Sente Mortgage Surpasses 20,000 Home Loans – Company Points to Unmatched 5-Star Experience

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Sente Mortgage has helped over 20,000 families and individuals make their homeownership dreams a reality as of September 2020, the company announced today.

"We formed Sente as a different kind of mortgage company, committed to financial possibility," said Tom Rhodes, CEO of Sente Mortgage. "In our early days, we could have only dreamed of reaching a milestone like this. We've impacted more than 20,000 lives and families, but what's equally rewarding is that we've done it with the highest caliber of service."

Sente is an industry outlier with thousands of five-star reviews, across platforms, for the company and its branches. Rhodes attributes this level of feedback to Sente's purpose-driven culture based on core values and a teamwork mindset.

"We're deliberate in everything we do - from how we approach growth, to how we treat each other internally and the value we provide borrowers," said Rhodes. "We're honored and excited to continue supporting our clients in the many years to come."

The Austin-headquartered independent mortgage company has branches across the south-central region and is actively expanding across the country.

Velocity Credit Union Provides Employees Paid Time Off to Vote Early

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Velocity Credit Union understands the importance of voting. To remind its employees that their vote is their voice and to encourage them to use it, the financial institution has announced a company-wide perk: paid time off to vote.

Velocity is providing two paid hours during Texas' early voting period, Oct. 13-30, 2020, for employees to exercise their civic duty while remaining on the clock.

In addition, the credit union will award points to employees who vote that can be redeemed for merchandise, gift cards, additional time off and other work perks via the company's internal employee recognition and rewards program.

"During these unfamiliar times, Velocity's employees, as providers of an essential service, have taken on an unusual amount of change and disruption in order to continue providing the high-quality service that our members take for granted," said Velocity president and CEO Debbie Mitchell.

"We hope to make things a little easier for our staff by enabling them to vote early and avoid the potentially long lines and large crowds many expect on election day, November 3, and to reward them for exercising that right."

The move also means that Velocity branches will remain fully staffed on that potentially hectic day.

Velocity operates six branches and multiple ITM/ATMs in the Austin area.

About Velocity Credit Union:

Velocity Credit Union is one of the largest Austin-area credit unions with branches located in Austin, Round Rock and Cedar Park. Chartered in 1947, the institution serves a five county area, with a broad and diverse community membership.

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- The Independent Bankers Association of Texas (IBAT) is pleased to announce that Promontory MortgagePath, LLC (PMP) has been selected as the newest IBAT Endorsed Service Provider for its ability to deliver a tailored, modern and cost-effective set of mortgage solutions. PMP combines an intuitive, collaborative digital-mortgage platform with comprehensive fulfillment services, giving banks the cutting-edge technology and scalability required to compete in today's market.

Banks partnering with PMP determine their own product and loan pricing strategies while PMP handles the rest. With PMP, banks can field their own loan officers to co-pilot the application process and collaborate with their borrowers via PMP's proprietary point-of-sale, Borrower Wallet(r). PMP processes and underwrites each loan using client-provided business rules and closes in the bank's name.

"IBAT is thrilled to add Promontory MortgagePath to our roster of top-quality endorsed service providers," said Christopher Williston, IBAT president and CEO. "As our members know all too well, the financial services landscape is changing and that includes the need to provide an efficient and effective mortgage experience that community bank customers expect. We look forward to our new relationship and the value it will provide Texas community bankers."

This game-changing technology is required to help community banks retain and acquire customers who are increasingly demanding a digital experience. With the current challenges to in-person interactions magnified by the COVID-19 pandemic, the ability to transact digital mortgage services becomes even more critical to success.

In these early stages of economic recovery, the anticipated refinance, HELOC and first-time-homebuyer activity offers community banks an opportunity to acquire new mortgage customers. With PMP's solutions, banks benefit from increased efficiencies and a scalable business model while offering their customers an intuitive and modern digital-mortgage experience.

"For community banks, service is the big differentiator.

"Times like these underscore the value of a solution that blends great service with innovative technology," he added.

PMP's founder, former U.S. Comptroller of the Currency Gene Ludwig, has been committed to community- and regional banking for decades. He has channeled his expertise as a former federal regulator into creating companies and products to improve the competitive posture of community banks while retaining a focus on compliance, including Promontory Interfinancial Network (PIN) and Promontory Financial Group.

Ludwig brought this same dedication to innovation, service, risk management and compliance excellence to Promontory MortgagePath. Compliance is deeply ingrained in its technology development and at the forefront of its fulfillment solutions. Banks partnering with PMP will get a customized, data-driven solution that results in more-compliant loans.

Tim was born in Texas, he found Christine in Colorado and in 2012 they moved to Austin with their 2 sons. Austin Roofing and Construction started in their South Austin master bedroom in 2013. Tim comes from a construction background where Christine was trained in hospitality. Combining their training produced a company with strong professional knowledge delivered with world class customer service.

Tim & Christine found a passion in helping to house the homeless in Austin through a partnership with Community First! Village, a small-house community in East Austin, for the formerly homeless. They gave back over $35K in 2019, donating 11 metal roofs in the new construction phase which is building 300 more small houses for the future "formerly homeless" over the next few years.

"Helping some of our most vulnerable citizens create a new life with purpose and meaning makes our everyday work worthwhile," said Tim Bowen, President of Austin Roofing and Construction.

Kidventure to Open Texas Summer Programs

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- After much consultation with our health professionals including infectious disease doctors and pediatricians, with newly released Guidelines for Summer Camps from the Governor's Task Force, representatives from the CDC, and many families, Kidventure, one of the largest private summer camp organizations in Texas since 1994, has made the decision to open camp programs beginning June 1, 2020 at over 24 locations in Houston, Dallas, and Austin.

The decision involved a variety of questions and obvious concerns. Can we provide a program that will mitigate the spread of Covid-19? Do we have the infrastructure to provide for the guidelines set forth by the CDC and our State? Will camp provide for the greater good of our communities? And will camp, with all its new protocols and procedures actually be 'camp' for those that need it most?

Kidventure has operated summer camps in Texas since 1994. It uses the foundations of camp to help improve the lives of its campers, caring for the mental, social, and physical wellbeing of children.

Kidventure's President, Mike McDonell said, "Never has that need - camp - been more crucial for children than right now. We believe that camp affords children with a unique opportunity to grow in confidence, to provide for hope, to battle against fear, and thrive."

Kidventure will take 26 years of experience and combine that with guidelines and protocols designed to help slow the spread of Covid-19, create a camp physical environment that is cleaner, and will implement systems to keep small groups of campers as one, and limit the flow of larger groups together. In addition, Kidventure will prescreen all those entering campsites and plans to monitor the health and wellbeing of its campers and staff during the camp day.

McDonell added, "The guidelines are not designed to be fool-proof? But the mental health of our children and the economic viability of our families and communities is not either."

Together with health professionals, Kidventure will update guidelines and will make necessary changes when and where needed.

Camps Coordinator and Vice President, Michael Valka said, "We will do as we have always done, and work to do our best. We are certain your child's experience at camp will provide them with the opportunity to reunite with friends, to once again run free, and we are certain their time with us will be cause for happiness, joy, and fun."

Kidventure has created a comprehensive Summer Camp Handbook During COVID-19 that contains all the new guidelines recently presented by the State of Texas as well as many of their own.

Kidventure has also created information on its website to help assist parents and children with questions and information about Summer Day Camp 2020.

Capitol Fence Shares Public Safety Tips Around Automatic Gates

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Capitol Fence & Deck of Austin, Texas, learned there are an estimated 300 ER visits due to injuries from automated gates. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) notes that most serious injuries occur around public access gates found at an apartment building, condominiums, and gated communities. Electric gates installed in these places are often outdated and no longer meet current safety guidelines.

Austin Electric Gates Safety Tips

If a home has an automatic security gate in Austin, children and vulnerable adults should learn these safety tips:
* Avoid "pinch points." Never stick hands, arms, feet, legs, or the head through gate openings.
* Check that a nationally recognized laboratory tested the automated gate, typically the ETL or UL.
* Don't play on or around the automatic gate.
* Never walk on foot through an automated gate intended for vehicles only. Use the separate pedestrian entrance at all times.

Risks of Automated Gates

Automated gate systems are subject to few safeguards and restrictions. "Safety by design," the belief that something well designed and adequately assembled will be safe, is the default for electronic gates. The most significant risk comes from improper installation.

Correctly installed gates still have these common risks:
* Crushing: Gates close with an individual in their path
* Drawing in: Gates catch on clothing and pulls the individual into their path
* Entrapment: Gates trap the individual while opening or closing
* Hooking: A protruding part of the gate system catches on the individual or their clothing
* Impact: An individual struck while the gate is opening or closing. The individual moves out of the way before becoming entrapped
* Shearing: Gates damage a parallel object such as a wall; shearing incidents can derail a gate system

Automatic gate systems operate until the gates are either fully closed or fully open. The gates don't react to outside influences, which is where most of the danger arises.

Get a Professional to Install an Automatic Gate Safely

Although automatic gate systems in Austin residential homes are potentially dangerous when installed or misused, they're not unsafe overall. When used correctly and given appropriate care, automatic gates can be a useful and safe way to let people in and keep people out of housing development.

Hire professional Austin entry gate installers when you need repairs or a new gate. Although fly-by-night installation companies are cheap, they're also more dangerous.

When searching for an automatic fence gate, Austin residents should always look for a certified installer. Capitol Fence & Deck is certified to correctly and safely install your automated gate system and meets UL 325 standards.

About Capitol Fence & Deck

Capitol Fence and Deck has been providing the top-level design and functionality for residential fences since 1992 in Austin, Texas. Delivering and installing custom wood, plank, chain link, privacy, wrought iron, and many other types of fences along with walk gates, entry gates, handrails, and much more, there are no other fence contractors throughout the Greater Austin Area that can match our selection and customer service.

360 Towing Solutions Austin Offers a Simple Solution for Overheating Trucks On the Road

They will also get the solution faster and don't have to wait on the roadside too long only for waiting for backup from the headquarters or someone who passes the road. The company understands that drivers have to face rush hour, traffic, road construction, and many others that make them stressed and under pressure.

Mold Inspection Sciences Texas and Blackmon Mooring and BMS CAT Collaborations Deliver New Mold Response Efficiencies

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- "The Secret Life of Mold," a podcast released by Mold Inspection Sciences Texas, recently sat down with Robby Jackson, general manager of Blackmon Mooring & BMS CAT Austin, to discuss the solution for a more efficient response to mold.

"Mold remediation is the process of treating mold-contaminated areas, effectively stopping, reducing, and repairing the growth of mold," said Jackson. "Mold needs warmth, moisture, and food. Anytime there is a water loss, it needs to be dealt with immediately. It only takes 48 to 72 hours for mold to become present."

"Not enough people know that mold assessments and remediation are two different processes that should be kept separate and professionally handled," he said. "However, when used in a collaborative effort, they can help solve a mold issue much more comprehensively."

So what makes this relationship so much more efficient? According to Jackson, it's the checks and balances, the open lines of communication, and having that unique detection expertise available while the restoration is in process.

"During mold inspections valuable data is collected, so assessment and remediation can successfully work together," says guest co-host and Mold Inspection Sciences Texas Chief Operating Officer Mike Marshall. "Investigating, collecting samples, and laboratory testing is the only way to know for sure what type of mold is present, how much mold is present, and how it may be impacting the indoor environment."

"That is how we know for sure that we are properly containing, cleaning, and restoring impacted areas," Jackson adds. "Without a scope of work, we are left to assumptions."

"That open line of communication with a consultant and a partner like Mold Inspection Sciences Texas is critical in that type of transition, if necessary. And we've done that on quite a few occasions with unbelievable success."

INDOOR HARVEST CORP. Announces 2020 New Outlook and Ventures / Acquisitions Pending

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Indoor Harvest Corp. (OTC: INQD) announced today the development of the 2020 New Outlook Plan along with impending initial ventures/agreements validating Indoor's approach to leverage a variety of factors making Indoor an attractive venture, merger, technology, partner through its public company platform.

The Company seeks to market its position in the capital market as a publicly trading company, with established auditing, transfer agent, management, market relationships, and shares that trade publicly, and other attributes, to have private companies with revenues, technology, contracts, assets, relationships and or other benefits, integrate with Indoor.

According to Tom Cook, CEO, "I stepped into the role of interim CEO this year and will continue short term as we move into 2020 launching discussions, communications, presentations and other efforts with companies involved with cannabis, hemp and CBD, pending the addition of a long-term CEO.

"We recognize two powerful points in our New Outlook: one, the industry, namely cannabis, CBD and hemp is very attractive to funds, brokers and investors, with political or regulatory shifts in favor of cannabis potentially creating a wave in increased valuations and deals; also, being a public company, we offer a platform for private companies to merge, exchange securities or the like, venturing with us, a reporting publicly traded company."

As a first material move, the Company has restructured and cut certain costs, and advanced different efforts to undertake deals with existing businesses in the "space," with synergistic aspects. Discussions and due diligence are underway. Management forecasts an announcement regarding a targeted business soon, December, 2019. The Company is regularly being approached by individuals and firms seeking to offer an acquisition to add to the Company. The Company is close to an announcement. As part of the 2020 expansion plans the Company has cut a variety of costs and taken strategic steps like incorporation into the platform of an international auditing firm offering services in the U.S and Asia, to be principal auditor.

About Indoor Harvest:

Indoor Harvest, through its brand name Indoor Harvest(R), is focused on leveraging our new 2020 New Outlook Plan, incorporating mergers and acquisitions, and ventures, as part of an M&A/vertical integration strategy, along with pursuing our technology and planning, we developed on Aeroponic Cultivation technology.

Capitol Fence Shares Popular Ways to Personalize Electric Gates

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Austin, Texas-based Capitol Fence, a leading fence and deck business representing the oldest fence contracting company serving Austin and the surrounding areas, recently shared with customers popular ways to personalize electric gates. Installing electric gates in Austin is growing increasingly popular with homeowners for the way in which they enhance a property's curb appeal and increase security.

"Automatic gates come in a variety of styles, materials and operating methods, all of which impact the final cost of the project - which is why we decided to share with our valued customers some popular ways to personalize them," says Mike Morrow, owner of Capitol Fence. "With electric gates, homeowners do not need to exit their vehicle when driving through them, as they're activated via remote control, voice, sensor or keypad, among other options."

"Beyond being faster to open compared to manual gates, automatic/electric types are easier to use because they do not demand any physical exertion to open them; what's more, they are more secure than manual gates as they're opened only by way of a designated code or device."

Starting with the process of installation for an automatic gate in Austin, Capitol Fence says installation varies significantly based on the type and style of gate, in addition to the system and material chosen. In most cases, the largest part of the installation cost comes down to the posts that hold the gate in place on either side. Sliding gates require tracks and specialized wheels, while swing gates require hinges. During this process, the mechanism needs to be set up and, in many cases, the sensor will need to be set and calibrated, and/or the remote set up so that the gate can operate.

"This can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on the size and style of the gate," adds Morrow.

Beyond installation, personalization is the matter of enhancement and improvement elements, including voice communication, in which drivers can communicate via intercom to the operator. Other ways to personalize a electric gates include keypads, which allow the user to input a code to open the gate; a card reader, representing a more secure way of granting access compared to keypads; and cameras, which can be added to the gate and enable an individual inside a residence to see who is approaching.

In addition to all these options, Capitol Fence also offers driveway and entry gates for Austin residents and commercial businesses that are custom-fabricated in our gate shop utilizing pre-galvanized steel, yielding gates that are powder-coated, not painted, so that proper fit and matching finish is realized.

"We offer our customers a vast array of styles and colors, along with unparalleled and maintenance/rust-free quality," concludes Morrow. "They can choose from economical basic styles or one-of-a-kind designs built to their specifications, providing their home with a distinctive aesthetic that sets it apart from pre-fabricated, 'off-the-shelf' gates."

Capitol Fence is located at 13724 Avenue K in Austin and can be reached by calling (512) 990-2530. For more information, and for a quote for electric gates, visit http://www.capitolfenceaustin.com/.

Global DMS Officially Introduces EVO-Residential(tm) Valuation Technology Platform

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Global DMS, a leading provider of cloud-based valuation management software, announced the launch of its new residential valuation solution at the MBA's Annual Convention & Expo being held at the Austin Convention Center from Oct. 27 - 30. Branded EVO-Residential(TM) (EVO-Res), the platform is primed to change the way lending and real estate entities process and manage valuations.

Global DMS engineered EVO-Res from the ground up with total automation of the entire valuation process in mind. The company believes everything begins with empowering organizations with an arsenal of incredibly easy-to-use tools that help transform their businesses into ultra-efficient, compliant, finely tuned operations. Using EVO-Res, the burdensome and costly valuation process the mortgage industry contends with can now be executed flawlessly through automation standing behind decades of integrated best practices.

"We put a great deal of thought into the design and underlying functionality of EVO-Res, collaborating with clients and diligently operating in an R&D mode for years," says Vladimir Bien-Aime, president and CEO of Global DMS. "EVO-Res provides organizations with an unrivaled technology foundation that ensures their unique valuation processes are completely automated from start to finish that was not possible until now. Empowering our clients with this technology advantage gives them an unparalleled ability to easily adapt to the ebbs and flows of the mortgage market and their unique valuation business needs."

EVO-Res offers state-of-the-art technological advances that allows users to work the way they need to work, which is very different than the platforms currently available in the market. EVO-Res is user role-based providing a customized experience for each user, complete with separate dashboards and task lists that help drive optimal performance by allowing them to focus on the most important tasks of the moment. EVO-Res users have the ability to configure every field, new fields can be added on the fly and are instantly reportable. Users can also create new review forms in minutes. Previously, these types of changes would require costly and time-consuming development intervention.

"From a return on invesTMent point of view, using a platform like EVO-Res just make sense," stated Jody Collup, COO at Global DMS. "The process efficiency advantages inherent in EVO-Res' infrastructure keeps every user on task, positively impacting your time to closing and effectively reducing your costs."

Notably, EVO-Res also works seamlessly with EVO-C, Global DMS' commercial lending valuation platform, thus allowing for a single-system experience to easily and effectively manage two distinctly different business lines.

Single Mom Heals Grief and Conquers Homelessness through Entrepreneurship

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Pamela Barnett has not had it easy. While she describes her childhood as happy, her family was poor and there were periods of homelessness. Later on in life, she pre-maturely gave birth to twins, Parker and Abigail, who did not survive. However, it was these life events, and others, that served to provide strength rather than defeat.

Today, she is the mother of two and a successful entrepreneur who is the author of several children's books, the founder of a tumbling gym, a Christian teacher and minister and, most recently, an app developer. Her latest app - tryitfreeapp.com - is set to launch on November 1.

"After the death of my twins, I left a bad marriage with my daughter and started over," she says. "At the time, I only had a high school education and no real way to provide for my daughter. For me, entrepreneurship was the answer."

TryitFreeapp.com will roll out in Texas, but Barnett has plans to take it nationwide. Like the name says, it's free and leads users to businesses that have free offers that include anything from a free facial or banana pudding to a martial arts class or pre-k reading class.

"It's a great way for businesses to connect with consumers," Barnett says. "And, it's also a great way for consumers to try before they buy."

There are many small businesses that don't have a big marketing budget and this app will offer visibility to tens of thousands of users at a glance. Barnett says the goal is to get 100,000 users on board in Austin and surrounding areas.

Business owners can apply to be included in this initial launch for free and links can be found for pre-orders for androids and iPhones here: http://www.tryitfreeapp.com/.

This app is affordable, targeted and highly effective marketing right in the hand of the consumer. Driving new customers is as easy as a few swipes on a phone.

About Pamela Barnett:

Barnett has two children - a 17-year old daughter, Katelynn, who attends the University of Mary Hardin Baylor and is on the acrobatics team; and her son, Jaxen, who is thriving in one of her private schools advancing three grade levels above his age in math. This is her second app - the first is an effective learning to read app - LearningtoReadwithAbbyGrace. Average just isn't in her vocabulary. She teaches her children and students, "Learn to multiply what you've been given."

HS Football Preview: The Top Kickers in Texas

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- The largest instructional kicking camp in the country, Kicking World, announced its 2019 list of the top kickers in Texas.

"The best HS kickers and punters are in the great state of Texas. With Kicking World based in Austin we're fortunate to work with them year-round. This year's list not only encompasses the best prep specialists in Texas, but some of the top kickers in the country," said Brent Grablachoff, owner of Kicking World.

:: Seniors (2020)

Jared Zirkel
Tivy HS - Kerrville, Texas
The cannon-legged Class of 2020 kicker is verbally committed to the University of Georgia on scholarship. It will be hard for the HS senior to improve on last year's wow season where he connected on a 59 yard field goal with 63 of his 70 (90%) kickoffs going for touchbacks. Jared Zirkel has undoubtedly the biggest kicking leg in the country. The 6'3 Hill Country kicker hit a 70 yard field goal at practice and several kickoffs over 80 yards and 4.3+ seconds putting his leg strength amongst NFL kickers.

Trey McTaggart
Muenster HS - Muenster, Texas
The small German town of Muenster houses one of the most consistent HS kickers in the nation. McTaggart had a perfect 100/100 PAT streak throughout 2017, amassing 127 points his sophomore season putting him at #2 in the entire country for points by a kicker. The 2x All-State kicker holds multiple offers and turned heads on the college camp circuit winning events at Notre Dame and finishing among the top at Wisconsin.

Everett Ornstein
Langham Creek HS - Houston, Texas
The Houston product is verbally committed to UTSA on scholarship. He has emerged as one of the top kicker/punter recruits in the state. Everett has a big leg and can do all 3 - field goals, kickoffs, and punts.

Anthony Ortiz
Royse City HS - Royse City, Texas
The 5A All-District kicker only started kicking 2 years ago and has evolved quickly. He's won several Kicking World field goal and kickoff events. Anthony completed his junior year football season with a perfect 9/9 FG and 14/14 PAT.

Perrin Teer
Huntington HS - Huntington, Texas
Perrin has a big kickoff leg and a field goal range from inside 55 yards. The All-District kicker shows a lot of potential and if he can get some in-game opportunities this season colleges should start coming around. Perrin has a 1240 SAT score.

Alejandro Chavarria
Central Catholic HS - San Antonio, Texas
Alejandro switched from soccer to football just a year ago and was very raw at the start but made huge progress in less than a few months. The quick learner can do all 3 (FG/KO/P) and has one of the strongest legs of HS kickers in San Antonio.

:: Juniors (2021)

Justin Bohrer
Cedar Park HS - Cedar Park, Texas
Last season the junior helped propel the Timberwolves into the 2nd round of the Texas HS Football state playoffs with a 37 yard game-winning overtime field goal. Justin Bohrer is listed as the top Class of 2021 kicker on the Kicking World Hot Prospect List, ranking him as one of the best kickers in the nation. The Cedar Park product is poised for a big junior season and is scholarship ready.

Garrett Stiles
Seguin HS - Seguin, Texas
The 6'2 kicker made All-District and All-Area honors last season. Garrett has a big kickoff leg and although he only had a few kicks in-game last year, he's got the big kick range and with more in-game opportunities this season he will get college offers.

Tripp Daniel
St Michael's Catholic Academy - Austin, Texas
The top private school kicker in Austin hit a 42 yard field goal last season with 7 of 8 made (88%) and 21 of his 22 PATs (95%) showing a very consistent sophomore campaign. The St Michael's kicker has a 29 ACT.

Nick Hernandez
Ronald Reagan HS - San Antonio, Texas
Following a very impressive HS career from former Reagan kicker Steven Opella who's now off to the University of Nevada, Nick looks to make his mark on Varsity this season. Hernandez can do all 3 - field goals, kickoffs, and punts, and shows a lot of upside and should start getting interest from colleges very soon.

:: Sophomores (2022)

Buck Buchanan
Hallsville HS - Hallsville, Texas
One of Kicking World's youngest Hot Prospects, Buck had an impressive performance at the 2018 National Showcase where he finished near the top of his class and in the upper tier of over 60 kickers who attended from over 20 states. The HS sophomore has shown he can kick field goals from 55 yards out and kickoffs deep in the end zone. He's an under-classmen kicker that should turn heads this season.

"At Capitol Fence, we work with a variety of automatic gate systems in Austin, Texas and gate operators for both commercial and residential properties. Our main product line is through our partner, LiftMaster. We've installed single access and multi-access systems and solar powered with sliding and swing gates," said Mike Morrow, CEO Capitol Fence in Austin.

Here's some of the gate types we've worked with:
* Swing Gates
* Slide Gates
* Specialty Overhead Operators
* Barrier Gate Operators
* Motorized Lift Gates
* Manual Lift and Swing Gates
* Access Control Systems
* Gate Hardware
* Accessories.

UL 325 Standards

As experienced automated gate installers in Austin, Texas, we meet or exceed the UL 325 standards. It's important for residential and commercial property owners to realize that many gate installers do not have proper credentials to install gates. In this case, while it is possible for a cheaper installation, it is also considered more hazardous because failure to meet UL 325 standards can result in a higher risk of electrocution to individuals.

"We've seen this issue arise in the local Austin, Texas community with contractors who are not licensed to install automated gates to properly meet UL 325 standards," adds Morrow.

Capitol Fence provides UL 325 certified staff to install and test our top-of-the-line automated gate systems to prevent hazards and ensure safety.

Virtual Mail Small Business Scan Mailboxes Celebrates 5th Anniversary With 1 Millionth Scan

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Scan Mailboxes(R) announced today that they took just five years to go from startup to its millionth scan of client mail. Co-founders Ken Brown and Chris Landry started Scan Mailboxes in 2014 with a desire to provide a more efficient way for people to read their mail no matter where they are - saving time and environmental waste in the process.

"Today people and businesses are more virtual than ever. They travel, do business all over the world and are more likely to operate their business and affairs through their phones," explains founder Ken Brown. "We play a critical role for people who are trying to live a more virtual life but still rely on the necessities of the postal service."

Scan Mailboxes owes its growth in part to its ability to provide customers with an Austin mailing address, a hot commodity due to the city's growing population and global prestige. "Many of our clients are small businesses who want an Austin mailing address, and we're able to serve as a registered agent or provide a corporate mailing address," points out Brown, as he explains how their Austin location has been advantageous. Scan Mailboxes also benefits from the heavy concentration of apartments within Austin, with individuals who move frequently opting for a more stable, and secure mailbox solution.

"The Scan Mailboxes App allows people to read and manage their postal mail and packages on their phones," explains founder Chris Landry. After opening mail virtually on the Scan Mailboxes app, the client can then decide what to do with the mail, such as to hold for pickup, shred, forward, or take other action such as depositing checks. In five years, Scan Mailboxes has grown into a role as a comprehensive mailroom solution for businesses and individuals that have deposited over $15 million in client checks and securely shredded over 3.3 million pages of mail. "We take our client privacy and security seriously, it's a core part of what we do," said Landry.

The emphasis on a secure virtual mailbox solution and good customer service has paid off for Scan Mailboxes with a 30% increase in new accounts and a recent office expansion to accommodate its employees and mail handling capabilities. "We're looking to grow our Texas footprint in the next five years," explains founder Ken Brown. "The early days were very challenging for us as a startup. Nothing came easy and there were good decisions and bad decisions that we worked through. We're proud to be a debt-free company thinking carefully about new locations."

The virtual mail company has also been able to nurture its social mission to expand employment opportunities for Deaf individuals. Since 2014, over 15 Deaf people have been hired to work in its Austin offices through more inclusive hiring, a point of pride for Co-founders Brown and Landry. "There are real issues with finding long-term employment in the Deaf community, and as business owners we can do something about this. Our Deaf employees are incredibly efficient and adept at their jobs, and they are a huge part of our success," says Brown.

The company is conveniently located near downtown Austin and the Austin Bergstrom International Airport off I-35 and Highway 71/Ben White Boulevard, providing its customers who travel frequently with a convenient pickup location. The company has recently begun advertising in the airport, running a 10-second video spot throughout all hours of the day.
