Smart Home Technology Designed Around How You Live

Regent5 brings electrical design, home automation and ongoing service together for custom homes and private estates. Whether you are building, renovating or updating an existing home, we work with you and your design team to shape lighting, shades and connected technology around the architecture and your daily life.

Design, Electrical, Low Voltage, Programming and Service

A connected home crosses trades. Lighting circuits affect control, shade motors need power, cameras and keypads depend on the network, and AV depends on both infrastructure and programming. Regent5 carries projects from consultation and drawings through installation, commissioning, training and long-term support.

Compare Savant, Control4, Crestron, Vantage and Lutron Before You Commit

Platform choice is personal. At the Regent5 Showroom & Design Center, homeowners can compare automation interfaces, Lutron lighting and shading, keypads, security and audio before specification. We consider the controls you will touch, the light you will live with and the support you will need, then develop the installation around those choices.

Build the Connected Home on a Reliable Network Backbone

Streaming, cameras, voice control, phones, lighting gateways and remote support all depend on the network. We design structured wiring, fiber where appropriate, managed switching and Wi-Fi coverage around the actual property rather than relying on consumer-grade assumptions.

Coordinate Lighting and Motorized Shades as Part of the Architecture

Lutron HomeWorks, Ketra and motorized window treatments can make daylight, electric light, privacy and nighttime scenes work together. Early planning also keeps shade pockets, keypads and fixtures visually clean instead of forcing compromises after finishes are complete.

Protect the Property, the Network and the Systems You Depend On

Security is more than cameras. Gates, access control, intrusion, surveillance, network protection, backup power and remote monitoring should work together so the property remains secure, serviceable and resilient.

Choose the Service Relationship Along With the Technology

After commissioning, the system should remain documented, maintainable and adaptable. Regent5 provides homeowner training, remote-management options, ongoing service and future upgrades so the relationship is designed to outlast the initial installation.

Northern California Custom Homes and Private Estates

Regent5 supports custom homes and private estates throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California. Design, construction, commissioning and long-term service stay coordinated under one team. Select project coverage extends through Santa Barbara, Los Angeles and Orange County.

The Systems Behind a Complete Connected Home

A coordinated scope for custom homes and private estates where electrical, technology, security, entertainment and service need to operate as one environment.

Automation

Savant, Control4 and Crestron control for lighting, shades, AV, climate, security and everyday scenes.

Lighting & Shades

Lutron HomeWorks, Ketra, keypads, roller shades and drapery coordinated with architecture and interiors.

Networking & Wi-Fi

Structured wiring, fiber, managed switching, access points and secure remote management for estate-scale connectivity.

Security & Access

Cameras, gates, intercoms, locks, intrusion and owner-controlled access workflows coordinated with the network.

Audio & Video

Whole-home music, televisions, concealed displays, media rooms and outdoor entertainment designed around the residence.

Electrical & Energy

Service upgrades, lighting power, EV charging, generators, batteries and critical-load coordination under a C10 scope.

Private Cinema & Media

Dedicated theaters, media rooms, projection, acoustics and high-performance audio integrated with lighting and control.

Outdoor Living Technology

Landscape audio, outdoor displays, Wi-Fi, lighting, heaters, shades and control extended beyond the main residence.

Backup Power & Resilience

Generators, battery storage, UPS protection and critical technology loads planned so essential systems remain available.

Long-Term Service & Support

Commissioning, homeowner training, documentation, remote diagnostics and planned upgrades after construction is complete.

Technology for Northern California Custom Homes and Private Estates

Regent5 supports custom residential projects throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California, coordinating C10 electrical and C7 low-voltage systems from planning through commissioning and long-term service. Select project coverage extends through Santa Barbara, Los Angeles and Orange County.

Questions to Ask Before Choosing a Smart-Home Partner

Is Regent5 full-service or installation-only?

Full-service: consultation, design documentation, electrical and low-voltage installation, programming, commissioning, training and ongoing service. Regent5 holds California C10 and C7 licenses.

Which automation platforms do you install?

Regent5 works with Savant, Control4, Crestron and Vantage, plus Lutron lighting and shading. We are deliberately multi-platform so the system can be matched to the homeowner, the property and the project requirements.

Can I see the systems before choosing?

Yes. Regent5’s showroom and design center lets homeowners compare automation, lighting, shades, keypads, security and audio in person before specification.

Can you integrate devices I already own?

Often, depending on compatibility and reliability. We review what is worth keeping, what should be replaced and what could undermine the larger system before it becomes a service problem.

How does pricing work?

An accurate proposal follows an actual design. Regent5 defines scope, assumptions and system priorities from the property and project goals rather than quoting a generic package that may not fit the home.

How is a low-voltage and technology budget established before every product is selected?

Preconstruction budgeting should begin with performance and infrastructure rather than a premature shopping list. Regent5 can define system scope, identify non-deferrable pathways, wiring, equipment-room, network, security, lighting-control and power requirements, establish allowances for major system categories, and separate core infrastructure from options that can be phased or value-engineered as design decisions mature.

When is the best time to involve Regent5 in a new home or major remodel?

Early design and preconstruction are ideal, before framing, lighting, millwork, shade pockets and equipment-room decisions are locked. Existing homes can also be evaluated for retrofit paths based on access, infrastructure and the systems being upgraded.

Can one control system operate lighting, shades, climate, audio video and security?

Often, yes. The exact experience depends on the selected automation platform and supported integrations, but Regent5 can design a unified interface for compatible lighting, shades, climate, media and security functions while preserving reliable local control.

How do you design reliable Wi-Fi for a large or multi-building property?

Reliable coverage starts with the wired backbone. Regent5 plans equipment locations, switching, access points, Cat6A or fiber links, network segmentation and outdoor or detached-building coverage around the property instead of relying on a few consumer wireless devices.

What happens to the smart home when the internet goes down?

A well-designed system can keep many local functions available even during an internet outage, depending on the selected products and integrations. Redundant internet, UPS protection and backup-power priorities can also be planned where continuity matters.

Can the system be simple for guests, children and household staff?

Yes. Regent5 can simplify daily operation with clear keypads, room-based remotes, scenes, schedules and role-appropriate access so common tasks do not require opening several apps or understanding the underlying equipment.

What support is available after the project is completed?

Closeout can include commissioning, documentation and owner or staff training. Ongoing remote monitoring, troubleshooting, software maintenance and on-site service can be structured around the systems and service plan selected for the property.
