Served from Downers Grove, with clear drive times
We do not list a Schaumburg or Elk Grove office, because we do not have one. Our Chicagoland office is at 1441 Branding Ave, Suite 200, in Downers Grove, near I-88 and I-355. Engineers, crews and service vans leave from here. In a straight line the office is about:
| City | Distance from our office |
|---|---|
| Elk Grove Village | 12 miles |
| Schaumburg | 16 miles |
| Des Plaines | 16 miles |
| Mount Prospect | 17 miles |
| Rolling Meadows | 17 miles |
| Arlington Heights | 18 miles |
| Hoffman Estates | 18 miles |
| Palatine | 20 miles |
| Wheeling | 22 miles |
| Buffalo Grove | 24 miles |
Northwest suburb sites are about 12 to 25 miles from the office in a straight line, so on site visits are scheduled service days, and remote support and our 24/7 NOC/SOC cover every site around the clock.

How working with BTI starts
- Free consultation. Tell us about your sites, systems and goals, by phone or at our Downers Grove office.
- Site visit or assessment. An engineer reviews your IT, security or phones in person or remotely.
- Written scope. You receive an itemized proposal and a plan you can share with leadership.
- Installation or onboarding. Our crews and engineers do the work on a schedule that fits your business.
- Ongoing support. Help desk, on site service and the 24/7 NOC/SOC keep things running.
Why one partner matters
Cameras, door controllers, phones and Wi-Fi all live on your network now. When different vendors own each piece, problems bounce between them and security gaps open where systems meet. BTI designs these systems together: cameras and doors on secured network segments, phones and Wi-Fi sized for the building and one team accountable when something breaks.
