Star of Hope wanted to install a security system at the Women and Family Development Center that would allow them to provide a safe environment in which their clients could recover. Given the campus’ extensive layout, they faced several design challenges. Director of Facilities Development, Ike Kimmel, worked closely with the installing contractor, Ricky Johnson from Design Security Controls, a Houston-based integrator to create a system that includes cameras, access control and video intercom that would meet the Center’s needs.

In today’s world, there are a variety of circumstances that can make managing physical security solutions from remote locations a necessity. Whether you have a sudden need to work from home, an abundance of travel coming up, or simply the desire for more peace of mind when security staff is not at the office, now more than ever business owners are on the lookout for ways to view and manage their 24-hour surveillance cameras while off-site.
