Introduction

When Grace Chapel brought in ToneProper for their new worship center build, they needed a partner who could think like an architect. Because Grace Chapel engaged us before the first wall went up, we were able to design every system from scratch without the headaches of retrofitting or forcing compromise after construction. When you bring in a full spectrum AV team in at the pre-build stage, you don't just get great gear installed, you get a cohesive ecosystem designed to integrate perfectly with your venue. This is our favorite scenario.

The Challenge

The goal was ambitious complete turnkey solution covering Network IT design, electrical planning, room acoustics, and the integration of high end Audio, Video, and Lighting systems that would look and sound amazing both in-house or streamed at home. There were no existing walls to work around, just a blank canvas and a mutual commitment to excellence from day one.

The Solution

  1. Pre-Construction Design & Consultation: Planning the AV needs before infrastructure decisions were made.
  2. Network IT Design: Building out a robust network to handle streaming, AV control systems, and audio routing simultaneously.
  3. Electrical Design: Ensuring proper power distribution for all high draw lighting and audio gear.
  4. Room Planning & Integration: Mapping the layout to ensure optimal speaker placement, sightlines, and visual coverage.
  5. Audio Video & Lighting Installation: Professional rigging, calibration, and tuning of every system to a rock solid standard before hand off.

The Result

The result is a worship environment where the sound is crystal clear, the lighting hits the right emotional note, and the video production runs on rails. Because we designed everything pre-construction, there are no afterthought or over sight installations, just a cohesive system that works seamlessly.

We delivered a full stack solution designed for longevity with a broadcast level of readiness.

Grace Chapel has since become a loyal rental client of ours at ToneProper.Rent, proving that a relationship built on great service and solid gear lasts long after project completion.
