand’s largest retirement village operators.
Specialist site delivery for operable façade systems
Operable façade systems combine mechanical installation, field wiring, control-panel configuration, actuator programming and building-system interfaces. EBSA coordinates these elements as one specialist package, supporting efficient installation, reliable operation and a clear handover.
Each project is aligned with the opening type, control strategy, site access, trade responsibilities and commissioning sequence.
Installation delivery
Installation of actuators, manual operating components, control panels, field devices, architectural glass louvres and related system hardware.
Commissioning & handover
Programming, system checks, operational testing, interface coordination, commissioning records and handover support.

Coordination that starts before installation
EBSA confirms access, mounting details, cable routes, control-panel locations, trade responsibilities and commissioning requirements during design development and pre-start coordination.
We coordinate directly with the builder, aluminium joiner, façade contractor, electrician, mechanical contractor, fire contractor, BMS contractor and consultant team.
Rough-in coordination
Confirm field-cabling pathways, panel and actuator locations, access requirements, interface points and installation responsibilities before rough-in proceeds.
Commissioning readiness
Confirm power, field wiring, terminations, control logic, interface signals, access arrangements and the commissioning sequence before integrated testing begins.
Field cabling, terminations and control panels
Automated window and ventilation systems depend on coordinated control panels, field cabling, actuators, switches, sensors and interface signals. EBSA prepares project-specific wiring schematics for its control systems and defines drive groups, field devices, interface points and panel terminations.
EBSA can complete field cabling and terminations where these works are included in our proposal. Where the project electrician installs the field cabling, EBSA provides project-specific wiring schematics, cable and device requirements, termination details and commissioning coordination.
A clearly defined interface schedule gives each trade the information needed to complete its work and supports an efficient commissioning process.
Programming and control setup
EBSA programs and configures operable façade systems before testing and handover. Programming may include actuator addressing, grouping, stroke settings, speed settings, control logic, sensor settings, ventilation inputs and interface behaviour.
Our team programs applicable D+H Mechatronic drives, PS-VFM1 and GVL natural ventilation controls, RZN, CPS-B and CPS-P smoke-control panels, and CPS-M modular control panels.
| Programming item | Typical purpose |
|---|---|
| Drive programming | Configures actuator addressing, stroke, grouping, speed and operating behaviour for the selected drive family. |
| Control panel setup | Configures drive groups, inputs, outputs, sensors, switches, interface points and operating logic. |
| Sensor and switch setup | Checks manual controls, weather inputs, room sensors and override devices against the intended control strategy. |
| Interface coordination | Coordinates BMS, fire, mechanical and other third-party signals with the EBSA control system. |
Commissioning and handover
Commissioning brings together the installed equipment, field wiring, programming and interface signals and confirms operation against the agreed control intent.
EBSA completes operational testing, actuator and control-panel checks, sensor and switch checks, interface testing, diagnostic review and handover for its installed systems.
- Verify actuator open and close operation
- Verify manual switch and override operation
- Test rain, wind and room-sensor inputs
- Test control-panel outputs and connected field devices
- Confirm drive grouping and programmed operation
- Coordinate BMS, fire and mechanical interface testing
- Verify cause-and-effect operation for smoke-control systems
- Test mains-failure and battery-backed operation where applicable
- Review alarms, faults and operating exceptions
- Complete handover and maintenance planning
Smoke-control system commissioning
Smoke control is a life-safety function distinct from day-to-day natural ventilation. EBSA commissions automated openings and control equipment used for stair-pressurisation relief, low-level make-up air for mechanical smoke exhaust and natural smoke exhaust.
This work is coordinated with the project fire strategy, cause-and-effect matrix, power supplies, BMS and fire-system interfaces, access requirements and integrated testing programme.
EBSA commissions D+H RZN and CPS-M smoke-control panels, including battery-backed operation, fault monitoring, drive groups and project interfaces.
EBSA commissions its supplied equipment and interfaces against the agreed fire strategy, cause-and-effect matrix and integrated testing requirements for the project.
D+H equipment installation and support
EBSA directly imports, supplies, installs, programs, commissions and supports D+H Mechatronic window automation and control equipment in New Zealand, including drives, control panels, sensors, switches and related accessories.
From product selection through commissioning, maintenance and replacement support, customers work with a local specialist team that understands the complete D+H system.
