Following a catered reception, the Assemblywoman, Mayor, and Chief of Police gave speeches commending Valley Alarm for the renovation of the historic San Fernando Elks Hall building and the stunning blend of historic and contemporary design. They also praised the company’s commitment to the community. Valley Alarm’s CEO, Robert Michel, spoke of the company’s commitment to the San Fernando community and to its own employees through a culture of service and personal and professional growth.

Valley Alarm’s renovation of the historic 1931 building was a complete building makeover, including a new roof, HVAC systems, electrical and plumbing renovation, advanced lighting, paint inside and out, refinishing of all natural historic wood, a new decorating scheme, and last but not least, a change of use from banquet hall to office building. A main theme of the renovation was the preservation of the beautiful, historic character of the building, while incorporating contemporary systems and design elements.
