The Smart Home Technology Services You’re Looking For

Our team stays up-to-date with the latest industry trends and home automation products to provide a diverse range of services. We offer customized technology solutions designed specifically to meet your needs.

Consultation

To craft personalized technology solutions, our journey begins with getting to know you. Every project starts with a comprehensive needs analysis. By asking detailed questions about your requirements and performance expectations, we guide you toward the smart home technology services that best fit your Minneapolis–St. Paul property. We’ll explore your space room by room, often with a physical walk-through, to understand how each area is used and how technology can enhance comfort and efficiency.

Design & Proposal

Once we’ve received your approval on project specifications, it’s time to design your system. During this phase, we’ll walk through product options and determine hardware model numbers, pricing, and the labor required to complete the job. Once we’ve finalized your custom proposal, our team develops the timeline to complete the project, including essential details on low-voltage wiring, lighting load configurations, rack elevations, and keypad specifications.

Project Management

Effective project management is key to the successful completion of our smart technology projects. Our team actively coordinates every aspect to ensure protocols are followed, design plans are adhered to, and and the timeline is updated and communicated to you as needed. With various groups handling security, AV, and lighting subsystems separately, it’s crucial to have a dedicated project manager overseeing the entire process. Our project managers ensure seamless collaboration among our technicians, keeping the project on track and on schedule.

Wire Installation

Low-voltage wiring is the backbone of all our integrated technology projects—especially outdoor entertainment services. We carefully design our projects to incorporate the fiber and copper wiring necessary for AV, security, networking, lighting, and home theater services. Our wiring infrastructure is built to meet current system needs and is ready to support future technology upgrades. We not only select the appropriate wire for each application but also meticulously organize our racks for easy maintenance and upgrades. Whether for new construction or retrofitting an existing space, we offer tailored solutions to meet your needs.

Integration

When the installation process begins, we start with the initial setup of conduit, low-voltage wiring, and enclosures. Next, our team installs all equipment, including displays, keypads, and speakers, as outlined in the original plans. Our system and product-trained staff is well-versed in the specific installation requirements of all our manufacturers, including Savant. They adhere strictly to the design approved by you or your team, ensuring the delivery of an intuitive and reliable system that meets your performance expectations.

Programming

Bringing all your technology together requires expert programming and system configuration. This crucial step ensures seamless communication between your lighting, audio, video, security cameras, and other systems. Our experienced programmers craft intuitive control experiences using touch screens, keypads, remotes, and voice control. Every project has unique demands, so we customize the interfaces to align perfectly with your specific needs, delivering a cohesive and easy-to-use solution.

System Monitoring

After the installation’s complete, our technicians can remotely monitor all your network and IP-connected devices to guarantee optimal performance. Through a centralized dashboard, we can instantly assess the status of your lighting, climate, security, and AV systems, receiving real-time updates and identifying any issues that require attention. In addition to resolving problems promptly, we automatically apply software upgrades and patches. Regular network performance tests can be conducted to address network latency and other potential performance problems.

Maintenance & Support

We provide top-tier service for all our clients, offering ongoing maintenance and support to address any issues swiftly and effectively. As technology naturally experiences wear and tear, we continually fine-tune your system to maintain peak performance and functionality. Our tailored service plans include remote system management, tech support, priority response times, and annual on-site tech reviews. Additionally, we act as your technology advisor, keeping you informed about new advancements that could enhance your system's performance.

Remodeling

Discover smart technology solutions tailored for residential and commercial remodeling projects. These options let you upgrade your current infrastructure without the need for major demolition or starting from scratch. Easily integrate wireless shading, lighting, and audio-video systems to enhance your daily routines with minimal disruption. Our team is skilled in addressing the unique challenges of designing and implementing retrofit solutions. Based on a thorough needs analysis, we'll create a system that blends seamlessly with your existing interiors and hardware.

Lighting Control System Design

Enhance the ambiance and conserve energy with a lighting control system that lets you adjust the brightness, color, and quality of light in any room. Our lighting designers craft a layered design using overhead, accent, and downlighting to set the perfect environment for any occasion. Fixtures are grouped into dedicated loads, controlled by a single switch or dimmer, allowing you to create scenes that trigger multiple actions with one tap. For example, a 'Bedtime' scene could gradually dim the lights and close your motorized shades for a peaceful transition to sleep. We provide detailed documentation showing the placement of all panels, wiring, and on-wall keypads, dimmers, and switches.
