Industries
A guest only sees the front desk. Behind it, housekeeping, maintenance and the front office have to be talking to each other in real time, or the guest notices.
Hiscall designs, installs and supports phone systems, unified communications, overhead paging, CCTV, access control and digital signage for hotels and hospitality properties nationwide. One certified team installs it, and the same team answers when you call.

A hotel or hospitality property runs on communication moving in every direction at once: guest to front desk, front desk to housekeeping, housekeeping to maintenance, all of it happening while a guest is standing at the counter. Clear and concise communication between departments is essential for seamless service and timely responses to guest needs, and that only happens when the phone system, paging and networking behind it are designed together. Hiscall designs the whole path, from the first call to the last night's security walk, and supports all of it with the same certified technicians who installed it.
How it fits together
From the first call to the last night's security walk
A property runs on dozens of small handoffs between departments a guest never sees. Built as one system, those handoffs happen instantly. Built from four separate vendors, a guest is the one who notices when they don't.
The arrival
VoIP and cloud-based phone systems, unified communications and interactive voice response route a guest's call correctly from the very first ring, before they've even checked in.
The stay
Voice-to-email and speech-to-text make sure a guest's request doesn't get lost between shifts, while IP-based overhead paging keeps housekeeping, maintenance and the front desk connected in real time.
The property
Interactive displays, video walls and digital signage guide guests around the property and promote events and amenities without a separate vendor for every screen.
The night
CCTV, access control and data networking secure guest floors and back-of-house areas around the clock, all riding on the low voltage cabling underneath.
Why one team
What actually changes when one team owns the whole system
A property that buys phones, cameras and signage from three vendors owns the gaps between them too, usually while a guest is waiting. Here is what that costs in practice.
| Where it counts | Hiscall | Separate vendors per system |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | One team, one schedule | Coordinated by you, across contractors |
| Support calls | A Hiscall employee who knows your property | Whichever vendor you guess is responsible |
| System integration | Designed together from the start | Bolted together after the fact, if at all |
| Cross-department coordination | One point of accountability | Finger-pointing between vendors |
| Everything else | Cabling, cameras, AV, IT, all included | Another vendor, another contract |
Built for guest experience, not adapted to it
Four capabilities that general low voltage contractors typically do not carry.
- Unified communications & voice-to-email. Keeps a guest request moving between departments and shifts instead of getting lost in a handoff.
- IP-based overhead paging. Connects housekeeping, maintenance and the front desk in real time across the whole property.
- Video walls & digital signage. Guides guests and promotes events and amenities without a separate vendor for every screen.
- Priority customer service. A trained, Hiscall-badged employee who knows your property, not a call center overseas.
What we install
Every system across the property, from one team
Most properties buy each system from a different vendor, then spend years getting them to talk to each other. We put them on one design and one support relationship.
Phone systems
VoIP and cloud-based phone systems with unified communications, voice-to-email and speech-to-text, sized for a single property or a multi-property group.
TelecommunicationsCabling and infrastructure
Copper and fiber optic low voltage infrastructure installed by BICSI-certified technicians, sized to a single property or a full campus.
Network CablingCameras & access control
CCTV security cameras and access control systems protecting guest floors, back-of-house areas and entry points, under Tennessee CCTV license #1405.
Security SolutionsData networking
Data networking equipment that keeps phones, paging and signage running reliably across the whole property.
IT Services & Data NetworkingInteractive displays & digital signage
Interactive displays, video walls and digital signage guiding guests and promoting events and amenities.
Audio VisualOverhead paging & message on hold
IP-based overhead paging connecting departments in real time, plus music and message-on-hold for every call.
Audio VisualProperties we work with every week
From a single independent property to a multi-location group, with the same certified technicians on every job.
- Independent hotels & inns. Phones, paging and CCTV scoped to a single property, not sold as an enterprise package.
- Multi-property groups. Consistent systems and support across every location, with one point of contact instead of a different vendor per site.
- Resorts & extended-stay properties. Digital signage and video walls sized to a larger footprint with more guest-facing amenities.
- Event & conference venues. Interactive displays and audio/visual built around a space that changes configuration from one event to the next.
How we work
Five steps, and you know who to call at each one
Survey
We come to you at no charge, look at what is already in place, and tell you honestly what should be replaced and what has life left in it.
Design
You get a documented scope and clear pricing. For a multi-property group, we design one standard that repeats cleanly across every location.
Install
Installation is scheduled around occupancy, not around us.
Train
On-site sessions for front desk, housekeeping and maintenance staff, repeated as often as your team needs it.
Support
You call us directly, not a queue, with 24/7/365 emergency response and unlimited moves, adds and changes.
Local technicians, coverage across the Midsouth and beyond
Two Tennessee offices put a certified Hiscall employee close by. Cloud-managed systems let us monitor, configure and resolve a great deal remotely, so a multi-property group costs you far less time than it used to.
- Dickson. Corporate headquarters and 25,000 square foot distribution facility, serving Middle Tennessee and the Nashville region. Reach the Dickson office directly at (615) 740-7771.
- Knoxville. Branch office at 4620 Old Broadway, serving East Tennessee since 2001, with the same certified technicians and the same emergency response. Reach the Knoxville office directly at (865) 862-4650.
- You reach a person. You work directly with a trained, certified, Hiscall-badged employee. Your needs are not outsourced to a call center overseas.
- Beyond our two offices. We also have employees based in West Tennessee and Kentucky, and we support customers throughout the Midsouth region and several nationwide.
