About Our Company

Our Work

When we first installed the A/V system in 2012, prior to the flood, it was a complete retrofit from top to bottom. After the flooding, we were able to open up the walls, it was almost an easier installation. We needed to install a completely new system, and decided to upgrade the home to an ELAN gMV1616 UltraMatrix Switcher with an ELAN gSC10 System Controller.

Since this home was flooded, we automated the water valves, now if the water or irrigation alarm goes off, it automatically shuts the water off in the house. Due to our experience with clients having their properties flooded, we have integrated many water bugs into our projects. For us, alarms are not just about notifying you that someone broke into your window, but also revolve around pipes leaking, smoke detectors, gas leaks, and more. We have had a few properties where the water bug has been triggered, and the valve shut off, this saved the home from major damages.

The full system includes a 47-zone alarm system, 16 zones of audio, 10 zones of video, 2 forced air zones, 6 zones of radiant heat, a central lite lighting system with more than 80 switches, and 11 zones of irrigation control all through ELAN. Though the system is robust, the ELAN UltraMatrix Switcher simplified the connection between each system, increasing flexibility and shortening the installation process.

To operate each space, the homeowner can simply use the ELAN remote controls, in-wall touch panels or the ELAN Mobile App on a smartphone or tablet.



"The owner has two sons and a daughter under the age of 12, they all used the technology and the ELAN system quite proficiently without any explanation; they just picked it up on their own."

- Auld, Mike

Through the ELAN Mobile App, the homeowner can check on and monitor each home remotely. Additionally, if the homeowner has guests visiting his other properties, he can unlock the doors through automated door locks with just the push of a button. Taking remote monitoring even further, Mike Auld and his team are currently upgrading keypads and touch panels in the home to begin installing the new ELAN Intercom.

The family is so impressed with ELAN, they asked Mike Auld and his team to outfit their fourth home in Canmore, Alberta with a similar system.

What Our Clients Say


"We have been fortunate to have Mike Auld as our audio/video system tech for the last 10 years. We did not build our house, so Mike had to come in and work with the existing and very complicated system. He knew exactly what to do and has kept us up and running, sometimes making house calls at odd hours and sometimes being able to troubleshoot remotely. Thank you Mike for all your expertise and friendly service. We are grateful for all your help over the years. It's nice to be able to trust that you have our best interests at heart."

- Murray, Paul & Kim

"We used Mike Auld at On Point Automation when we built our dream home in 2020. Mike was very professional; always courteous and prompt in our interactions.

Post completion of the project, Mike has continued to provide exceptional service quality on any issues that have arisen. We were very fortunate to work with Mike on our home build."

- Gould, John

"Mike and his team installed an Elan system in my house which allowed us full control and interaction between multiple systems from security, lighting, cameras, and audio/video. Mike made sure the system installation went seamlessly and he was always available if we have any questions. I would highly recommend Mike and his entire team."

- Geremia, Rob

"I purchased an Elan System through Mike Auld roughly 6 years ago after moving to my brand new home. It is a fully integrated audio-video system. The real advantage is that it allows for simple and consistent control of all my TV's audio rooms. Mike's exceptional technological expertise is unparalleled. He provides the utmost customer service whether remotely or in person, and is always on hand to help with any problems that may arise. I highly recommend this system and his company to anyone looking for a comprehensive integrated audio-video system."

- Douglas, Mary

"Mike stepped in to help us out without ever having been part of your original project scope. He helped solve a number of challenges and was able to enhance and improve our home automation and entertainment systems in a number of areas - all while having to work with a system that was not well thought out and set up by someone else in the first place. There have been many times where I have called Mike late on a Friday having just arrived at our property for the weekend only to find something I needed help with. To this day Mike continues to be there to support and help us find solutions. So grateful to have met Mike and have him helping us - would highly recommend visiting with him before starting your next project."

- Marchant, Jeff

"Mike Auld installed our entertainment system throughout the house nearly twenty years ago and we have been happy with his advice and support ever since. We have remodelled parts of the system, improved parts and replaced parts over the years. We have discussed changes over the years and Mike has advised us of alternatives of changing this way or of improving that way or of upgrading the whole system to new technology. We are pleased to continue to have Mike's skills and advice on our entertainment system technology to this day."

- Del, Neil & Merla

"Truly a special type of service. Mike is patient and willing to explore options and above all knows what he is doing. His reliable and efficient work makes him our go-to for all things IT and electrical."

- Patterson, Angela & Phil
