The Sound Store designs and installs commercial AV systems for Auckland businesses, from single-room boardroom upgrades to multi-floor integrated systems for large commercial developments. We bring the same precision and care to every commercial project that we bring to our residential installations.

Why The Sound Store for Commercial Projects?

Commercial AV projects require a different discipline from residential work. Timelines are tighter, the environment is often occupied during installation, and the consequences of a system failure are more significant. Our commercial team is experienced in working with project managers, head contractors, and interior designers to deliver systems on time and within budget, with minimal disruption to day-to-day operations.

  • Project management: We assign a dedicated project manager to every commercial installation to ensure clear communication and on-time delivery.
  • After-sales support: Commercial clients receive a dedicated support contact and priority response for any service requirements after installation.
  • Scalable solutions: We design systems with future growth in mind. Adding rooms, floors or venues to your system should be straightforward, not a complete reinstallation.
  • Brand-aligned AV: Your AV environment is an extension of your brand. We design systems that reflect the quality and character of your business.

Frequently Asked Questions - Commercial AV

Do you handle the full AV installation or just supply equipment?

We handle everything - design, supply, installation, configuration, testing, and ongoing support. We don't just supply boxes. Every commercial project is delivered as a complete, functioning system with documentation, staff training, and a dedicated after-sales contact.


Can you work within an existing fit-out or do you need to start from scratch?

We regularly work within existing fit-outs and occupied spaces. We're experienced in working around building operations, other trades, and tight programme schedules. Our team will assess the existing infrastructure and design the most cost-effective upgrade path.


How do you handle ongoing support for commercial clients?

Commercial clients receive a service agreement option providing priority response times, remote monitoring, and scheduled maintenance. We also offer on-call support for urgent issues. We'll discuss support options as part of the project scoping process.


Do you install AV systems for hospitality venues?

Yes - hospitality is one of our strongest sectors. We've installed background music, video systems, outdoor audio, digital signage and access control for restaurants, bars, cafés, and hotel properties across Auckland. We understand the unique demands of hospitality environments and design systems that are easy for staff to operate and built to perform in high-traffic conditions.
