The objectives of building automation are improved occupant comfort, efficient operation of building systems, reduction in energy consumption, reduced operating and maintaining costs, increased security, historical performance documentation, remote access/control/operation, and improved life cycle of equipment and related utilities.
Today's technology offers innovative solutions to building automation and industrial process control issues. Whether it's HVAC, lighting, security, or your own unique situation, our product can help you address these challenges head on.
Fives Lund delivers engineering with a complete customer focus. From machine and system consultation and design through assembly, commissioning and ongoing support.
For the Space Needle renovation Century Project, Fives Lund was consulted on the turntable frame, support and drive mechanisms for the world’s first and only rotating glass floor now known as The Loupe. The system was conceived, detail designed, fabricated and commissioned by Fives Lund. Fives Lund chose a Maple 7" Industrial Panel PC to control and monitor The Loupe. The Loupe has been in operation for the public since August 2, 2018.
"I’ll always pay more for a quality product that gives me enough extra power and flexibility to accommodate the inevitable increase in scope or performance our customers tend to need."
Ken Roach, Senior Controls Engineer, Fives Lund

With proper monitoring, you can save energy and reduce costs.
Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning provide comfort and safe working conditions, so don't allow unexpected failures to catch you off guard. Real-time monitoring and trending of system performance, efficiency and output allow you to predict problems before they occur. Scheduled maintenance is not easily forgotten when staff receive an email or message on their mobile phone providing notification of the exact operation to be performed. From changing a filter to lubrication, to full system tests that may be years apart, let our solutions provide the peace of mind you need.
Commercial buildings can be mammoth-sized energy and expense wasters. When this much energy is wasted, it leads to the loss of jaw-droppingly big bucks—millions nationally, according to research. A building automation system can control lighting using schedules, manual controls, occupancy sensors, and photosensors, either singly or in combination. Much of the energy savings produced by a building automation system comes from scheduling the operation of electrical loads. Our intuitive HMI configuration software and HMI products can help you reduce wasted energy and costs.
This digital transformation of the building automation sector involves moving away from older proprietary systems and adopting edge-to-cloud computing architectures. Our industry solutions help you design a solution that best fits your needs now and for the future as your company demands change. The remote viewing of real-time surveillance video, logging of personnel entry/exit, door status, window sensors and dedicated security system monitoring makes our solutions an excellent choice for your building’s automation system.
