Richard Soloway, Chairman and President of NAPCO, commented, "The Company's popular Gemini Security System is consistently chosen because of its ease of use, reliability, and built-in business management features, such as open/close reporting, time scheduled auto-arming and maintenance-free operation. Another top feature is that today, any of NAPCO's Gemini Systems can be securely controlled via a free smart phone app (Droid™ or Apple®) or online, for 24/7 security management, from anywhere across the globe."
