The technology in a business either works quietly every day or costs you money in small, constant ways: meetings that start late, WiFi that drops at the register, cameras nobody can pull footage from. Regent5 designs and integrates commercial technology for offices, restaurants, hospitality, retail, and wellness spaces across San Francisco, the Peninsula, the North Bay, South Bay, and East Bay, Wine Country, and the Carmel and Monterey area: conference rooms, networking, security and access, lighting, audio video, and the electrical infrastructure underneath it all, engineered and serviced by one licensed team.
Commercial technology projects usually fragment across an electrician, a network vendor, an AV company, and a security installer, and when something fails, each points at the others while your business absorbs the downtime. Regent5 holds both C10 electrical and C7 low voltage licenses, so the power, the wiring, the network, the AV, and the security are designed as one system, installed by one team, documented in one package, and serviced under one phone number. For a tenant improvement or a new buildout, that also means the electrical rough-in and the technology infrastructure are coordinated from the first drawing instead of discovered against each other in the field.


The most common failure in business AV is not equipment, it is adoption: a room so complicated that people book somewhere else. We design meeting spaces around one rule, which is that anyone in your company can start a hybrid meeting in seconds without training. Displays sized to the room, cameras that capture everyone at the table, microphones that let remote participants actually hear, and a control experience simple enough that it disappears. The system supports the conferencing platforms your team already works in, and because we document and remotely manage what we build, the room that works in the demo still works in month eighteen.
Every system in a modern business rides on the network: point of sale, cameras, phones, guest WiFi, conferencing, music. Regent5 engineers commercial networks on Cisco Meraki, Ruckus, and UniFi hardware, with a hardwired backbone, access points placed by coverage design rather than guesswork, and network segmentation that keeps guest traffic, payment systems, and back office properly separated. The result is WiFi that holds up on a full Friday night and infrastructure that your next technology decision can build on instead of working around.


Business security has to answer two questions: can you see what happened, and can you control who gets in. We design Verkada camera systems whose footage is actually findable when you need it, searchable by person or event rather than scrubbed through by hand, with cloud management that lets an owner check any location from a phone. Entry control ranges from staff door access to ButterflyMX systems for multi tenant buildings. And because the same team runs your network, the cameras stay online, recording, and current, instead of becoming the dusty DVR in the closet that failed the one night it mattered.
In restaurants, hospitality, retail, and wellness spaces, the environment is part of the product. Lutron lighting scenes shift the room from lunch service to evening without a manager touching a dimmer, distributed audio keeps music consistent at the right level in every zone, and displays carry menus or content that staff can update without calling anyone. Everything is controlled from interfaces simple enough for any shift to run, scheduled so the space opens itself correctly every morning. Atmosphere becomes an operations feature instead of a daily chore.

Yes, and this is where holding both C10 electrical and C7 low voltage licenses matters most. The electrical rough-in, structured cabling, network, AV, and security are coordinated as one design from the first drawing, working directly with your general contractor and architect, so the technology never becomes the trade holding up the schedule.
Almost always the same three things: audio designed for the room instead of a speakerphone in the middle of the table, a camera that captures the people rather than the wall, and a control experience simple enough that nobody needs training. We design rooms around adoption first, then verify them in real hybrid meetings before handoff.
Yes. Systems built on cloud managed platforms such as Cisco Meraki and Verkada are designed to be monitored and managed centrally, so an owner or operations lead can see every location from one dashboard, and our remote management handles most issues without a site visit to any of them.
Cloud managed systems such as Verkada store and index footage off site, make it searchable, and are accessible from anywhere, which suits owners who are not always on premises. Local recording keeps footage in the building. The right answer depends on your compliance needs, bandwidth, and how you actually use footage, and we design both.
Service plan members are monitored remotely, so many failures are corrected before they interrupt operations. When something does surface, support starts remotely, where most issues resolve fastest, and escalates to a priority site visit when hands are needed. Business continuity is the design goal of the whole service model.
