Smart stylish automated lighting
Do you want a sleek, modern, clean appearance in your home? There’s no need for unattractive banks of light switches any more. All your lighting can be controlled from your phone or using a customised centralised dimming module, which you can access from a hidden cabinet or somewhere else that’s out of the way. An elegant keypad or touch screen replaces those unsightly light switches. You make the choice about which options work best for you. We make it happen just the way you want it. Contact us to talk about lighting in your new home.
Multi-room smart audio
Whether you’re cooking, cleaning, getting ready for a night out or you have guests over, your perfect soundtrack is a few swipes away. Create the ideal ambience with music where and when you want it. With clear sound and a simple, intuitive operation, all you have to worry about is what music to choose. Your speakers and controls should be set up how you will use them. We work with you to ensure it’s the perfect sound for your lifestyle.
Smart drapes and blinds
Transform your rooms into elegant, light-filled spaces. Control the light in your home with a variety of gorgeous, smart window treatments. Shade control blinds, elegant Roman blinds and drapes finish a room and allow the perfect control over privacy and light. You can automate drapes to close at 5pm in winter to keep the warmth in, or for sun shades to block that blinding summer light at 7pm. Maybe you’re on holiday, so you automate the drapes to close and open as though you’re at home. Drape tracks, roman blind runners, even skylight solutions can all be controlled with a touch of a button- no unwieldy rollers or winding. You don’t even have to leave your seat.
Door locks
We can take all your security worries away. Whether this is for your home or an AirBnB, automated locks offer maximum security control. Our door locks are deadbolts, controlled by touch screens. Perfect for kids or AirBnB guests, there’s no key to lose, just a code so they can enter their home any time they need. You can also control the door remotely—so when a guest arrives, or tradesman, or friend, and you’re still in the office, you can remotely unlock the door. Set up a chain of events so that the door unlocks, the lights come on and the house disarms, all at the same time.
Video distribution
There’s watching TV, and then there’s watching 4K ultra-HD. With crisp, clean graphics, no lag, and super fast streaming, this is movies, miniseries, and gaming on the next level. With a quick touch of a button, you can ensure the screen is perfectly optimised for the content you’re viewing. If you want to keep an eye on the cricket while you’re playing a game or watching the rugby, you can have screen-in-screen so you don’t miss anything important.
Alarm system integration
To work correctly, an alarm system needs to be fully integrated. Any part of the system that fails can cause false positives or false negatives—an alarm going off for no reason in the middle of the night, or not going off when an intruder enters the home. For this reason, our Crestron systems are seamless. From the central control panel, there’s easy access to all security functions and they are all integrated perfectly. Everything operates with ease from one centralised panel, from your garage door to the CCTV.
Integrated home theatre
Your home becomes the place to be; where your teenagers and their friends want to hang out, where the family are happiest. A completely integrated home theatre gives you the control to watch your favourite movies like you would at the theatre. But there’s no worries about parking or other people rustling chip packets – just you, your favourite snacks, and Luke Skywalker (or Elsa).
Video intercom integration
The doorbell rings when you’re cooking, or putting the baby to sleep, or when you’ve just sat down. Luckily, Crestron makes it easy to see who is at the door, and to communicate with them. All touch panels in the house will communicate with the video intercom. When you answer, the other panels turn off. You can communicate easily with the person at the door, and can even unlock the door and let them in if needed… without having to leave your current task.
Mobile control
You are at the office. The doorbell rings. You are notified on your phone. You can see via the front door camera that it’s your guest. Push a button, and the house is disarmed and the door unlocks. Make life easier for yourself with full home automation. NZ’s weather changes in a heartbeat. When you left this morning, it was fine and sunny, but now there’s a howling southerly and rain pouring down. Increase the heating at home while you’re still at your desk, and know you’ll be perfectly warm when you arrive home. Or, you popped out for dinner but forgot to water the garden on a hot summer day—no problems. Set your sprinklers going while you’re across town. You are in full control. We give you the power.
Climate integration
Keeping your home toasty warm in winter, and cool and fresh in summer, climate control is a huge part of a healthy, smart, home. Crestron integrates easily with most industry standard heat pumps and air conditioning units and provides extra value. Control your climate without any remote controls- all can be managed by the house control panel and your cell phone. You can even change your home temperature remotely, when coming home from work when NZ weather decides to change seasons during the day.
Lighting design
If you don’t get the lighting right in your home, it affects everything. Stylish art can’t be seen, fluorescent lighting kills the romantic dinner mood, and you can’t see what you’re doing in the kitchen. Employing an architect to plan the most beautiful lighting in your home is one thing. Being able to control the lumens at the touch of a button is another. Cosy and calm at night, bright and airy during the day. We work with your designer so the lighting is perfect, whatever the mood or situation.
Wireless networking
Everything modern is on the internet of things. From your fridge to your heating system, you need everything to be online, connected, and secure. We have the skills to install and configure a range of systems, from a basic peer-to-peer network through to a server based system. Proper planning is key to a well-designed, efficient and secure system. Resource sharing, wireless access points, firewall protection and file storage are all components of a beautifully designed computer network. This is the back end of your system and it has to be designed optimally so you get the absolute best outcome. We deal with all the technical back-end so your day-to-day life is simple and secure from hackers.
Wired networking
While most TVs and other home electronics have the ability to function wirelessly, the connectivity is always better when hard wired. There’s no downtime or lag, no problems with connections, and even if you have full wireless functions, you still need back-up options. We make sure there’s full functionality by having hard-wired networking functionality.
