We need to replace our current alarm system because it is obsolete and the service is exiting the commercial side of the business.  We also need a newer video surveillance system, both inside and out.  Any suggestions on vendors and what we should consider from a surveillance standpoint would be appreciated.  Our museum has about 30,000 square feet on three floors.  Thank you.

Fred, 

If you want to go the designed route, as opposed to working directly with a vendor, I would recommend Steve Keller and Associates, Inc.
