A little maintenance behind the scenes helps keep everything running smoothly. 🔧

Our team recently serviced this AV and automation rack in a small office in Kennedys Bush, giving the system a thorough check and clean.

The service included:
✅ Software updates, patches and driver installations
✅ Removing dust and cleaning the equipment
✅ Tidying cables and removing unused cabling
✅ Testing the system to check everything was working well

From home audio and entertainment to smart home controls, regular maintenance helps keep your technology reliable and ready when you need it.

Is your gate intercom missing calls, dropping its connection or showing a blurry picture? Those small changes can make it harder to see who’s at the gate and let them in when you need to.

A system check-up can help identify issues with the intercom, network connection or access controls before they become more disruptive. Our latest blog covers the signs to watch for and what a maintenance check may include.

If your system isn’t working as it should, call Elite Automation on 0800 354 832 to discuss a check-up in Christchurch or Canterbury.

🔐 A reliable gate intercom starts with the right wiring.

When the team arrived to install this system, we found that the existing cabling had not been routed to the required locations.

Our technician adapted the installation on-site, running new cabling beneath the house, connecting the indoor monitor and network, extending Power over Ethernet to the gate, and reconfiguring the gate wiring.

The intercom, access code and gate automation were then commissioned and thoroughly tested to ensure everything worked together reliably—finished neatly and left tidy.

It's often the small details that make the biggest difference.

Recently, our team was called in after a solar installation had been completed, but the property's alarm system and doorbell had stopped working. On inspection, we found a faulty alarm battery, corrosion on alarm terminals, a missing cover, and some untidy workmanship in the roof space.

Our technician took the time to tidy the installation, replace the battery, clear fault codes, and leave everything functioning properly again.

At Elite Automation, we believe quality work isn't just about getting systems running. It's about leaving every installation safe, tidy, reliable, and finished to the standard we'd expect in our own homes.
