Discover Ideal Illumination with Whole-Home Lighting Control
Effortless and Elegant Lighting for Your Home
Did you know that the toggle light switch was invented in the early 1900s? Before its arrival, turning on lights was extremely inconvenient. At the same time, the Ford Model T automobile was gaining popularity. It was the first mass-affordable car with a top speed of 45 mph. If you’re still using a light switch, it’s a little like still driving a Ford Model T—historically significant, but far from the technological wonders of today.
Today’s whole-home lighting control has transformed how we illuminate our homes. From voice control to automated scheduling and curated lighting scenes available on custom-engraved keypads, creating the ideal ambiance is effortless.

Managed From Anywhere
Life and the plans surrounding it change at a moment’s notice. One minute, you’re settling down to get some work done in your home office, and the next, you’re rushing out the front door, remembering an almost-forgotten appointment. Meanwhile, you accidentally leave all the lights on at home, raising your electricity bill. Sound familiar?
Now, you can manage your home from anywhere. By pulling up an app on a mobile device, you can turn off every light and lower every motorized shade, reducing energy consumption and maintaining privacy. When night falls, you can brighten the entryway and landscape lights, ensuring you arrive at a well-lit home.
As you can see, these systems manage more than electric light. They also control the natural light that streams through your windows, dimming light fixtures when the shades are raised.
As Effortless as Asking
When you come home at night, hands laden with bags, instead of fumbling for the light switch, you can ask your smart home to turn on the lights for you. When cooking, ask the undercabinet lights to turn on for better task lighting. When settling down for dinner, ask the shades to lower for privacy.
Transformation at the Touch of a Button
At Audio Video Extremes, we’ll program elegant, custom-engraved, backlit keypads with saved lighting scenes for various activities. Whether entertaining, dining, relaxing, or watching a movie, pressing one button delivers the ideal illumination throughout your home.
Automated for Life
Smart lighting becomes intelligent when it’s automated to suit your lifestyle. This may translate to shades that automatically rise at dawn and lights that slowly illuminate as you wake. In the kitchen, soft lighting creates an inviting atmosphere for your first cup of coffee and tea. Shades rising in perfect synchronicity create elegance and charm, bringing the beauty of daylight indoors.
Automated for Safety and Security
When integrated with motion sensors, your lights illuminate dark hallways for easy navigation. If your little ones wake up in the middle of the night and head to your bedroom, a soft trail of lights leads the way. When motion is detected by the back door in the middle of the night, smart sensors differentiate between animals and people and turn on the flood light to deter intruders.
Integrating outdoor lighting sets the scene for alfresco dining, pool parties, or garden soirees, all with one tap. As dusk descends, outdoor stairs, pathway, and landscape lights automatically turn on, creating a safe and beautiful passage.
