The installation of a Digital TV upgrades, Hotel Information Channel, Keycard Locks and Induction Loop systems will create the absolute minimum of disruption to the running of the business, and in most cases take no longer than two days to complete.
TV Systems
 Digital Channel Upgrade - Our engineers will replace the existing aerial with a wideband digital aerial or satellite dish. We will then install a digital processing unit into the loft, store cupboard or office. The digital processing unit is about the size of a small briefcase and once programmed it will take the digital signal from the aerial, process the signal to produce the range of channels selected by the Hotel owner and output the signal in a format standard analogue TVs can use, through the existing cable network. The TVs are then retuned by the engineer at a time which suits the Hotel cleaning rota.
The advantages with this system are that we can provide excellent quality pictures from digital transmissions to 99% of the UK, the Hotel Owner has full control over the range of channels and it is possible to use the existing TV’s.
 Full Digital System – This system distributes the complete Freeview signal to every television, providing the full range of 70+ TV and Radio channels with interactive services. Your customer will have the same Freeview Television experience they receive at home.
Our engineers will replace the existing aerial, install a digital signal filtering and amplification unit into the loft, store cupboard or office. Distribute the signal to the rooms using a new or existing cable network, and supply integrated Freeview LCD televisions.
No two systems are the same so we have to work flexibly, and as such, if your hotel does not have a TV system – we can install a new one, if you have two systems – we can often link them, or if you are in an area outside Freeview coverage - we can use satellite signals.
Hotel Information Channel – Using the latest digital computer technology it is possible to introduce a dynamic scrolling hotel information channel. Imagine the additional revenues you can make by promoting hotel services through your own internal TV channel or the cost savings you can make as you will no longer need information packs in the rooms.
We will design for you a small presentation, using freely available software, which will run on a loop 24/7, through the TV system. You can either expand the presentation yourself or use a graphic designer to add that professional touch. Combining the computers massive storage capacity and the software programmes versatility it is possible to have thousands of pages, with background music, high quality pictures and video clips.
The information provided on the channel is entirely up to you, but it can include; channel listings, restaurant menus, drinks offers, additional hotel services and even advertising for other local businesses. The most important aspect of this system is that you can update or add new information instantly using a specially manufactured computer which we will fit into your reception or office.
Hotel Door Locks
 The security of the hotel and the safety of the guests and staff are of the utmost importance to any hotelier. Our range of systems offer the latest innovations in door lock technology, including:
Magnetic swipe – We install an integrated magnetic card reader and electronic mortice lock unit onto a hotel room door. A swipe card programmer is located in reception, the receptionist programmes the card, using a magnetic strip, to the specific room, the room lock then identifies the card using a magnetic reader.
Smartcard – A similar model to the magnetic swipe card but with this system the information is stored on a microchip embedded within the card. Smartcards are slightly more expensive than magnetic swipe but the cards are less liable to have their code corrupted during extensive use.
Using the stand alone card programmer it is possible to format and reuse cards constantly and also set different security levels to allow access to certain areas. The locks themselves are powered by 4xAA batteries which provide enough power for tens of thousands of openings. Most importantly they store information on their usage which can be obtained from the lock and read via the card programmer.
Induction loop systems convert sound from microphones or audio sources such as HI-FI’s or Televisions into an electro-magnetic signal which can be picked up by the hearing aid when its 'T-switch' is selected. This not only improves sound quality for the hearing aid wearer, it cuts out noise and other distracting sounds. More
