Services
The work we actually do.
Commercial and industrial access, video, and openings. Not a residential alarm kit with a new coat of paint.

Access control
Card readers, controllers, credentials, and door hardware that actually match the openings on site.

Pro-Watch systems
Honeywell Pro-Watch install, maintenance, and migrations from a contractor who actually works in the software.
Learn more

Video surveillance
IP cameras, PoE, and recording laid out for coverage you can actually use — not a wall of unused streams.
Learn more

Doors, gates & hangars
Vehicle gates, pedestrian doors, hangar openings, self-storage entries, and the hardware that makes them lock, unlock, and stay that way.
Learn more

Commercial & industrial
Offices, shops, warehouses, and industrial sites. Built for how the facility actually runs, not a residential kit scaled up.

Service & maintenance
Troubleshooting, repairs, and upgrades on systems we installed — and on a lot we did not.

Pro-Watch
We work in the software and in the field.
Crystal Clear Solutions has extensive experience with the Honeywell Pro-Watch suite. We install it, keep existing sites running, and help you move to something else when that is the honest answer.
Pro-Watch servicesHow a job runs.
01
Consult
Walk the site. Count the openings. Look at the network, the power, and how people actually move.
02
Design
Hardware, credentials, and recording that match the building — written down so the next person can follow it.
03
Install
Readers, locks, cameras, gates, and cabinets landed clean. Programmed, tested, and handed off.
04
Service
When a door fails or a recorder drops, you call the people who built it, not a ticket queue.
