Elevator Monitoring
Most commercial buildings have an elevator and need monitoring services for it. Elevator monitoring provides communication between those on the elevator and professional operators. The service is helpful in case of an emergency or elevator malfunction. Trained operators can quickly notify the local fire department of any issues onsite. Don’t forget to have your elevator phone tested often. It is vital to make sure the device is working correctly should an emergency occur.

Commercial buildings are required to have their fire and sprinkler systems inspected annually. You may not have known, but ADS can help you with this yearly task. We have a department of trained inspectors who follow NFPA guidelines. Our dedicated team will inspect your building thoroughly. Upon completion, an inspection report gets submitted to the fire department promptly.
If any items fail during your inspection, we can provide a quote for repairs and complete them. After the necessary repairs are taken care of, the fire department will get an updated report. We are here to help keep your building in compliance.

One of the best features of both business and residential security systems is remote app access. In today’s digital world, there’s an app for everything – and your security system is no different. Arm and disarm your alarm remotely or view and monitor video footage from anywhere there’s a Wi-Fi connection. Security apps allow you to keep an eye on your home or property regardless of how far away you are.
Business owners like remote app access because it allows them to monitor their property overnight and during off-hours. Virtually, they can check-in on employees at any given time. Homeowners can use remote access to check on their children, babysitters, or monitor activity while on vacation.
