Office IT equipment setup

New equipment. Ready to work.

Bought a new monitor, laptop, printer or docking station? Wayrest can help choose compatible equipment, organise purchasing, set it up and make sure it works with the tools your staff already use.

Example: setting up two new monitors

  1. Check compatibility. We confirm connections, cables, docking stations and available desk space.
  2. Agree on the visit. We schedule installation and confirm whether hardware, labour and travel are included or quoted.
  3. Install and configure. We connect monitors, arrange cables, set resolution and scaling, and check a comfortable display layout.
  4. Test with the employee. We verify the screens and existing peripherals, record the result and explain anything the employee needs to know.

Is setup included in managed IT support?

Routine setup can be covered by a managed IT agreement when the contract includes that work. Otherwise, Wayrest can quote a one-off installation. The goal is predictable service, not surprise charges.

We can diagnose network or connectivity problems, but regulated electrical work and fixed communications cabling must be performed by appropriately qualified people. Wall mounts and unusual physical installations may also require a specialist.

Onsite service is arranged across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Hunter; see where we support businesses.

Preparing for a new employee?

Our new-starter IT checklist covers accounts, permissions, monitors, business apps and day-one testing. For wider coverage, see the business IT support buyer guide.

Equipment setup FAQs

Can you install equipment we bought elsewhere?

Yes, after checking compatibility and condition. Send the model details before arranging installation so we can identify any extra cables, adapters or limitations.

Can we get advice before ordering?

Yes. We can review the intended use, applications, displays and budget, then confirm the requirements before you buy.

Are hardware and installation the same charge?

The quote identifies hardware, labour, delivery and travel separately where applicable. A managed service includes only the setup work expressly covered by the agreement.

Will you move files and set up company accounts?

Data transfer, application setup and account access can be included in the agreed scope. The business approves access and identifies the information to retain.

Can you set up several desks in one visit?

Yes, as a planned rollout. We confirm equipment readiness, building access, staff availability and the acceptance checks before booking.

Do you handle fixed cabling and electrical work?

Regulated cabling and electrical work require appropriately qualified trades. We can coordinate the technical requirements and identify specialist work in the quote.
