Crestron has been building control systems since 1971, and it’s what most serious integrators reach for when a project has to run lighting, climate, audio, video, and security as one. The hardware is only half of it. A Crestron system gets custom-programmed for the building it goes in, which means the dealer who designs and writes that code matters as much as the gear on the rack. Pick the wrong installer and you get an expensive system that half-works. Pick a certified one and you get something built around how you actually live or run the space, with a real team on the hook to support it for years.
We’ve held Crestron Partner status since 2010 – and not an easy one to keep. In that time we’ve designed and installed systems for waterfront estates, high-rise condos, penthouses, law-firm boardrooms, and multi-dwelling buildings across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach.
Because we’re local, when something needs attention a technician who already knows your project can get there.
A certified dealer has been through Crestron’s training, keeps those certifications current, and has a direct line to Crestron’s engineering support when a job needs it. Here’s what that actually buys you:
The gap between a certified dealer and a general installer shows up later. When a firmware update changes something, when you want to add a feature, or when a component dies at 9pm before a dinner party, you want the people who designed the system answering the phone.
In a high-end home, the system pulls lighting, climate, audio, video, shades, and security under one interface – the same UI Crestron built with Apple, so it feels familiar the first time you pick it up. We design whole-home control for large single-family estates, multi-floor condos, and penthouses where the zoning gets genuinely complicated.
Down here the equipment has to survive salt air, humidity, and summer lightning. We spec weather-rated components for the outdoor zones, design real grounding and surge protection, and build the system to keep running through the conditions that take down cheaper installs.
In a boardroom, a hotel, or an MDU amenity space, the system has to work every single time and survive a lot of different hands. Crestron does that, and it scales from one huddle room to a full campus of conference spaces.
We’ve put these systems into corporate boardrooms, hotels, MDU common areas, and mixed-use buildings across the region, and we build each one so the people using it day to day never have to think about it.
Boats are their own problem. Sealed, compact, vibration-tolerant gear that runs entertainment, lighting, climate, and security across the salon, staterooms, and deck, without spoiling a finished interior. We design these systems with the same care for custom wiring and wireless backup we bring on land, plus what only marine work demands: saltwater corrosion, constant vibration, and power that comes and goes. See our yacht AV systems.
South Florida runs on a few platforms – Crestron, Control4, Savant, and others – and each has a point of view. We work across them and recommend whatever fits the project. When Crestron is the call, it’s usually for these reasons:
We’ve gone deeper on the tradeoffs in Savant vs Crestron and in why we recommend Crestron. The honest answer is that the right platform depends on the project, and our job is to call that correctly before you spend the money.
Every job moves through three phases.
Design. We start with how you actually use the space – house, conference center, or yacht – then spec the products that fit, lay out the system architecture, and plan the wiring before anyone installs anything. When an architect, designer, or builder is involved, we get into the drawings early so the infrastructure is part of the build, not an afterthought. Here’s how we work with design and build partners.
Installation. Our certified techs handle wiring, mounting, programming, and commissioning to Crestron’s standards and our own checks, so it runs right on day one instead of after three service calls.
Support. Systems need the occasional adjustment, and firmware keeps moving. Our service agreements cover monitoring, updates, and a real person to call. More on care and support.
We run two locations, one in Miami and one in Hollywood, which lets us cover the major markets without a half-day drive to every site.
Two offices means faster response, technicians who know the local codes, and a team that’s actually around when you need someone on site. See all service areas.
We do our best work when we’re in early, at the design phase rather than the punch list. Brought in then, the infrastructure disappears into the architecture instead of fighting it.
