Smart Technology Services in St. Louis Park, MN

Our team stays ahead of the curve with ongoing training in the latest industry advancements, allowing us to deliver cutting-edge technology solutions tailored to your specific needs. With a full range of capabilities, we craft customized systems that enhance comfort, convenience, and performance.

Consultation

To design the perfect technology solution, we begin by understanding your unique needs and expectations. Every project starts with an in-depth consultation, where we assess how you use your space and identify opportunities for technology integration. We take a room-by-room approach, often conducting on-site evaluations to ensure our recommendations align with your lifestyle or business requirements. From smart automation services to AV integration, we provide expert guidance on the best solutions for your space in the Twin Cities and beyond.

Design & Engineering

Once project specifications are finalized, we translate them into a comprehensive system design. Our team outlines precise hardware selections, cost estimates, and labor requirements for a seamless execution. Using advanced Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software, we develop detailed blueprints that guide our technicians and trade partners. These plans include critical details on low-voltage wiring, lighting load configurations, rack layouts, and control system placements for a flawless integration.

Project Specification

After the initial needs assessment, we create a structured project specification that aligns with your budget and performance expectations. This document provides a clear, room-by-room breakdown of the systems being installed, detailing features for lighting, audio, video, and networking. Whether determining optimal Wi-Fi coverage areas or selecting motorized shading solutions, we make sure every aspect of your system is carefully planned. Before moving forward, we review the specifications with you and refine them based on your input.

Lighting Design

A well-executed lighting design enhances both the functionality and ambiance of a home. Our experts craft layered lighting solutions based on how each space is used, carefully selecting fixtures and placement to achieve the perfect balance. Overhead fixtures provide general illumination, sconces add depth and warmth, and task lighting enhances usability in workspaces or display areas. We also group lighting into specific control zones—such as an “Artwork” setting—to allow seamless adjustments from a single switch or dimmer.

System Documentation

Thorough documentation is the foundation of a smooth installation process. Our CAD drawings and engineering plans provide a detailed roadmap, allowing all technology components to be integrated correctly and on schedule. These documents specify everything from wiring infrastructure and device locations to power requirements and rack elevations. We also share this information with property managers, architects, and designers, ensuring every stakeholder is aligned throughout the project.

Programming & System Configuration

A technology system is only as powerful as its programming. Seamless integration guarantees that your lighting, audio, video, security, and automation systems communicate effortlessly. Our expert programmers craft intuitive control interfaces designed to match your project’s needs, whether through touchscreens, keypads, remotes, or smart devices. No two projects are alike, so we customize each interface to deliver a streamlined, user-friendly experience tailored to your space.

Commissioning for Peak Performance

We are committed to delivering technology solutions that function exactly as planned. Our commissioning services verify that every system—lighting, automation, security, sensors, and AV components—is installed and calibrated to meet original design specifications. If your project requires LEED or ASHRAE certifications, our team ensures compliance through meticulous audits. While commissioning is essential for new construction, we also offer retro-commissioning and recommissioning to optimize and upgrade existing facilities.

Expert Implementation

With engineering plans finalized, our team moves into the installation phase. We begin with conduit placement, low-voltage wiring, and enclosures, creating a solid foundation for your system. From there, we install displays, keypads, speakers, and other components with precision, following manufacturer guidelines and industry best practices. Our certified technicians adhere strictly to approved designs, guaranteeing an intuitive and reliable system that meets your exact specifications.

Performance Calibration & Fine-Tuning

To unlock the full potential of your AV system, expert calibration is essential. Using industry-leading tools, we meticulously optimize speaker placement and settings to enhance imaging, soundstage clarity, and bass response. Our certified professionals also fine-tune video performance by adjusting color balance, contrast, and sharpness, ensuring the best possible viewing experience for your space and intended application.

Lighting Control System Design

Transform your space with intelligent lighting control that enhances comfort, efficiency, and ambiance. Our designers create layered lighting schemes that blend overhead, accent, and task lighting to achieve the perfect atmosphere for any occasion. Each fixture is grouped into customized zones, allowing intuitive control via keypads, dimmers, and automated presets. Just imagine a “Goodnight” scene that gradually dims the lights and lowers motorized shades at the touch of a button. We provide detailed system documentation outlining panel locations, wiring layouts, and control interfaces for seamless operation.
