AUDIO-VISUAL SOLUTIONS
Running an industrial facility comes with enough challenges—communication shouldn’t be one of them. A reliable warehouse paging system keeps teams informed, allowing for quick response times and improved daily operations. Whether you’re upgrading an outdated system or installing a new one, knowing what to consider can make implementation seamless and effective.
Installing a paging system in your facility? Here’s what to expect.
Haverford Systems’ certified AV technicians will first review your facility space drawings, including floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, and elevations to make an informed recommendation. The main considerations are: types of paging speakers, the head-end system and how you will be using the system.
From there, our team will handle everything—from selecting the best technology for your space to in-house testing to ensure flawless performance. Once ready, our experienced technicians will install the system with minimal disruption to your operations.
Choose the right paging features for your facility.
Your facility’s workflow is unique, and your paging system should be too. Think about what features you will need to keep your team connected and productive.
- Break & Shift Tones – Use simple tones to signal shift changes and break times, keeping operations on schedule.
- Announcements – Make clear, real-time announcements from any connected device through VoIP integration.
- Background Music – Play ambient music to create a more comfortable work environment in select areas.
- Emergency Notifications – Broadcast pre-recorded safety alerts to ensure rapid response during critical situations.
Are high ceilings a concern for paging speakers?
No, paging speakers are designed to be strategically placed for optimal sound coverage without obstructing workflow or equipment. In warehouses with high ceilings, we use specialized mounting solutions such as beam clamps, pendant speakers, or wall-mounted horns to ensure clear audio distribution while keeping pathways clear. Our team assesses your space to recommend the best placement, network requirement, and rack location for maximum effectiveness without interfering with daily operations.
Set up custom paging zones for your warehouse.
Most paging systems include zones for different volume levels, as well as different messaging for various building areas. The centralized head-end system can even connect to additional locations so that paging can happen over the network to a multi-building campus.
Control your paging system anytime, anywhere with remote access.
With mass notification software like Informacast, your paging system can be accessed from anywhere and can even be integrated with Microsoft Teams. This means emergency notifications can be sent through the site-wide speaker system while also pushing alerts to computers, interrupting virtual meetings, and appearing on digital displays. It can also notify emergency responders and instantly connect decision-makers, ensuring fast and effective communication in any situation.
Stay connected even during power outages.
Many industrial paging systems are designed with backup power capabilities, such as battery backups or integration with emergency generators. This ensures that the system remains operational even during power outages, allowing critical messages to be broadcast in any situation.
How will our facility staff learn to use the system?
A paging system is only effective if your team knows how to use it. Our experts provide hands-on training to ensure your staff understands all its features—from making announcements to activating emergency alerts. We’re here to support you every step of the way.
