OUR PROCESS
Consultation
We have consultants available to visit your home to evaluate your proposed entertainment area and to make recommendations on home entertainment products and/or custom installation solutions. Call or visit our showroom to setup your in-home consultation. We will work with you to come up with a date and time that works with your busy schedule. We want your input so that we can come up with a custom installation that fits your needs, lifestyle and budget.
System Design & Engineering
Comprehensive and thoughtful system design and engineering up front leads to the best balance of functionality, reliability and aesthetics in the end result. Avoid costly mistakes or order changes, having to do something twice, or tearing up walls once they’ve been closed. Careful attention is given to the numerous details involved with smart technology and integrated systems to ensure they are easy to use and deliver consistent performance and allow for future expansion or upgrades. Everything from wiring infrastructure, hardware location, control device placement, user interface design, power management and blending equipment with architectural elements and interiors is planned out in advance. We coordinate with architects, engineers, interior designers, general contractors, and affected sub-contractors.
Project Management
A smart technology project takes effective planning, organizing, and allocating resources to make sure it’s completed on time and with the desired result at fit and finish. Additionally, procedures and protocols need to be met and unforeseen problems should be resolved quickly. Our dedicated project managers oversee all details and consistently communicate with the contractor, subcontractors and owner. Job sites are dynamic with many moving parts and having a solid, experienced person responsible to bring it altogether makes all the difference. Given the multi-faceted nature of integrating different sub-systems from audio/video, lighting control, climate, security, networking, and we take a proactive approach and over-communicate every step of the way.
Installation
An integral part of our commitment to deliver best in class systems for the modern smart home is the diligence and honed skills of our highly trained technical team. With years of education, installation experience, and troubleshooting we are able to implement complex systems in the home that operate easily, efficiently, and are consistently creating raving fans out of clients and design-build partners.
Programming
The finishing touch to the commissioning of a system is programming the interfaces our clients will be using to control everything we’ve installed. This can range from keypads, to remotes, to iPad apps and everything in-between. Our talented programmers are excellent when it comes to taking these systems and disparate products and rolling their control into one easy to use app or handheld remote and they are constantly innovating — figuring out more ways to improve the user experience.
Demonstration
Once we’ve completed our installation, we will do a full demonstration and in-depth user training with your family to ensure everyone is comfortable using your new system once we leave. We pride ourselves on creating control interfaces that are intuitive, so while you may have questions from time to time, we believe you’ll feel right at home quickly. Rest assured, we’re always just a phone call away when you need us.
