The Today Show (Channel 9 National)
Headline: Security expert catches out intruders in middle of break-in
Reporter: Tom Livingstone
Aired: February 2023
Watch: Watch on 9now.nine.com.au →
The Today Show profiled Jarrod Edwards after a real-time intervention on the Gold Coast. Mid-install at a residential property, Jarrod stepped outside to grab tools and noticed two men casing the home he was working on. The story aired on Today as a case study in why having visible, monitored, premium security infrastructure on a property is a genuine deterrent — and why the same principle applies tenfold to apartment building entries and lobbies, where the right intercom and access control system stops trespassers before they ever reach a tenant’s door.
4BC Brisbane Radio — Spencer Howson Summer Breakfast
Headline: Would-be thieves busted by home security installer
Host: Spencer Howson
Aired: 22 December 2022

4BC Brisbane Radio — Brisbane’s premier news and talk station, owned by Nine Entertainment Co — ran the Gold Coast intervention story on Spencer Howson’s Summer Breakfast. The cross-platform coverage (Nine Network ran the story on both their flagship national TV and flagship Brisbane radio) is the kind of editorial validation strata committees take seriously when doing contractor due diligence.
Channel 9 Brisbane — Home Security Feature 2026
Topic: Brisbane residential security install standards in 2026
Aired: May 2026

Channel 9 Brisbane featured Jarrod in a 2026 home security segment covering premium install standards. Many of the principles discussed — Grade-2 certified hardware, active deterrence systems, manufacturer-backed lifetime warranty hardware over import-grade alternatives — apply directly to apartment building intercom selection, which is the specialist focus of Intercom Solutions.
Dahua Australia — Authorised Installer Interview
Topic: Featured Australian installer profile
Publisher: Dahua Australia
Watch: Watch on Instagram →
Dahua Australia interviewed Jarrod as a recognised Australian installer. While Intercom Solutions is an Akuvox-first specialist, Jarrod’s Dahua-side expertise gives Intercom Solutions customers the rare integrated-systems advantage: CCTV (Dahua) and intercoms (Akuvox / 2N) installed and configured by a single specialist who is recognised by both manufacturers.
Why Intercom Solutions for body-corporate work
The pattern across all four media appearances: Jarrod Edwards is one of the small number of Australian installers who can speak credibly to BOTH technical install standards (hardware, certifications, integration, by-laws compliance) AND the consumer-side and committee-side concerns (what does this actually mean for residents, what’s the real cost-per-unit, what’s the AGM-friendly upgrade path). That dual fluency is exactly what body-corporate decision-making requires.
If you’re a strata manager, body-corporate committee chair, building manager, or property developer evaluating apartment intercom contractors, the easiest filter to apply is: which contractor has been independently profiled by national media for their work? Contact us for a free building survey.
