The smart-home experience

Your whole home, in the palm of your hand.

Every home we integrate runs on Control4, the platform that ties lighting, climate, security, entertainment, shades and energy into one interface. One app, one keypad, one touchscreen, the same experience whether you're in the room or across the world.

Set a scene and the whole home responds at once: Good Morning lifts the shades and warms the lights, Movie dims the room and drops the screen, Away locks up, arms the alarm and steps the climate back.
