About
Who We Are
Colenet was founded by a qualified electrician with extensive experience in CCTV, fire alarms, and telephone cabling. In 1985, they formed a partnership to carry out installations of telephone cabling, this opportunity came about due to the changes in BT who lost the monopoly of telephone cabling in 1984.
Opportunities were seen in supporting telephone equipment sales companies, such as Mitel and Telephone Rentals, offering a quality and reliable installation services. We continued trading and took on data dabling starting with IBM Type 1, before integrating and moving onto Cat 3, ultimately leading to installing fibre Optics and up to Cat 7 Data Cabling.
Who We Work With
Our Directors have continued supporting cabling in the NHS sector and today we are still carrying out cabling as a data contractor in several A&E Hospitals, either working directly with them or through consultant and design companies as a preferred contractor.
We have been working with one particular trust since 1986, and are still supporting them today by providing engineers full time on a number of projects. In addition, we continue to work closely with the NHS, including throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. We have been working with a Trust in Surrey for Mental Health since 2007, and are their preferred contractor for working safely and securely in a what can be a difficult environment on a daily basis.
Our Engineers
All of our engineers are supported by a team of supervisors, and are constantly being updated with information to ensure best practice and continued learning. We are adept at providing out of hours support, and are familiar with working these due to the sensitivity and safety in working practises to eliminate risk to patients and staff.
We are currently in the process of applying to be on the Excel Partner Programme, however, there has been a delay due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
