Lairds of Troon · Technology engineers
The Modern Boardroom. Connected and Clear.
In the hybrid world, the meeting room is your window to the global market. We design intelligent workspaces where video, audio and room control work together with a single touch.
End the “Can You Hear Me?” Nightmare.
Nothing kills momentum like technical failure. We replace tangle cables and complex remotes with streamlined systems. Whether using Microsoft Teams, Zoom, or Google Meet, our rooms are ready to start in seconds, not minutes.
The Huddle Space:
Agile spaces for quick collaboration. Integrated soundbars and wide-angle cameras turn small rooms into productivity hubs.
The Meeting Room:
The engine room of business. Dual-screen setups, wireless presentation sharing, and crystal-clear table audio for your daily teams.
The Executive Boardroom:
Where decisions happen. Ceiling-mounted microphones, invisible speakers, and automated lighting for high-impact client presentations.
One Touch Control.
Walk in, press “Start Meeting,” and you are live. We integrate lighting, HVAC, and automated blinds into the same panel, ensuring the environment is perfect for every call without needing a manual.
How a boardroom project runs with Lairds
A meeting room is judged on the first call made from it. We design the room so that call works, and we stay responsible for it afterwards. Three things decide whether that happens.
Designed from the drawings, with your IT team
We work from the floor plan and the furniture layout, not from a product list. Microphone coverage, camera position, display size and sightlines, acoustic treatment and lighting are settled on the drawing, and the network, security and room-booking integration are agreed with your IT people to their standards. Where there is an architect or fit-out contractor, containment and power go into their package rather than being chased in afterwards.
Delivered around the fit-out programme
Boardrooms are usually built inside a wider refurbishment with a date attached. We schedule first fix, installation and commissioning around the other trades, and the room is tested with a real call to a real far end before anyone is invited to use it. Handover includes a short session with the people who will run meetings in it, because most reported faults in conference rooms are not faults.
Supported after the first meeting
Support is agreed before handover: remote diagnosis first, attendance on site where that will not resolve it, and firmware and platform updates kept current so that the room does not fall behind Teams, Zoom or Google Meet. The same agreement can cover the rest of the building, from signage to networking, when you are ready to extend it.
Questions we are asked
Are we tied to Teams or Zoom?
No. We specify platform-agnostic hardware, so the room does not become an argument about which service your visitors use. If your organisation has standardised on one platform we will optimise for it, but a guest arriving with a different one should still be able to start a call.
How is this different from your commercial AV service?
Scale and focus. This page is about the room: one space, the people in it and the people joining remotely. The commercial AV service is about an estate: signage, networking, access control and multiple rooms across a building or several buildings. Most clients start with one room and grow into the second conversation.
Do you supply room booking panels?
Yes, including the occupancy data that comes with them. Booking panels are usually bought to stop double-booking, and the useful part turns out to be finding out which rooms are actually used and which are booked and left empty.
Do you handle the network and WiFi as well?
Yes, and we would rather do both. A conference room is only as reliable as the connection behind it, and most rooms that are described as unreliable are reliable rooms on an overloaded network. Where you have an IT team we work to their standards rather than around them.
What actually makes a room work on a video call?
Not the screen. It is whether people at the far end can hear clearly and see faces that are lit from the front, which comes down to microphone coverage, acoustic treatment where the room is hard-surfaced, camera position and lighting. A large display in an echoing room with a window behind the speaker is the common mistake.
Who supports it once it is in?
We do. Support is agreed before handover, with remote diagnosis first and attendance on site where that will not resolve it. We also run a session with the people who use the room, because most reported faults in conference rooms are not faults.
