“🏌️ Apple Valley Golf Course is a scenic destination for golfers and event-goers in Maine. Known for its sweeping fairways, beautiful barn, and welcoming staff, the course runs like clockwork on the surface. But behind the scenes, outdated surveillance tech created serious blind spots. That’s when they called Ekim IT Solutions.“

The Problem

Despite their stunning landscape and great reputation, Apple Valley Golf Course lacked proper visibility where it mattered most. The outdated camera system left gaps, frustrations, and security vulnerabilities.

Here’s what wasn’t working:

• 🎥 Spotty coverage from outdated cameras with limited angles and reach
• 👁️ Blind spots around key areas like the pro shop, barn, and open grounds
• 📱 No mobile access or live view for quick on-the-go monitoring
• 🧠 Lack of oversight for staff safety, guest experience, and theft prevention

“We needed to see what was happening in real time from anywhere.” Mr. Chad Hopkins

Without clear visibility, incidents went unchecked, response times lagged, and their team couldn’t operate with full confidence.

What We Did

Ekim IT Solutions transformed Apple Valley’s outdated surveillance into a high-performance, fully connected security system, without disrupting the charm of the property.

Here’s what changed:

• 🛠️ Installed fully hardwired cameras across all critical areas: pro shop, barn, exterior grounds, and entrance
• 🎯 Mounted a Unifi PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) camera with 360° coverage and 300-yard zoom range from the barn’s peak
• 🌐 Embedded a live stream of the course directly on their website so management could monitor it in real time
• 🔭 Positioned cameras for maximum visibility, routed through clean conduit for reliability

“It’s like having eyes everywhere without being invasive.”

• 🧘 The team works confidently knowing incidents won’t be missed
• 💻 The course’s website now showcases a stunning 360° livestream of the grounds
