PRE CONSTRUCTION PLANNING WILL HELP ALL YOUR FUTURE PLANS!!!
With the proper wiring in place, you can control systems all over your smart home. All Low Voltage wiring is a very important aspect of your home construction.

We use only top quality professional cable to ensure the best system communication and professional results. Always thinking for the future; that’s why we provide extra wiring for future use or upgrade.
Become Future Ready! It’s true that we can’t plan for everything. We do, however, know what types of wiring will be most useful. Pre-wiring also allows homeowners a little room for growth. Perhaps you don’t want surveillance cameras, distributed video or speakers in certain rooms (right now), but with the proper wiring in place you can add them in a snap. Some of the home systems that require pre-wiring are security; home theater and entertainment; phones, door-phones and intercoms; PC and internet networks; surveillance cameras; driveway vehicle detection; communicating thermostats; motorized window treatments; entry systems; and irrigation systems.
If you’re considering opting out of pre-wiring based on the wide availability of wireless devices today, remember that, despite industry pushes toward standardization, many wireless devices still use proprietary communication protocols, making them incompatible with other manufacturer’s products. Partly for this reason, most home systems products are designed with structured wiring in mind. Remember also that pre-wiring is a permanent upgrade to your home, increasing its value at sale time.
Heating/Air Conditioning, Lighting and Door Locks become integrated with the security systems and allow the home owner to remote monitor and manage temperature, lighting and door locks from inside the home or via the internet or smart phone app.
Television wiring and distribution though out the home will let you share and view HDTV Set Top Boxes, Streaming Media devices, Media Servers, Apple TV, Netflix, DVD Players, VCR’s and Security Cameras to be displayed on various TV’s and Monitors in the house.
Whole house audio integration allows iPods, iPads, Central Media Servers, PC’s & Macs to be accessed on all stereo devices in the home or independently on specific stereo systems in each room or zone.
Maybe you’re not interested in a fully functional smart home, but the next person buying your house could be. When buyers are making the tough decision about which house to buy, the home that gives them flexibility and options for home theater, communications and security needs will show better than non-wired comparable homes. Smart homes are increasingly more desirable and tend to sell faster for above market value.
Pre-wiring for a smart home not only hides cables, it allows you to create a centralized hub. You can stack and store equipment, like AV receivers and amplifiers, in one place. Better yet, you can have it all conveniently located in a closet or cabinet that is out of sight.
You can retrofit a home with wiring. It’s not an incredibly complicated process, but you may have to open up walls to get the job done. If repairing drywall and repainting is not high on your priority list, consider running the wires before those walls go up.
The benefits of pre-wiring is not just what will it do for me today but what will it ALLOW me to do in the future! Once your home is pre-wired there is no need to rewire when you add new systems, services, electronics, technology and components. With the right infrastructure in place adding and changing devices and services is easy and cost effective.
