Bring Your Entire Home Together

A professionally installed smart-home system connects your technology so that everything works together. Instead of managing separate apps, remotes and switches, you can control your home from a touchscreen, handheld remote, smartphone, tablet or compatible voice assistant.

Your system can be programmed around your daily routine. A single command can adjust several devices at once:

Tap “Good Morning” to raise the shades, adjust the temperature and turn on selected lights.
Choose “Movie Night” to dim the lights, lower the shades and start your home theater.
Select “Away” to turn off lights, lock compatible doors, adjust the thermostat and arm the security system.
Tap “Good Night” to shut down the house without walking from room to room.
Check cameras, locks, lighting and other connected devices while you are away.

The goal is not to fill your home with complicated technology. It is to make the technology you already use feel simpler and more natural.

Smart Home Solutions Designed Around You

Lighting Control

Create the right atmosphere for any activity while improving convenience and energy management. Smart lighting allows you to control individual fixtures, groups of lights or the entire home from wall keypads, touchscreens or mobile devices.

We can program custom lighting scenes for entertaining, dining, relaxing, working, watching television, nighttime navigation and vacation schedules.

Motorized Shades

Automated shades offer privacy, comfort and control over natural light. Schedule shades to open in the morning, lower during the hottest part of the day or close automatically in the evening.

Lighting and shades can work together to create a comfortable environment while reducing glare and helping manage indoor temperatures.

Whole-Home Audio and Video

Enjoy music, television and other entertainment throughout your home without cluttering every room with separate equipment.

A centralized system can distribute audio and video to the rooms you choose while giving each person control over what they want to watch or hear. Stream music in the kitchen, watch a game outside or create synchronized entertainment throughout the house.

Home Theater Integration

Transform a dedicated theater or living space into an easy-to-use entertainment experience. One command can turn on the display or projector, select the correct source, set the sound level, close the shades and adjust the room lighting.

Ultra Smart Home can integrate displays, projectors, screens, speakers, receivers, streaming devices and lighting into one straightforward control system.

Climate and Comfort

Connect compatible thermostats, fireplaces, fans and environmental controls to help maintain a comfortable home.

Climate settings can respond to schedules, time of day or home modes such as Away, Vacation and Good Night. Remote access also allows you to check and adjust compatible systems before returning home.

Security Cameras and Access Control

View compatible security cameras, manage smart locks and receive important alerts from home or while you are away.

Integrated security can make it easier to check entrances, see who is at the door or verify that your home is secure. Depending on your equipment, cameras, locks, lighting and alarms can work together as part of automated security scenes.

Reliable Home Networking

Every smart home depends on a strong network. Streaming, automation, security cameras, mobile devices and connected appliances all require dependable Wi-Fi and wired connectivity.

We design and improve home networks to provide better coverage, stable connections and the capacity needed for today’s connected homes. Network planning is especially important for larger properties, outdoor entertainment areas and homes with many connected devices.
