Just back from a quick trip to AvantGuard’s new corporate headquarters and central station facility to check on the renovations that are ongoing. As of tonight new carpeting has been installed in the operating areas of the facility. Also, new tile has been installed in the server rooms and break room areas. Glass work, trim, and touch up work will be starting soon.

AvantGuard will be moving in to the new facility later this summer. The new facility will be UL UUFX and 2050 listed and allow AvantGuard with room to expand as technologies develop.

Pictures of the renovations and construction under way are available on AvantGuard’s Facebook page at: http://www.facebook.com/pages/AvantGuard-Monitoring-Centers/232693466022?v=photos#!/album.php?aid=223706&id=232693466022&ref=pb

AvantGuard would like to thank two of our outstanding operators for helping prevent an attempted burglary of a home.  Kristen Purchase, a Central Station Operator in our Ogden Utah central station, and Kathleen Dawson, an operator in our Tacoma Washington central station both handled a burglar alarm from a residence in Tacoma Washinton. Their quick response to the alarm resulted in the attempted break in being foiled! Great job!
