Luxury Smart Home Automation for Custom Homes

Regent5 designs and integrates advanced smart home automation systems for custom homes, estates, and architect-driven residential projects. Our automation platforms unify lighting, climate control, entertainment systems, security, and energy management into one intuitive environment that simplifies everyday living. Rather than treating smart home technology as a collection of devices, Regent5 designs automation systems as part of the home’s infrastructure. We coordinate electrical systems, lighting control, motorized shading, security systems, and audio-video technology into a single intelligent platform. Our systems are built around industry-leading automation platforms including Savant home automation, Control4 home automation, and Lutron lighting control systems.

Unified Control for the Entire Home

A professionally designed smart home system allows homeowners to control multiple technologies through a single, reliable interface. Lighting scenes, automated shades, climate control, entertainment systems, security, and energy systems can all be managed from wall keypads, mobile devices, or voice interfaces. Regent5 integrates smart home automation platforms that provide seamless control across the entire property while maintaining the reliability and stability required for modern residences.

Lighting is one of the most important components of a smart home environment. Regent5 integrates Lutron lighting control systems that allow homeowners to create lighting scenes that adjust throughout the day.

Lutron systems can control architectural lighting, decorative lighting, and outdoor lighting while integrating with automated shading systems.
We also install Lutron motorized shades, including advanced shading solutions that automatically adjust based on sunlight, time of day, or user preferences. Lutron lighting and shading systems create environments that improve comfort, energy efficiency, and the overall experience of the home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I control my home automation system when I'm away from the property?

Yes. Both Savant and Control4 support remote access through a mobile app, allowing homeowners to view cameras, adjust climate, and control lighting and shades from anywhere with an internet connection.

What can I automate in my home?

Some of the most popular and useful automation features include:

  1. Smart lighting
  2. Automatic door locks and garage door openers
  3. Smart security cameras and alarm systems
  4. Automated blinds and shades
  5. Smart heating and cooling
  6. Whole-home audio and video systems
  7. App-based control for music, lighting, shades, security, and more

What's the difference between Savant and Control4?

Savant is built on an Apple-based ecosystem with a particularly polished, design-forward interface, and does not require a monthly subscription for remote access. Control4 runs on its own platform and is often chosen for its breadth of device integrations and built-in video intercom capability. Regent5 installs both and helps select the platform that best matches the home's design priorities and existing device ecosystem.

Can an existing home be automated, or does it require new construction?

Existing homes can be automated. Wireless and low-voltage retrofit options exist for lighting, shading, and climate control. A system planned during new construction or a remodel does allow for cleaner wiring and broader integration, but retrofitting an existing home is common and well supported.

How does a home automation system handle a power outage or network drop?

Whole-home platforms are typically paired with backup power for the network and control processors. Many core functions, including lighting keypads, continue operating locally even if the internet connection drops, since keypads communicate directly with the lighting system rather than routing every command through the cloud.

What equipment goes into a whole-house automation system?

A whole-house system is built from a small number of platforms rather than a collection of individual devices. The control layer is Savant or Control4, running on a rack-mounted processor that the rest of the house reports to.

Lighting is Lutron HomeWorks QSX on new construction, or RadioRA 3 where the job is a retrofit and we are working within existing walls. Ketra fixtures go in where color rendering matters, such as galleries, kitchens, and rooms with significant art. Shading is Lutron Palladiom or Sivoia, with Conrad fabrics on custom drapery.

The network underneath all of it is enterprise-grade and wired to every device that can accept a cable, because most automation faults that present as software problems are network problems. Surveillance is Verkada, Deep Sentinel, or UniFi, selected on whether the property needs cloud management or local recording. Entry is 2N, DoorBird, or a UniFi intercom.

Audio and video, climate, and access control all terminate on the same control platform, so the house behaves as one system rather than a set of apps.
