We are proud to have worked alongside Widseth Nor-Son Construction and the City Of East Gull Lake to bring this to life.

Our involvement was centered around the boardroom, where we provided full audio/video conferencing services, sound reinforcement, and multiple displays for information dissemination. More information can be found here on our case study page:

Thank you to Fabricators Unlimited and Mid Minnesota Builders Association for hosting the chili cookoff today! There were some strong contenders and it was hard to only vote for three. 🤪

Security cameras are supposed to keep an eye on things... but that doesn't mean everyone needs to keep an eye on THEM. 👀📹

Ever notice how most security cameras come in pretty limited color options?

White. Black. Maybe another shade of white. 😂

But what happens when the best camera for a particular location doesn't exactly match the beautiful exterior of your home?

That's where we get a little creative!

For this project, we selected several different surveillance cameras based on what each location needed to capture. Different areas of a property require different views, features, and capabilities.

And rather than choosing cameras based on which ones came in the right color, we chose the RIGHT cameras and customized their appearance.

Our team can carefully disassemble and paint compatible cameras to help them blend into their surroundings.

That means homeowners don't have to choose between security technology that performs well and equipment that looks good on their home.

We handle the camera selection, installation, setup, configuration, and even the finishing touches.

📸 Take a look at a few examples from this project and see how we made the technology work with the home instead of standing out from it.

Can you spot all the cameras?

When it comes to TVs, is BIGGER always BETTER? 📺👀

Because let's be honest... nobody walks into the electronics store thinking, "I'd really like a smaller TV." 😂

With televisions getting bigger (and more affordable), it's tempting to buy the largest screen that will fit on your wall.

But SHOULD you?

In our latest episode of *What's on the Horizon*, Chris talks about how to choose the right TV size for your space. And the answer might surprise you!

A giant screen can be incredible in a dedicated home theater, but your living room, bedroom, or other entertainment space might call for something different.

And then there's the OTHER problem...

You just spent a bunch of money on a gorgeous new TV, but you still can't understand what anyone is SAYING. 😩

Chris explains why great sound is just as important as a great picture, and why adding a soundbar or dedicated speakers can make such a difference.

Because nobody wants to spend movie night turning the volume UP for conversations and DOWN for explosions.

Now we're curious: What's the biggest TV you'd put in your living room?

11/03/2026

There are two types of people shopping for a new TV.

Person #1: "I think a 65-inch TV would be plenty."

Person #2: "I measured the wall. We can fit a 98."

And suddenly, it's a negotiation.

But here's the question: SHOULD you buy the biggest TV that fits on the wall?

Sometimes, yes!

Other times, you're spending more money to make your room look like the electronics department at Costco.

Our latest blog explains why viewing distance matters more than wall size, when a better TV beats a bigger TV, and why that gorgeous wall of windows overlooking the lake might complicate your plans.

Plus, we'll tell you when we'd actually encourage you to go bigger.

Consistency makes a difference. From reliable audio and video quality to easy navigation, Netflix keeps the experience simple—and that’s why it remains a top pick.

Warning: Your guests may never want to leave. 😂🏡

Especially when the bonus room is THIS comfortable.

For this installation, we helped create an entertainment space that gives guests all the comforts of home, without making them figure out how to operate a complicated TV system.

📺 A television on an articulating wall mount, so it can be positioned for comfortable viewing.

🔊 A custom soundbar designed to perfectly match the width of the TV.

🎮 Game console connections for a little friendly competition.

And our favorite part? A simple smart remote that lets guests control everything with the press of a button.

No juggling three remotes. No calling the homeowner to ask how to change inputs. No instruction manual required.

Just great entertainment that's easy to enjoy.

Because when you invite people into your home, you want them to feel welcome. And great technology should make that experience even better.

Now we're curious...would your guests use this space for movie night or game night?

How hard can it be to hang a TV on the wall? 🤷‍♂️📺

Famous last words. 😂

You've got a drill, a level, a stud finder, and a YouTube tutorial. What could possibly go wrong?

Well... that depends on your wall.

In our latest episode of What's on the Horizon, Chris tackles a question we hear pretty often: Should you mount your TV yourself or hire a professional?

And his answer might surprise you. Sometimes DIY is absolutely the way to go!

But when you're dealing with stone fireplaces, older homes, tricky wall construction, hidden wiring, or a TV that needs to fit PERFECTLY into a specific space, things can get complicated pretty quickly.

Chris even shares a story about mounting a TV above his own fireplace, where getting the television AND soundbar perfectly centered required some pretty precise measurements.

Because nothing will bother you quite like sitting on the couch and realizing your brand-new TV is just a LITTLE off-center. 😬

🎥 Watch the latest What's on the Horizon to hear Chris explain when DIY makes sense and when calling a professional might save you a whole lot of frustration. Link is in the Comments!

Be honest... are you Team DIY or Team Call Someone Who Knows What They're Doing?

Your car needs oil changes.

Your furnace needs maintenance.

Your smart home needs... WHAT?!

Didn't you already pay good money to have all that technology installed?

Why on earth would you need to maintain it?

Fair question.

Here's the thing: Your smart home is a lot more like your smartphone than your toaster.

Software updates happen. Apps change. Networks have issues. And occasionally, technology decides it doesn't want to cooperate.

The good news? Sometimes we can fix a problem before you even know something was wrong.

Our latest blog tackles a question we think homeowners should absolutely ask:

Why Would I Pay for Smart Home Maintenance?

And no, the answer isn't that everyone needs another monthly subscription.

From concept to reality. Here's some initial photos of a dedicated theater room project we recently completed. This 24' x 18' x 10' space was thoughtfully designed to comfortably seat 15 people, utilize a 'wall to wall' screen (190" diagonal), and integrate acoustical elements into the design with linear lighting for accent and function.

There will be more about this project in the coming weeks, but we got too excited to not share a bit early, as we're over the moon with how everything turned out.

Special thanks to Gwen Torfin with the The Hearth Room for helping with the selections and design.
