Discovery Channel features
WM Security Services on Velocity
Halton hills, Ont. When
Legendary Motorcar Com-
pany wanted to upgrade its
security system, it turned
to Waste Management. The
company’s 100-car show-
room in Halton Hills, Ont.,
is the set of the Discovery
Velocity show Legendary
Motorcar.
The popular show is now
in its second season in the
U.S. and aired for 11 sea-
sons in Canada as Dream
Car Garage, hosted by Peter
Klutt, president and owner
of Legendary Motorcar.
Klutt’s 55,000 square-foot
facility opened in 1985
to restore and trade rare
and performance cars. The
business houses shops for
service, restoration, metal
shaping, hot rods, detailing,
storage area and a confer-
ence center.
Klutt wanted to be able to
see his facility remotely
when he traveled and show
it to potential car buyers
through the existing intru-
sion and camera system. The
10-plus-year-old system
needed to be updated, and
that’s when Klutt turned to
Waste Management’s
David Lee, manager of
Security Operations Center,
and Alex Aguilar, manager of
Security Operations Center
technology.
This February, the pair
visited Legendary Motorcar
to upgrade and reposition
several cameras and in-
stall additional cameras to
provide better video cover-
age of the showrooms and
facility.
The intrusion system was
also converted for the WM
Security Operations Center
in Houston to begin moni-
toring this month. Klutt was
provided remote monitor-
ing software for his iPad
and trained on how to pull
up camera views of cars in
his showroom to potential
customers.
Now, WM Security Services
is providing the security
services and solutions, which
was demonstrated during
the May 20 episode, with
four additional shows to
follow.
Legendary Motorcar will air
on Discovery’s new channel
Velocity on Tuesday nights. n
