I had and continue to have an amazing experience with Alef Audio Video. The team is extremely knowledgeable, efficient and great to work with. I highly recommend hiring them for audio video projects, and any help you may need setting up smart home devices. Their work has far exceeded my expectations. I’ll continue using them for any future projects and I will continue referring them to family and friends.

We had a nebulous project that required a lot of adaptability and working with us for scheduling and when to take care of things. The team was punctual, polite, considerate and had amazing domain expertise and willingness to help. They did camera set ups, network connectivity, television installation, and home theater work for us and we could not be happier with the quality of work they provided but also how kind they were at every single interaction we had. They stand by their work and are competitively priced.

Kjell is absolutely amazing! His work ethic and quality craftmanship are truly outstanding. He thinks deeply about each problem and designs creative solutions to overcome every obstacle. The 6-camera home security system he designed for me far exceeded my expectations and he also improved my overall network configuration, eliminated redundant wiring and organized my junction box like it's never been in 20 years. He provides an excellent service for a very fair price. Hire this pro and you won't be disappointed!!

I wanted to install PoE security cameras and doorbell at my home. Alef Audio Video accepted the challenge. Kjell is very professional and knows a lot about network wiring. I was keen on installing PoE devices but was going to abandon the project because of the lack of ethernet wiring options at the outdoor. Kjell found ways to efficiently install switches at my garage and attic and make the connections work. I also learnt a lot about network management. He made suggestions of installing wifi access points at new location so that I have better coverage.
