Sensicast is the very best painting and exhibit case alarm system available. Other systems may be more suitable if you only intend to alarm one or two cases or paintings but if you plan to alarm more than that, or the objects you need to protect are of extreme value and importance, then Sensicast is for you.
By special arrangement with Sensicast we provide Sensicast systems to our clients under the Affinity Program. If you are not eligible for the Affinity Program we will refer you to someone who can help you. We sell to clients at a very deep discount, often just a two percent over dealer cost.
For information on Sensicast go to the Sensicast Affinity Program’s Sensicast website. Note that some of the features of this site will not be available to you and will indicate “Under Construction”. These are services available only to clients who buy through the program but the site will give you a good overview of the product so you can decide if it is right for you.
Pricing: The cost of a system and its components will depend upon the quantity of transmitters that you buy, the quantity of network nodes that you buy, etc. therefore we can’t post a cost that will be applicable to everyone. The way the system works is that you work with us and we design a system for you. We determine the number of components of each type you need. Once we know that number we can order them in quantity from Sensicast at the dealer price and sell them to you about 2% over our cost to cover our handling and insurance. The more we buy, the more discount we receive.
You can then use our video training and install the system yourself if you have an in house technician or you can buy installation from us--or anyone. Installation is a straightforward task similar to adding a router to a network. You can program the system yourself or we will do this for you for a fee. We recommend letting us do this part.
You can train your curators yourself using our video support or you can contract with us to train them on how to install a transmitter on a picture or display case, etc. and how to turn them on and off.
Regardless of how you proceed, you save a lot of money over buying from a local dealer. We can explain why this is the case in more detail over the phone and give you a better idea of the cost of our various services plus the product when you call but basically dealers mark up every components 40% then charge you for installation even though you never let an installer install something on a valuable painting This is done by your curatorial staff.
We added Sensicast to our Affinity Program because it is very expensive and our clients can’t afford it but with this program it is truly affordable. We only add best-in-their-class products to our Affinity Program.

Sensicast Unlimited Visions Cameras RoomFence Storm Predator Software
Scroll down product you are looking for.
Unlimited Visions makes high resolution analog cameras in architecturally pleasing enclosures in both dome and bullet shapes. Domed cameras are about 3” in diameter and the tube cameras are about 2” round and less than 4” long. Images are in full color and about 570 lines of resolution depending upon the model. Some are indoor and others are indoor/outdoor. They also make a small extremely low light level camera that almost sees in total darkness and certainly will see clearly in any light level you can use legally in a gallery.
We carry these under the Affinity Program because when we design many museums they defer purchase of some of their cameras and have us design hook-ups only. Eventually they need to buy cameras for the hook-ups.
If you are an Affinity Program member you can buy from us just above our cost at a tremendous saving.
Here is how it works: Go to the Unlimited Visions website and check out the product line. Call us if you need advice on which camera is best for you or works with your existing power supplies. DO NOT CALL UNLIMITED VISIONS or you will become their customer and will be ineligible for this discount. They will refer you to a dealer and then we can’t get involved. Place your order with us and pay only a few percent over our cost plus shipping instead of a 40 to 80% mark-up. You install the cameras yourself or have a local installer or electrical contractor install them. Installation is as easy as connecting your stereo components.
By the way, if you take one of these apart you will see name brand components. Unlimited Visions is an OEM manufacturer who makes products for some of the best known camera companies that you pay twice as much for. Bonus news: The factory in Korea is moving to Chicago so it will soon be “Made in America”.
Visit the Unlimited Visions website. Then call us and we will get a deeply discounted price for Affinity members on the products you want.
