smart interactive whiteboards commercial audio-visual installation soundsmith kendal cumbria uk

We take real pride in the design and implementation of all our installations. Whether it's a simple projector & interactive whiteboard, or a fully automated conference centre, every job receives the same attention to detail. And, we understand that you don’t wish to become an ‘AV expert’ just to operate the equipment, so we integrate systems that make their operation simplicity itself.

We have formed excellent working relationships both with our suppliers and other major players in the industry, so that we can offer our clients the most comprehensive service possible. Even so, however diverse the project gets, you will always have a single point of contact for the entire operation, and you will only encounter our in-house installation engineers who are polite and friendly, time-served within the industry as well as fully qualified electricians.

Integrated AV Systems

With access to products from hundreds of manufacturers, and no allegiance to any of them, we are able to specify equipment that will produce the best results for our clients. The first stage in any project is to establish a brief with our clients, including what functionality is expected from the system and any budgetary constraints that may exist. From there we will draw up a system specification and layout diagrams if necessary, along with a detailed quotation setting out all of the costs involved. We are accustomed to liaising with architects/building contractors and electricians etc. and have an excellent track record regarding communication and co-operation with building trades during installations. The range of equipment and systems we install is vast. Please get in touch with your specific requirements and we will be glad to arrange a site visit so that we can produce a free no-obligation quote for you.

Control Systems

Soundsmith can design and install control systems which enable our customer to control lighting, air conditioning, heating, blinds and of course all of their audio visual equipment with one touch of a remote control or wall-mounted keypad. Our systems are designed by experts and programmed with specific regard to the end user's requirements. This service is truly bespoke. Please contact us for more information regarding control systems and their almost limitless possibilities.

Museums & Visitor Attractions

We offer a completely turnkey service from an initial meeting to establishing client/system and content requirements, to quoting, producing detailed schematic diagrams, liaising with architects/builders/other trades, through to 1st & 2nd fix installation and commissioning. From there we offer a full 12 month warranty covering parts and workmanship, and competitive maintenance contracts thereafter. We work regularly with a team of time-served joiners and builders to produce stunning exhibits/visitor attractions, all with one point of contact and one bill when the project has been signed off. Our support packages include telephone support and online monitoring of system status, with an engineer call-out service when necessary. We have forged strong relationships with content producers so that we can supply any multimedia content or moving/still images/voiceovers that our clients may require. These can include interactive pieces using touchscreens and all manner of environmental triggers.

Interactive Products Inc Whiteboards

People choose the SMART Board interactive whiteboard because it helps energise presentations and motivate learners. In 1991, it was the world's first interactive whiteboard. Today, it is the world's leading interactive whiteboard. Combining the simplicity of a whiteboard with the power of a computer, the SMART Board interactive whiteboard engages students and audiences around the world. The touch-sensitive display connects to your computer and digital projector to show your computer image. You can then control computer applications directly from the display, write notes in digital ink and save your work to share later. Best of all, the full-featured SMART Board interactive whiteboard is incredibly easy to use. If you can use a computer, you can use a SMART Board interactive whiteboard.

Our employees have undergone a programme of training and auditing to enable Soundsmith to become an officially Accredited Reseller of all SMART products.
