Now they are pleased to announce the launch of their telephone entry concept video. Following feedback from trade customers, Telguard were made aware of a common issue. When installers were talking to a prospective customer about a new electric gate installation and the hundreds of options available to them, most buyers very quickly showed signs of glazing over with data-overload and too much choice. Now there’s a solution to recapture their interest: show them the Telguard video! The video has been designed for use as a sales aid, for installers to show how today’s communication and control solutions are beneficial, flexible and suited to modern day life. It also highlights that Telguard manufactures simple to use and easy to install products that are backed up by support that is second-to- none in the industry. The diverse range of products offered by Telguard ensures there’s a model to help installers sell their next system, offering a customised solution with features that make life easier and keeps owners informed. For instance, when utilising the text alert facility, even breakdowns could automatically notify up to 10 responsible persons stored in the proprietary software.
