An Introduction to Lighting Considerations

Automation Design + Entertainment, Inc. is a residential and commercial integration company that designs, installs, and services state-of-the-art electronics, which enhance the lifestyle and leisure time activities of our distinguished clientele.

When it comes to running your company, a security system is something you don't like to think about. You don't want to imagine that everything you've worked for will be a target for crime or fire, but statistics show that it's happening from the smallest stores to the largest retail chains.

AD+E can design a burglary system customized for your needs. Whether you want to use wireless or wired products, we can create a system that is easy to expand or upgrade.

There are many features to consider.
For example, if you own a pharmacy and want to limit access to the supply room, you can use our partitioning capabilities that would protect the supply room at all times without affecting other areas. It's like a system in a system without the additional cost of a separate set-up.

Another way to keep track of the events in your location is with Opening/Closing Reports. When the system is monitored by a central station, this is a very important service they can provide. The opening report lets you know who disarms the system in the morning and at what time. At night, the closing report tells you who arms the system and at what time. Depending on the option you select, opening/closing reports can be supplied to you monthly or weekly.

If you allow others to open and close your store, a valuable option may be the Opening/Closing exception report. This allows you to designate the time period that your store can be opened and closed. For example, if your business hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., you may want your store to only be opened from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. If the store is opened earlier than that, the central station would be notified. Depending on your arrangement with the central station, they could call you to alert you that someone has opened your store earlier than you've requested.

Fire Protection
Fire is one disaster that could put you right out of business. Our fire detection systems allow for affordable and reliable protection that complies to stringent fire codes. Our UL approved manual pull stations allow for the manual activation of the system. Our supervised smoke detectors give you additional protection. To prevent water damage, use our water flow supervisory systems. They report to the central station whenever water begins to flow through a sprinkler. This allows you to minimize the effects of water damage that can be even more expensive than fixing the fire damage.

  • Automatic Fire Alarm Systems
  • Water flow Systems
  • Products Comply to Stringent Fire Codes

CCTV and Video
In this technological era we live in, we can use some of the advances to help you protect your business from shoplifting as well as employee theft. We all like to think that our employees are trustworthy, but the US Chamber of Commerce estimates that about 30% of all business failures are traced directly to employee theft.

Make the Investment to Protect your Investment
When it comes to video, there are a variety of options. Our dealers can design a system with specifications from one to 100 CCTV cameras. We offer PC-based CCTV systems to remote video transmission systems. For smaller businesses, there is also the option of affordable observation systems. We will discuss your specific needs to determine the system that is right for you.

A safer employee is a more productive worker.
