At your fingertips
With the evolution of the smart home, virtually all technologies can be centrally networked. We believe 'smart' should be clever but also intuitive to use and live with. When considering a control system there are a few brands emerging as front runners that are widely integratable and will be around for years to come.
We are qualified Control4 Professionals and Authorised Dealer. For you this means home automation pro service, tech support with remote login troubleshooting capability, and first choice equipment supplier.

Selecting the room or rooms you can play any track via app, remote control or touch screen. Track selection, playlist choice and cue order is within everyone's reach with centralised audio control.

Lighting
Lighting control provides a number of advantages — whilst it visually sculpts the space, it saves energy, adds a layer of security and enhances the atmosphere. From courtesy lighting that knows you have arrived to addional occupancy sensors that turn lights on and off as you move around. We can programme different configurations for sunset, evening, dining and entertaining scenes.
In Harrods we installed a Lutron Dali lighting system in 16 zones with five scene settings for their Chai Wu restaurant.
Climate
Better heating, cooling and shade counts to a comfortably balanced environment with optimally efficient energy usage. The smartest homes feature control systems that reach everything logically but also allow individual and convenient control when required. Simple controllers such as Nest and Hive can also be integrated in to climate control. Automated blinds and curtains can assist to maintain the climate temperature and protect fabrics, furniture and artworks from strong sunlight.
At Sotherby's we setup the electronic blinds control – preset for different times of the day to protect the artwork on display.
The smart home presents the opportunity to tailor your access control, door entry and security requirements. In a world of deliveries and visiting services, pin code and finger print pads, keys, gates and doors can be appropriately assigned for residents and visitors. Security via 'anywhere-in-the-world' entry and access monitoring can be seamlessly integrated in to the house system. Motion sensors can trigger hi-res cameras, lighting, security alarms, smart water, and security personnel. We work with accredited security professionals to install and then configure the setup creating the really smart and safe home.
