The practice
Cooper designs the systems a building depends on. Security, fire, cameras, access, lighting, climate, sound and picture, planned together, installed by our own technicians and supported for as long as you own them.
Designed, not assembled
Every project starts with a survey of the property and a conversation about how you use it. Equipment comes after.
Proven components
We specify hardware we have tested in the field for years, in configurations we know will hold up.
One point of contact
The people who install your system are the people who service it. No call centers, no starting over.
Two disciplines
Homes and buildings ask different things of a system.

Experience
Three decades of installing, servicing and learning what lasts.
Most problems we are called to fix began as installation problems: a smoke sensor too close to a duct, outdoor cameras on indoor brackets, Wi-Fi asked to do a cable's job. Thirty years in the field teaches you to avoid them.

Selected capabilities
Built from details.
A few of the things we design, install and service every week, in homes and commercial buildings.
Remote entry
Let a contractor in from three states away, then lock the door behind them.
Scenes, not switches
One seven-button keypad replaces a wall of switches and sets the room in a press.
Dedicated home theaters
Projector or large-format panel, surround sound, and the equipment rack hidden in a closet.
Motorized shading
Shades that close for movie night, follow sunrise and keep the sun off floors and furniture.
Structured wiring
Clean racks, labeled runs and access points placed where coverage actually needs them.
Conference and training rooms
Display, microphones and in-ceiling speakers, set up so anyone can walk in and present.
Restaurant and bar systems
Background music, paging and screens for game day, each zoned by area.
From the field
Why installation matters.
Real calls from systems we installed and monitor. Each one came down to a sensor in the right place and a signal that got through.
Home security systemsPittstown, NJCarbon monoxide · 1:00 AM
A CO sensor trips in the middle of the night.
Our monitoring station reaches the homeowner while the Quakertown Fire Company is dispatched. Firefighters measure carbon monoxide at life-threatening levels.
Family safeSomerville, NJSmoke · Mixed use
Smoke in an apartment above a dental office.
The fire department finds a fire inside a recessed light in a newly renovated bathroom, caught early enough to prevent serious damage.
Contained earlyResidenceEntry chime · 5:00 AM
A door chime ends a break-in.
With the alarm off, chime mode sounds as a basement door opens and the intruder leaves. Police later confirm several neighboring homes were burglarized that morning.
Nothing takenResidenceFire · December
A candle left burning on a piano.
Hours after a family leaves for the holidays, the smoke sensor reports a fire in the music room. Early detection means smoke damage instead of a lost home.
