St. Louis metro building technology

Access, cameras, network and AV — one team, one design, one phone number.

We design and install them together for apartment communities, property managers and commercial buildings, so nothing breaks at the hand-offs.

Why we exist

Building technology, integrated by people who care about how it works.

The video wall in a sports bar isn't useful without the audio system, the network behind it, and someone who can fix it on a Saturday. The mobile credentials at an apartment building are only as good as the intercom they're paired with. Most building-technology projects fail because no single vendor owns the integration between systems.

We do. Alpheento is a Maryville, Illinois-based technology integrator serving the St. Louis metro, actively expanding across the US. We handle eight solution categories — access control, smart apartments, video surveillance, networking, structured cabling, video intercom and package management, building automation, and AV — as one integrated practice.

You get one project lead, who is an owner, and one phone number when something needs fixing. The company that designed your system is the one that installed it and supports it.

Solutions

Eight integrated solutions that work together.

Most projects use three or more of the solutions below. One team designs, installs and supports all of them, so they work together from day one.

01

Access Control Systems

Mobile + physical credentials, keyless entry, audit trails, and tenant management at any scale. Salto Space, Salto KS, Allegion Zentra, and UniFi Access.

Explore Access Control
02

Smart Apartment Solutions

Resident-app access, smart thermostats, lighting, and intercoms — packaged as a marketable amenity that can support higher rents and reduce tickets.

Explore Smart Apartments
03

Video Surveillance & Cameras

IP cameras, NVR or cloud recording, and view-anywhere apps — integrated with door events so a badge swipe pulls the matching clip in seconds.

Explore Surveillance
04

Networking & Enterprise WiFi

Business-grade WiFi, switching, and cloud-managed networks. Ubiquiti UniFi end-to-end. Properly tuned, properly segmented.

Explore Networking
05

Structured Cabling

Cat6/6A, fiber backbone, properly terminated and labeled. PoE+ at every drop where AV, cameras, or access readers live.

Explore Cabling
06

Video Intercom & Package

Video intercoms at the front door (ButterflyMX, Comelit) and package locker integration that solves the missed-delivery problem at the source.

Explore Video Intercom & Package
07

Building Automation

Smart thermostats, occupancy sensors, lighting control, HVAC integration. Savings on operating costs vary by building, baseline, and the systems controlled.

Explore Automation
08

Audio/Video & Digital Signage

Conference rooms, sports-bar video walls, multi-zone audio, and Watchfire LED signage — controlled from one tablet with RTI or Q-SYS.

Explore AV
How we work

Predictable. On-budget. On-time.

A four-step process that makes integration projects feel less like construction and more like an engagement. One team, one project lead, transparent line items from day one.

01
ConsultWe walk the space, ask what you're trying to fix, and tell you what's possible.
02
DesignYou get a line-item design with three options (Good / Better / Best), yours to keep, and answers to the questions you didn't know to ask.
03
InstallOur team installs and commissions. You get one project lead, not five subcontractors.
04
SupportWe stay on call for the systems we install. Service agreements can include response-time commitments and remote diagnostics.

Frequently asked

Answers before you ask.

Alpheento provides access control, smart apartment technology, video surveillance, networking and enterprise WiFi, structured cabling, building automation, video intercom and package management, audio/video systems, and ongoing support for the systems we install. Most projects combine three or more of these.

We're headquartered in Maryville, Illinois, and serve the St. Louis metro on both sides of the river: Madison, St. Clair and Monroe counties in the Metro East, plus St. Louis City, St. Louis County, St. Charles County and Jefferson County in Missouri. Larger projects beyond the metro are taken on by arrangement.

We install Salto (Space and KS), Allegion (Schlage and Zentra), Alarm.com Smart Properties, ButterflyMX, Comelit, Livly, Ubiquiti UniFi, RTI, WyreStorm, Q-SYS/QSC, Bluesound, and Watchfire LED. The full list is in the Partners section above. We can also work with other platforms on request.

Yes. Multifamily is a core focus for us. We install smart-apartment platforms, mobile-credential access, ButterflyMX video intercoms, building WiFi, smart thermostats, package management, and resident-facing apps for apartment communities across the St. Louis metro.

Yes, when the existing system is worth keeping. After a one-time on-site assessment, we quote a support scope for it: targeted fixes, upgrades, or full integration into a new platform.

Every project starts with a free on-site walk-through. We then send a line-item design with three options (Good / Better / Best) that is yours to keep. Cost depends mostly on door and unit count, the number of entries, existing wiring, retrofit versus new build, platform subscription fees and how much integration is involved. Once you choose one of the three options, any change in scope or cost is approved by you in writing before we do the work. We respond within 24 hours.
