Samsara Installation for Mid-Atlantic Fleets

You chose Samsara. Now it has to go in right. P.G. Auto Installs puts in VG series gateways, CM series dual-facing cameras, and asset trackers on-site at fleet yards across Maryland, Virginia, DC, Delaware, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania — every unit verified through the install app before we leave the cab.

Samsara VG gateway installs, wired to last

The VG gateway is the backbone of the install. If it loses power or drops off the network, everything riding on it goes dark. So the wiring gets done like it matters — clean power, solid ground, connections that hold through winters of road salt and years of washboard vibration.

The harness gets routed and secured out of the driver's way. Not draped over the pedals. Not zip-tied to the steering column. Tucked, fastened, and finished so the cab looks like nothing happened — except now the truck reports in.

John and Phil have run 12-volt wiring for nearly 40 combined years — car-audio roots, then automotive electronics, now fleet telematics. A gateway install is a day at the office.

CM series dual-facing cameras, aimed and verified

A dual-facing camera earns its keep only if it sees what it's supposed to see. Mounted wrong, it stares into the visor or catches half a cab. We place the CM camera where it covers the road and the driver without stealing glass from the person doing the driving.

The wiring disappears — up the pillar, across the headliner, down to power. Nothing draped across the windshield, nothing for a driver to snag, nothing to work loose in month three.

Then it gets verified through the install app before we leave the cab: connected, aimed, network-confirmed. Not "should be fine." Confirmed.

Asset trackers for trailers and intermodal chassis

Trailers and chassis take the worst the road offers, and a tracker mounted like an afterthought doesn't survive it. We mount asset trackers where they're protected from spray and strikes and can still see the sky.

Trailer pools, drop lots, intermodal chassis — if it rolls through your operation, we can put eyes on it. Same verification standard as the trucks: confirmed reporting before we call it done.

Fleet rollouts on your schedule, at your yard

We install at your yard, depot, or lot — your vehicles never leave the operation. A rollout runs in waves sized to what dispatch can spare, so the fleet keeps working while it gets equipped.

We also coordinate directly with the hardware shipment, so Samsara units arrive as installs are scheduled instead of sitting in a back office.

Migrating to Samsara from another platform

Switching platforms shouldn't leave scars. When a fleet moves onto Samsara, we pull the old hardware clean — harnesses out, mounts off, no cut wires taped into the loom for the next tech to find.

Then the new hardware goes in and gets the full verification: online, aimed, confirmed through the install app. One crew handles the de-install and the install, so nothing gets lost between contractors.

Straight answers

Are you a certified Samsara installer?

No. We're an independent installation crew — no certification, no partnership, and we won't claim one. We install the hardware, verify it through the install app, and back the work with our own workmanship guarantee.

How do you verify a Samsara install before you leave?

Through the install app, in the cab, on every vehicle. Gateway online and reporting. Camera connected and aimed. Network-confirmed before we pack up. If it doesn't check out, we're not done.

Who orders the Samsara hardware?

You do, through your Samsara rep or vendor. We coordinate directly with the shipment so units arrive as installs are scheduled — not a pallet sitting in your office for weeks.

Can you phase a rollout so trucks stay in service?

Yes. We work in waves sized to what dispatch can spare. You set the pace; we keep the schedule moving until the whole fleet is on Samsara.

Tell us your fleet. We'll wire it.
