Lighting control replaces cluttered banks of switches with intelligent keypads and dimmers that run scenes, schedules, and motorized shades from a single, elegant interface. NetworkAware designs the lighting-control layout during construction so every load, keypad, and shade is wired correctly and the whole home responds to one touch.
It gives the whole home coordinated light. Instead of hunting through a wall of switches, a single keypad recalls scenes — dimmed for a movie, bright for cooking, a path of low light at night. Schedules and motorized shades follow the day automatically, and one button turns everything off on the way out.
Daylight is the best light in the home, and shades control it. Integrating motorized shades with the lighting system lets scenes balance electric light and daylight together — lowering shades against afternoon glare, raising them at wake time — which improves comfort and cuts energy use the lighting alone can't.
For a full system, yes. Keypad locations, dimmer loads, and shade power all belong in the plan before drywall. Wiring lighting control at construction gives clean keypad placement, proper load wiring, and reliable performance that retrofit wireless dimmers, useful as they are, can only partly match.

Lighting control is a system of intelligent keypads, dimmers, and schedules that operate a home's lighting as coordinated scenes, replacing large banks of individual switches with a clean, one-touch interface.
A scene sets multiple lights (and often shades) to preset levels with one button — for example an 'entertain' scene that dims the living areas and raises kitchen light, recalled instantly from a keypad or app.
Yes. Motorized shades integrate with the lighting system so scenes and schedules manage daylight and electric light together for comfort, privacy, and energy savings.
Not when it's specified correctly. We match dimmers to fixture and driver types and tune the load so LED and other sources dim smoothly and flicker-free across the full range.
We install Lutron-class lighting-control systems chosen for reliability, smooth dimming, and long-term manufacturer support, sized to the scope of the home.
Yes. Astronomic timeclock schedules track sunrise and sunset year-round, so exterior and interior lighting follow the day automatically without manual adjustment.
For a full keypad-based system, yes — keypad locations, dimmer loads, and shade power belong in the walls. Retrofit wireless options exist but can't fully match a wired design.
Yes. Lighting control ties into whole-home automation, so it coordinates with AV, climate, security, and one-touch scenes across every system.
