December 23, 2020
Are you looking to turn your neglected garage into an entertainment room? Or are you renovating your home to include the ultimate home cinema experience? Perhaps you want to enhance your family movie night with a few updates to your existing entertainment setup? New-build or renovation, SimpliMation can install the home cinema of your dreams, and here are 6 must-haves that we recommend for the perfect automated home cinema.
STADIUM SEATING WITH LED STEP LIGHTS
Many homeowners are installing stadium seating into their home cinemas to achieve optimal viewing pleasure, but what would stadium seating be without some LED step lights? Now you and your guests can enjoy a real movie cinema experience without tripping over steps in the dark. These lights can easily be tied into a home automation system so that they light up when the movie is paused.
If you want to hear the explosions and sweeping soundtracks of your favourite movies in all their booming splendour, be considerate to the rest of your family by soundproofing your home cinema. You can install sound-dampening materials in your walls, ceilings, and floors. Additionally, hanging drapes and curtains can help enhance the acoustics of your home cinema by absorbing sound that would normally bounce around.
You can control your cinema and home from one remote.

MOTORIZED PROJECTION SCREEN
Imagine a group of friends gathering in your home to watch a movie. Everyone settles in their comfy seats, waiting in anticipation for the movie to start. You casually press a single button on your remote control, and all at once the lights dim, your motorized projection screen lowers as if out of nowhere, and the movie begins.
IMMERSE YOURSELF IN 7.1 SURROUND SOUND
7.1 surround sound truly immerses you into the movie by encircling you with eight (eight!) separate speaker channels, or more speakers if you want that extra “Dolby Atmos” effect. You’ll feel like the movie is happening all around you: front to back, side to side, and top to bottom. SimpliMation can integrate 7.1 surround sound into your home cinema system with ease.
YOUR AUTOMATED HOME THEATER
Our favourite movies have the power to completely captivates their stories—an automated home cinema can take the cinematic experience to the next level. You’ll never want to watch a movie without home automation ever again!
