Operating hand-in-hand with security, modern automation systems leave no room for second-guessing. Lighting and climate control adjust automatically, doors and access points secure themselves and alerts from surveillance networks instantly detect and respond to risks. NorthEastern Automated Technologies, Inc. has been shaping this reality for decades. Established in 1997 when home automation was still in its infancy, the company has evolved into a trusted provider of automation and security solutions across residential and commercial settings. Its growth has been guided by the professional experience of President Steve Savage, a retired law enforcement officer who considers security as the backbone of automation systems. “We don’t chase profits; we build trust,” says Savage. “Our mission is to deliver uncompromising security, safety and convenience, ensuring people feel protected and confident in the spaces they live, work and gather.” NorthEastern Automated’s specialization extends to the design, sale and installation of audio, video and control systems capable of meeting the most stringent security standards. A prime example is the annual Bloomsburg Fair—the largest agricultural fair in Pennsylvania—which attracts nearly 400,000 visitors over the course of a week. Working alongside the Department of Homeland Security, NorthEastern Automated creates a safe environment for attendees by combining automation with a robust security infrastructure. Its work demonstrates that automation delivers real impact when it makes everyday life easier for users. As a Control4 authorized pro integrator, it goes the extra mile to bring clients’ visions to life. With the support of a custom-built computer design system, its solutions are precisely tailored to each client’s needs. The team prioritizes customer experience in every phase—design, build and installation. For many clients, the most pressing challenge lies in effectively managing multiple devices. Instead of piling apps and systems on top of each other, it empowers them with the highly efficient and intuitive Control4 app. The result is a streamlined and reliable user experience. Driveway notification systems, for instance, do more than switch on lights—they provide layered security by distinguishing between arriving and departing vehicles. Fire alarm integration ensures that, in the event of an emergency, HVAC systems shut down promptly to prevent flames from spreading. The exit pathways are automatically lit to guide occupants to safety. Custom notifications provide an additional layer of assurance, alerting parents when their child arrives home or deterring intruders who attempt to enter the premises.
