Build a System That Works for Your Security Needs

One of the surest ways to improve business security is to install an access control system. In large corporations, access control manages who can and cannot enter buildings and provides swift entry to your staff. 

While keys have historically functioned as ‘access control,’ they can be easily lost and are time-consuming to replace or issue. Plus, if hundreds or even thousands of people pass through your business, using keys will cause clusters at the door, letting unwarranted people slip in behind. 

Instead, integrated access control provides instant access through a turnstile or door with a quick tap of a card, phone scan, or other methods. And not all access control systems have to function the same. You can customize remote access control to meet your business’s unique needs.

Before installing a remote access control system, consider these four questions. And to get started with access control in the Plano, TX or Dallas/Ft. Worth area, contact Texadia Systems here. 

Get Creative & Engage with Customers through Stunning Video Displays

In the Harry Potter movies, we marveled at paintings that magically moved on the Hogwarts walls. Isn't it incredible that today, with technology like microLED displays, we can achieve that magic in real life? What once would have been a poster or TV can be replaced by sleek, ultra-thin video walls of any shape or size. 

You can use digital signage in endless ways at your business, like a blank canvas open for your imagination. Whether you’re enhancing the atmosphere or sharing critical information, digital signage is a smart way to engage customers in any industry. 

In this article, we’ll share three unique ways to use digital signs for your business. And the magic of it? You can change how you use it at any time.

How to Make Your Hotel the Business Destination in Dallas

When businessmen and women touch down in Dallas with briefcases and laptops, will they be heading to your hotel? 

Not if your conference rooms haven’t been updated in many years. After all, a lot has changed in the business world in the past few years, and if your meeting rooms are outdated, you’ll need updated AV that can support hybrid meetings. 

With the right tools in your meeting rooms, local and faraway businesses will likely choose your hotel for their next trips and conferences. And if the conferencing experience exceeds their expectations, they may even book your hotel every time they’re in town. 

Read on to see what hotel AV you need to succeed in the modern business world. And to upgrade your Texas hotel’s AV, contact Texadia Systems to get started today. 

How You Can Customize Your Smart Lighting System 

Have you used a smart bulb before? They’ve become increasingly popular in recent years and are even available at stores like The Home Depot and online on Amazon. While it’s fun to play with lighting colors from your phone, DIY smart bulbs aren’t a practical solution to illuminate your entire house. They often have trouble saving settings, don’t communicate with each other, and lack customization options. 

But there is an alternative. Sophisticated lighting control systems like Lutron and Control4 are built for whole-home control and are smart enough to group lights together and operate them on a schedule. 

The possibilities are nearly endless with high-end lighting systems that can be used to make your house look and feel more comfortable than ever. 

Here’s how you can control LED lights in your Southlake home with smart systems like Lutron and Control4. And to bring smart lighting to your Texas home, contact Texadia Systems here. 

Who Knew Window Shades Could Be So Beneficial?

Have you experienced the magic of motorized shades? 

Controlling multiple window shades at once is handy, especially when it’s done through a single tap of a button. But when you automate your motorized shades to follow a routine—and when you use the right kind of shading materials—you achieve incredible things. 

What kinds of things? When done right, your motorized shades help your home reduce energy consumption and even preserve your furniture, wall coverings, and artwork to last longer. 

While these benefits may seem far-fetched, below we’ll explain how automating motorized shades work wonders for your Dallas, TX home. And to learn more about smart home technologies, contact Texadia Systems here. 

The Pros & Cons of TVs vs. Projectors

Projector systems have long reigned supreme in home theaters. After all, TVs aren’t large enough to create the cinematic, immersive experience you expect to see in a movie theater. 

That is until recently. Brands like Sony have been manufacturing LED and OLED displays in larger dimensions than ever, now reaching 100 inches wide with the Sony BRAVIA XR X92. At more than eight feet in length, Sony’s 100-inch television can rival the image size of a home theater projector. 

But which should you use in your home theater design—a projector or 100-inch TV? We compare both below to help you find the best choice. 

And if you’re looking for a home theater installation in the Dallas, TX, area, contact Texadia Systems to learn more. 

Design Your Conference Room with Better Audio in Mind 

Aren’t hybrid meetings incredible? Some teams meet from the office while other participants are located elsewhere, and we can all still see and hear each other with tools like Zoom and Teams. 

If only it were that simple. In reality, many businesses need help to overcome technical difficulties with hybrid meetings. One major challenge is audio. Remote participants often cannot hear what people in the conference room are saying since the only microphone is at the front of the room. Likewise, in the conference room, the only speakers are below the display, making staff strain to hear and pay attention. 

Hybrid meetings in the conference room aren’t meant to be treated the same way as using a laptop. Instead, businesses need the proper conference room AV to create a successful collaboration experience. Here’s how we can build systems that help your McKinney, TX, business succeed.

Find the Best Solution for Your Business’s Technology

If your business needs new AV technology, you have a few options for obtaining it. You could purchase the devices up front. You could lease the equipment. Or, you could subscribe to an AV as a service plan. 

While some people may think technology-as-a-service and leasing are synonymous, they’re actually very different processes with different outcomes. Here’s what makes them different and why AV as a service may be more worthwhile for your Dallas, TX company.

Uplift Your Spirits in the Darkest Times of Years

As we enter into fall and winter, the days are getting shorter and the sun sets earlier in the day. If darker days give you the winter blues, there’s a way to bring warmth to your home and boost your mood: warm dim tunable lighting. 

What is warm dim lighting, you may ask? It’s a lighting control technology that automatically shifts your lightbulbs into a warm, golden hue as they dim. So while your lights shine bright with cool tones during the day, at night, they dim to a cozy warm glow.

Warm dim lighting isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s proven to enhance our well-being and help us live better, especially during winter. In this article, we’ll share how lighting control can benefit your Dallas, TX home from morning to night. And for more information, contact Texadia Systems here! 

A New Era of Home Lighting

LED lighting is more than a type of lightbulb. It’s a way to transform the mood of any room and uplift your home’s atmosphere. In addition, LED lighting saves energy and time and can be automated to follow your routine. 

Compared to incandescent and CFL lights, LED lights are unique, thanks to their automation and smart control capabilities. And you can make the most of LEDs with special lighting fixtures built purposefully with design and automation in mind. 

It’s a new age of lighting, and we couldn’t be more excited to introduce this new technology to homeowners in the Frisco, TX area. To learn more about a new lighting system for your home, contact Texadia Systems here. 

You Can Do Better Than a Portable Speaker 

When you want to listen to music outdoors, do you rely on a small portable speaker for the entire lawn? It’s very unlikely that a single speaker can reach all ends of the yard. And if you walk out of your Wi-Fi or Bluetooth range, you’ll lose connection, and music will cut out. 

There’s a better way to bring music to your outdoor living spaces. When you work with a professional audio-video company like Texadia Systems, we install an outdoor speaker setup that withstands the elements and plays audio just as clearly as an outdoor concert. 

Here’s what it takes to build an outdoor speaker system! And to learn more for your Dallas, TX home, contact Texadia Systems for a free consultation. 

UCaaS Enhances Communication and Collaboration While Reducing IT Costs

Note: This blog was originally published October 2022 and was revised October 2024 with more current information.

Paul J. Meyer, founder of the Success Motivation Institute, once said, "Communication—the human connection—is the key to personal and career success.”

Communication has always been one of the critical cornerstones of a successful business. Those that continue to improve their communication systems increase productivity and provide better customer service.

Today, unified communication solutions (UC) are the key to uniting businesses—especially in the hybrid era of remote work. With UC, one cloud-based platform consolidates your communication and collaboration technology, creating a seamless experience across any location. 

One of the top commercial trends in 2024-2025 is Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS). These cloud communication solutions include online meetings, emailing, VoIP phone lines, personal and team messaging, and video conferencing tools.

Let’s explore the benefits of cloud communication and the top UC players for your Dallas, TX, business. And if you're ready to get started with UC? Contact Texadia Systems here.

The Number One Priority for Businesses: Protecting Staff

What is your most valuable asset? Most employers would recognize that it’s their employees. In fact, ensuring a happy staff will go a long way in running a successful business. As Simon Sinek said, “Customers will never love a company until the employees love it first.” One of the best ways to instill passion and loyalty is by taking proactive measures that let your employees know they're cared for. Protecting your team members should be the top priority of every business leader. 

In addition to training them to recognize danger and respond accordingly, operators can integrate security measures that keep them safe. An access control system is vital in this area and offers a “safety net” for your staff in Dallas, TX. If you’re interested in employing these critical devices, our team at Texadia Systems in the Dallas-Fort Worth area is here to help.
