Your Trusted Carolina Integrated Partner

Local expertise. National-quality solutions. 16+ years protecting Carolina businesses.

Founded in 2015, Advanced Carolina Technologies was built on a simple principle: Carolina businesses deserve security and technology solutions backed by local expertise, quality workmanship, and genuine partnership.​

 

With over 16 years of combined experience in the cable, security, and telecommunications industries, we've developed deep expertise in designing and installing systems that protect what matters most: your people, your property, and your operations. What started as a vision to provide exceptional service has grown into one of the Carolinas' most trusted commercial integrated technology providers, specializing in electronic security solutions, commercial A/V systems, and commercial network & Wi-Fi solutions.

​​

Today, we focus almost exclusively on commercial and institutional clients, from schools and healthcare facilities to hotels, industrial operations, government buildings, faith-based facilities, construction, and commercial real estate. While we occasionally serve residential clients through referrals, our passion and expertise lie in solving the complex security challenges facing Carolina businesses.

Meet Terrell Shropshire

As the founder and owner of Advanced Carolina Technologies, I'm personally involved in every project we undertake. My background spans 20 years in the security, telecommunications, and technology industries, giving me a comprehensive understanding of how these systems work together to protect businesses.

 

I started this company because I saw too many businesses receiving cookie-cutter solutions from national providers who didn't take time to understand their unique needs. I believe in education, helping clients understand their options, the value of different technologies, and how to make informed decisions that protect their investment.

 

I'm a proud North Carolinian with deep ties to this community. When I'm not designing comprehensive technology solutions, you'll find me watching the Carolina Partners, UNC basketball, spending time with family, and serving in my local church.

Certifications & Trainings:

  • HUB Certified

  • Authorized Dealer and Certified with these major brands: AJAX, Eagle Eye, PDK, Brivo, ButterflyMX, Uniview, Vivotek, Axis, URC, Brilliant

Responsive Local Service

We're based in the Carolinas and committed to this community. When you need us, we're here, not routing you through a national call center or distant support team.

Client Education & Partnership

We believe informed clients make better decisions. We take time to explain your options, educate you on the technology, and help you understand the value of your investment.

Quality Over Quantity

We don't rush through projects to maximize volume. Every installation receives the attention and craftsmanship it deserves, ensuring systems that work reliably for years.

Trust & Transparency

No hidden fees. No forced subscriptions. No high-pressure sales tactics. We provide honest recommendations and transparent pricing because long-term relationships matter more than one-time sales.

Our Values

Our Commitment to You

When you work with Advanced Carolina Technologies, you're not just hiring a vendor; you're partnering with a team that's invested in your success. We don't consider a project complete until you're completely satisfied and fully trained on your new systems. And we'll be here for ongoing support long after installation is complete.
