Working with Regent5

Planning Your Project

Can Regent5 manage both electrical work and home automation?

Yes. Our C10 electrical and C7 low-voltage capabilities bring power, lighting, motorized shades, automation, audiovisual, networking and security together through one team. We plan the infrastructure, carry out installation and programming, and provide ongoing service.

When should Regent5 join a custom-home project?

Ideally during preconstruction, while electrical capacity, lighting, shade pockets, equipment rooms and cable pathways are being planned. Early involvement helps the design and construction teams resolve details before installation begins. We also undertake major renovations and existing-home upgrades.

Do you work with architects, builders and owners’ representatives?

Yes. We collaborate with homeowners, architects, builders, electrical engineers, lighting designers, interior designers and owners’ representatives. Our role carries from early planning through installation, programming, commissioning, documentation and long-term service.

Can Regent5 service or upgrade an existing automation system?

Yes. We assess, service and modernize existing Savant, Control4, Vantage and Lutron systems, including homes with incomplete documentation or a previous integrator. For Crestron properties, we review the existing system before confirming the service we can provide.
