Our story

Shawn Abitz grew up on Long Island learning the trade in his father’s shop, Installation Specialties, Inc.
From TV antennas to HiFi and early home theaters, he learned precision, discipline, and care.

KB built his reputation in New York City delivering meticulous solutions and white-glove service.
When Charlotte became home, they joined forces to bring high standards and real hospitality to a fast-growing city.
