TORONTO, ON -- Avante Security is pleased to announce the acquisition of Systems Integration. Karnig Nazaretian and Vic Koukounian, the principals and founders of Systems Integration have joined the management team at Avante.

Established in 1996, Systems Integration focused on value added security solutions in the high-end residential market place. With a strong concentration of clients in the Lawrence Park area, Systems Integration is an ideal complement to Avante’s existing base in Rosedale, Forest Hill and the Bayview/Bridal Path neighbourhoods.

Avante Security has assumed the monitoring responsibility for all of the Systems Integration accounts effective immediately. Those clients wishing to upgrade their existing security and response packages will now have access to the most comprehensive service available in this market.

Avante executive response solutions are based on 724 Interactive technology and offer an unparalleled level of reliability and speed of response. Avante services include secure driving, alarm response and neighbourhood patrol to on-site and special event security. The Avante Crisis Centre ensures triple redundancy of any alarm transmission, i.e. alarm signals are being transmitted
1) to the Central Monitoring Station via phone lines,
2) wirelessly to the Avante Crisis Centre, and
3) wirelessly to Blackberry handhelds of the Avante Mobile Officers.

724 Interactive is a new standard of integrated wireless technologies designed for virtually instant bi-directional communication of alarm information. 724 Interactive interfaces with the main Control Panel and instantly transmits full alarm data using nationwide wireless network to Blackberry handhelds of authorized personnel including mobile response officers, security on site, facility management and office staff or, alternatively, to authorized cell phones. Wireless alarm transmission of 724 Interactive reduces reliance on physical phone lines and drastically cuts the response time to any emergency situation, resulting in a safer and more effective system.

Furthermore, 724 Interactive enables authorized users to have full interactive communication with their system. End users, either through a Blackberry handheld or a secure Internet connection (724 Web Interface), are able to remotely turn on or off appliances, dim or brighten lights, and visually monitor house, office or other facilities via web-enabled cameras.

Avante is pleased to offer the following enhanced executive response packages:

724 Interactive Communicator (installation included) - $1,000;
Triple Monitoring (digital, wireless, transmitting to two stations)- $920 per annum;
Basic Executive Response starting at 2,000 per annum;
