“We needed a better way to control access to certain areas of our property, so we contacted Automation Racks about an Access Control System. The team explained the available options clearly and helped us choose a setup that fit our needs. The installation was handled carefully, and they made sure everything was working properly before leaving. I also appreciated how responsive they were when we had a few questions afterward. Overall, the process was organized, professional, and easy to deal with.”

“Julio came over to do some work with the networking and ethernet around our house, and he did an amazing job! He came in on time and provided us with top quality service, very professional. I can now have a high speed LAN connection anywhere in my house.”

“Urbin, his electrician who did most of the work, was always on time, meticulous with his work and cleaned everything up after. Super professional job—what more can one ask? I highly recommend Automation Racks for your house projects.”
