Automating your home is fun and exciting, and the possibilities are limited only by your imagination! Here are some of the options available for how to automate your home. Start out slowly, build onto your current automated house system, or incorporate all these systems into a new construction project!
Our entire automated home operates automatically when you program an intelligent controller to become the brains of your smart home. Control lighting, climate controls, entertainment components, irrigation, and any other systems in the Home Controls online catalog. After your automated house system is programmed, it operates on its own to decide what your home should do under various circumstances.
You can also manually control your automated home system with user-friendly keypads and touchscreens, and even through a smartphone or the Internet!
Turn lights on or off and dim or brighten them from anywhere, inside or outside your automated house, without running any new wires! It’s possible with powerline or RF/wireless control.
Program indoor and outdoor lights to turn on and off according to a schedule or event.
Automate light scenes entirely with one button push. For example, a keychain remote can initiate your “At Home” security mode and lighting scene, so you never again have to drive up to a dark home. Or your “Home Theater” scene might dim your lights, close the drapes, turn on entertainment components, and start the popcorn maker!

Control your lights and appliances with light sensors. If it gets dark, lights turn on and then off again a few hours later. When it gets light, automatically turn on your coffee pot and even your hair curlers.
Install an occupancy motion sensor in a room or hallway to have the lights turn on when someone enters, then off when the area is empty.
Sensors turn on outdoor lights when someone approaches. Turn on automated home lights when you’re driving up the driveway with a keychain remote.
