What Opax does

Opax is a Turkish security systems company (legally Opax Mühendislik Kamera Alarm ve Güvenlik Sistemleri Limited Şirketi) headquartered at Opax Plaza in Nevşehir, Turkey, that designs, distributes, and sells its own branded alarm, fire-detection, and surveillance hardware. Its core product is a family of proprietary alarm control panels (BGR-12, W20-W, 2646, 2545LAN, 2747) that support wired, wireless RF, WiFi, GSM/GPRS, and LAN connectivity and scale up to 96 zones, integrated with a proprietary mobile application for remote arm/disarm and push notifications. The portfolio extends to EN-54 certified 868 MHz wireless fire alarm components, IP/AHD cameras, multi-channel NVRs (up to 64-channel 8K), PIR and infrared beam detectors, GSM/GPRS relay modules for gate and barrier control, access control systems, and specialty products such as a WiFi cigarette/vape detector and emergency exit door alarms.

The company's revenue model is one-time hardware sales priced per unit in USD and Turkish Lira, with separate retail (B2C) and wholesale (B2B) tiers. Distribution runs through two primary channels: the opax.com e-commerce storefront selling directly to end consumers, and a regional bayilik (dealership) program that vets and onboards security installers across Turkey via tax-plate verification. Customers span residential homeowners, SMBs, larger commercial sites (warehouses, factories, solar plants, agricultural facilities), and critical-infrastructure operators such as airports, harbors, dams, and border-security installations, with security-sector dealers acting as an intermediary buyer segment. The business is entirely domestic to Turkey; there is no disclosed international distribution. Historical capital activity includes a 2008 funding round of $3.36 million from Saab and Equinor, but Opax currently operates as a privately-held, founder-controlled Limited Şirket with no disclosed institutional investors, no subsidiaries, and a reported headcount of 1-10 employees.
