Decades of Experience
In the 1950s, Master Video installed the first, multi-purpose television system in New York's Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. We continued direct sales of television systems in the lodging market with 23 offices nationwide throughout the 1960s. We entered the healthcare market as a sub-contractor to a national television company and expanded into the healthcare market upon moving our corporate offices from New York to Dallas, Texas in the 1980s.
Master Video continued our growth pattern by successfully integrating systems in many notable hospitals, small healthcare facilities, hotels, motels, schools, prisons, stadium venues, and other commercial facilities.
One Company - One Source Service
In 2004, CEO George Lawshe retired and transferred controlling interest of Master Video to his son G. Michael Lawshe, former investment banker. The new CEO wasted no time initiating a new business model, geared to propel the company to a national stature.
The company soon purchased a larger facility, to support their growing team and warehouse needs. The new facility is fully equipped with a job shop and production facility, which we use to engineer, design, fabricate, manufacture, and stage specialized proprietary products, used in many types of television systems. Our services were also expanded to include engineering and design, consulting, installation field services, maintenance, and repair, and in-service training, solidifying our "One Company- One Source" service.
The Customer is Always Number One
In 2009, Master Video was one of the corporations selected as a service provider in the installation of over 3,000 flat panel displays, throughout the Cowboy's Stadium, a Guinness World Record for an entertainment facility.
Master Video is a concept to completion solution with a proven track record of success and customer satisfaction for over 60 years. We have continued our growth and success by consistently providing our customers with premium service and respect and by expanding the markets and customers that we serve. We will continue to follow this practice in the future and believe in the old adage "The Customer is Always Number One".
