What We do

What We do

MediaMerge provides AVL systems for new construction and renovation projects. We can work directly with your church or as a sub-contractor. Technical renovation projects that do not involve major construction are often completed turn-key with MediaMerge serving as general contractor.

Design - We believe that good design is good stewardship, and it ultimately pays for itself. It’s easy to connect two devices and get a signal. The real challenge lies in identifying needs, anticipating pitfalls, providing clear communication and overcoming architectural limitations. That’s where we live.

Installation - Safety is the first concern when it comes to installation. Whether it’s hanging equipment overhead or pulling wire, our installers follow code to the letter. All wiring is meticulously managed and documented for future serviceability. We can’t wait to see the smile on your face when you see your racks for the first time.

Training & Support - Our official policy on training is that we don’t have one. If your team can’t use our technology then we have failed. Whether it’s one short training session or ten, we guarantee that your team will get the training and support they need.

Design Development - Your goals are translated to conceptual designs including preliminary budgets

Drawings & Documentation - The design is formalized with drawings and schematics

Installation - Systems are built, tested and installed according to the documentation and drawings

See Your Project Before Installation Begins

We use the latest 3D modeling technology to work out concepts in the virtual realm long before construction begins. This technology enables us to show you a wide range of options to solve each design challenge.

CU5 Optimized

Systems Built for Growth

You don't invest in new technology every year, and we get that. Our creative background in a broad range of projects helps to design a turn-key AVL system that can be rolled out all at once or in phases depending on your needs.

Foundry

Engineered for You

Selling you a system without taking into full consideration the people who will use the technology day-in and day-out is not good stewardship. We focus on finding the right equipment to meet your needs and experience level. Then we engineer the systems to be use-able by your team.
