UniFi Powers Smart Upgrade at TOWD Auto Service Shop

China's premium auto customization market is booming. TOWD Shanghai Tongde, founded in 2014, is the first HUNTER-certified chassis diagnostic and tuning center in East China, specializing in BMW customization. Before the upgrade, consumer-grade gear caused dropouts under load, and scattered cameras made unified management difficult.

The Challenge

TOWD needed end-to-end coverage and traceability across zones (mod bay, clean room, staff and customer areas) to avoid handoff disputes. They also needed low-touch operations without a dedicated IT team, plus a consistent look aligned with their premium brand aesthetic.

The UniFi Solution

TOWD deployed a full UniFi stack across their facility:

  • Network: Enterprise switching, PoE backbone, and just 3 U6-Pro APs delivering full-site coverage across ~1,000 m², supporting 300+ IoT devices and 85+ endpoints
  • Protect: 18 cameras with AI-powered detection, G6 PTZ for license plate recognition, and 3 AI Key units processing up to 1,000 smart events per hour
  • Access: NFC readers and intercom at entrances, with LPR-triggered access policies for unattended drop-off and pick-up

Results

  • Full-stack unified management under one license-free dashboard
  • AI-driven physical security with automated vehicle access integration
  • Ultra-efficient Wi-Fi covering ~1,000 m² with just 3 access points
  • Showroom-grade hardware that doubles as brand presentation
"UniFi's ecosystem is complete, easy, and beautiful, delivering improvements we feel every day." - Mr. Xu, Founder of TOWD

Why This Matters for Your Business

This is the kind of deployment GTZ Integrations builds for local businesses in Southern Colorado, cameras, networking, and access control in a single, manageable platform. Whether you run an auto shop, retail store, or professional office, the same enterprise-grade tools work at any scale.
