NV Technologies Fire & Security

Who We Are

In 2012, Steve Van Straten founded NV Technologies Fire & Security when the need for a security system arose at his tavern, The Avenue Bar, located in Green Bay, WI.  When his product exceeded his expectations and the system was on full display, requests flooded in to install more camera systems in neighboring car dealerships, restaurants, farms, schools, and commercial businesses.

By 2018, the company had exponentially grown, and Steve expanded the growing security company to install and service fire protection equipment. They became an authorized EST Fire Alarm Dealer, where they are able to design, install and maintain fire systems.  

In 2022, NV Technologies built an office on 1751 Velp Avenue, right next to The Avenue Bar, in Howard, WI. It is conveniently located right between Highways 41 and 43. 

Today, Steve's Daughter, Amy Coté, who got her start in the fire and security industry in 2008, is now is majority owner and NV Technologies is a Woman Owned Small Business.  Amy specializes in assisting hospitals, nursing homes, and other health care providers throughout Wisconsin to get through regulatory inspections performed by CMS, The Joint Commission, DNV, and Department of Health by providing them with compliant inspections and documentation of their life safety systems.

NV Technologies employs technicians throughout the state of Wisconsin, and is proud to be an ESGR Patriot Award winner, supporting employees in the National Guard and Reserves.
