Lighting control can be used to affect mood, emphasize architecture, illuminate art, and influence action. Lighting automation devices include architectural controls, dimmers, fan speed controls, occupancy sensors, relay panels, timer switches and more. Our lighting systems provide precise, dependable control and complement any residential or commercial application, while offering the potential for significant energy savings. Lighting controls can detect dusk and dawn, helping to conserve energy while adding to the beauty and security of your building and grounds.

Stereo & Video Integrators (SVI) is located in Ocean, NJ and is a home automation and custom A/V integrator. We can work with your electrician or one of our own to create an automated lighting system that can make your life easier and save energy. Lighting controls can come in hundreds of styles and colors to suit your needs. Standard light switches and dimmers can be replaced with our home automation lighting controls to enhance your living or work space. It can be as little as one light or your entire building. Lights can be controlled automatically through timers or occupance sensors or by user controls such as mobile apps or in-wall keypads.

If you are building a new home or office or renovating, SVI will work with your architect and electrician to design a lighting control system that not only enhances your lifestyle and saves energy but that also adds to the beauty of your living or work space. Lighting controls can both make the room you are in look better by controlling the lights as well as reduce wall clutter from multiple light switches.

Stereo & Video Integrators, Inc. proudly sells Lutron, Crestron and Savant lighting. Please contact SVI to discuss how we can make your life better!

Smart Lighting Control

Beautiful Lighting Made Simple

Lighting affects how your home looks, feels and functions. A professionally designed lighting-control system gives you convenient control over individual lights, groups of fixtures or your entire home while helping create the right atmosphere for every occasion.

Stereo & Video Integrators designs and installs smart lighting systems that are easy to operate and tailored to the way you live. Whether you are building a new home, renovating an existing space or upgrading traditional switches and dimmers, we can create a lighting solution that offers greater comfort, convenience and control.

Control Your Entire Home

A lighting-control system allows you to manage lights throughout your home from elegant wall controls, touchscreens, handheld remotes, mobile devices or a complete home-automation system.

Instead of walking from room to room turning off individual switches, you can adjust multiple lights with a single command.

Your system can provide:

Individual room control
Whole-home lighting control
Dimming and brightness adjustment
Mobile and remote access
Automatic schedules
Sunrise and sunset programming
Occupancy-based control
Integration with other smart-home systems

Whether you are at home or away, your lighting remains simple to manage.

Lighting Scenes

Lighting scenes allow multiple fixtures to adjust together with the touch of one button.

A scene can set each light to a predetermined level, making it easy to create the right environment without adjusting several dimmers individually.

Common lighting scenes include:

Welcome: Illuminates entrances, hallways and commonly used rooms when you arrive home
Entertain: Creates a warm and comfortable atmosphere for guests
Dinner: Adjusts kitchen and dining-room lighting for an evening meal
Movie: Dims surrounding lights while maintaining safe pathway lighting
Goodnight: Turns off common-area lights and adjusts selected bedroom and exterior fixtures
Away: Turns off unnecessary lighting when you leave the house
Vacation: Varies lighting activity to help make an unoccupied home appear lived in

Scenes can be customized around your home, schedule and personal preferences.

Elegant Keypads and Controls

A wall crowded with switches can be confusing and visually distracting.

Smart keypads can replace multiple traditional switches with a clean, organized control that makes frequently used functions easy to find. Buttons can be engraved and programmed for individual lights, rooms, scenes or whole-home commands.

Lighting controls are available in a wide selection of styles, finishes and colors to complement the design of your home.

Each keypad can be customized with clearly labeled functions such as:

Welcome
Entertain
Kitchen
All Off
Goodnight
Shades
Pathway
Exterior

The result is a system that looks refined and remains intuitive for family members and guests.

Automated Lighting

Your lighting can respond automatically to your daily routine.

Timers, astronomical clocks, occupancy sensors and smart-home programming allow lights to operate according to the time of day, sunrise and sunset, room activity or other conditions within your home.

Automated lighting can be used to:

Turn exterior lights on at sunset
Turn selected lights off after sunrise
Illuminate pathways at night
Switch off lights in unoccupied rooms
Adjust lighting at predetermined times
Provide a welcoming appearance before you arrive
Simulate occupancy while you are traveling
Respond to security or alarm events

Automation provides convenience without requiring you to interact with the system every time.

Lighting for New Construction

The best time to plan a complete lighting-control system is during the design of a new home.

Stereo & Video Integrators works with homeowners, builders, architects, interior designers and electricians to coordinate the system from the earliest stages of a project.

Planning ahead allows us to consider:

Fixture locations and lighting loads
Keypad and control placement
Centralized or distributed lighting architecture
Equipment-panel locations
Wiring and electrical requirements
Motorized-shade integration
Home-automation integration
Future expansion

Careful planning helps create a finished system that is reliable, organized and easy to use.

Lighting for Renovations and Existing Homes

Smart lighting is not limited to new construction.

Many traditional switches and dimmers can be replaced with intelligent controls without requiring a complete renovation. Depending on your home and project goals, we can upgrade one room, several important areas or the entire property.

Popular retrofit applications include:

Kitchens and family rooms
Primary bedrooms
Home theaters and media rooms
Dining and entertaining areas
Exterior and landscape lighting
Vacation and secondary homes
Additions and renovated spaces

Your system can begin with a focused area and expand over time as your needs change.

Interior, Exterior and Landscape Lighting

A complete system can provide consistent control across both indoor and outdoor spaces.

Exterior and landscape lighting can operate automatically according to sunset and sunrise, eliminating the need to adjust timers throughout the year. Lights can also be incorporated into welcome, entertaining, security and vacation scenes.

Control may include:

Entry and porch lighting
Driveway lighting
Architectural lighting
Landscape lighting
Patio and outdoor-living areas
Pool and spa areas
Pathway lighting
Seasonal and decorative lighting

With one system, you can manage the appearance and safety of your entire property.

Energy Management

Lighting control can help reduce unnecessary electricity use by ensuring lights operate only when and where they are needed.

Dimming, scheduling, occupancy detection and whole-home commands make it easier to avoid leaving lights on in empty rooms or throughout the house.

Energy-management features can include:

Automatic shutoff schedules
Occupancy and vacancy sensors
Daylight-responsive control
Preset maximum brightness levels
One-touch whole-home commands
Remote monitoring and adjustment

The system provides greater control over energy use without making your home less comfortable.

Integration with Motorized Shades

Lighting and natural daylight work best when they are considered together.

Smart lighting can be integrated with motorized window shades to manage daylight, privacy, glare and interior comfort throughout the day.

A single command can:

Dim the lights and lower the shades for a movie
Open the shades and adjust the lights in the morning
Reduce glare in a home office or television room
Close shades and illuminate interior spaces in the evening
Place the entire home into an away or vacation mode

Coordinating electric lighting with motorized shades creates a more comfortable and complete environment.

Integration with Your Smart Home

Lighting becomes even more useful when it works with the other systems in your home.

Stereo & Video Integrators can integrate lighting with:

For example, pressing one “Goodnight” button can turn off the lights, lower selected shades, adjust the temperature, lock supported doors and prepare the security system.

The goal is not to make your home more complicated. It is to make everyday functions easier.

Professional Design and Programming

A successful lighting-control system requires more than replacing switches.

Every system must be properly designed, installed and programmed around the electrical requirements of the home, the types of lighting fixtures being controlled and the way the homeowner wants to use each space.

Stereo & Video Integrators coordinates with your electrician or can work with qualified electrical professionals to help ensure that the lighting system is installed correctly.

Our services include:

System consultation and design
Lighting-load planning
Equipment selection
Electrical-trade coordination
Keypad and dimmer installation planning
Custom scene programming
Smart-home integration
Homeowner training
System upgrades and ongoing service

We personalize the system to fit both your home and your level of comfort with technology.
