What makes a smart home truly intelligent? To us, one of the smartest—and most convenient—components that can be included in every smart home is
smart lighting. SimpliMation’s smart lighting solutions provide customers with benefits like
energy efficiency, added peace of mind, streamlined day-to-day activities, and automated actions, it is easy to see why. Or is it? What does
smart lighting entail?
It is not a fancy bulb or an app on your phone; although, those can certainly be part of it! It is the intertwining of the lighting in your home, the multiple functions you can create with them, and the ways in which you can control it all. SimpliMation gives the homeowner complete power over their lighting through keypads, voice assistants, an app, touchscreens, or a remote, that allows. You will be able to dim lights or change colours and hues in any (and every) room, turn individual fixtures or groups of lights on and off, and set a specific mood. A well-installed automation system from a Control4 Certified Installer like SimplImation will ensure that with just one action, set an entire scene that dims the kitchen lights to a certain percentage while the speakers start a playlist and the front door locks. The smartest thing about smart lighting is that it is more than just lighting.
How does SimpliMation Install Smart Lighting?
There are two main ways SimpliMation install smart lighting:
- The first is called “Centralized Lighting” which is used for homes in the new-build process or going through major renovations. This option connects the lights to a central location, similar to a breaker box, which is hardwired and connects to the smart home “brain” or controller.
- The second is called “Wireless Lighting” and is mainly used for retro-fitting. This option uses the same wires that run to your current lighting switches, but the regular switches are replaced by a smart switch or keypad and then communicate wirelessly to the “brain” or controller.

What can Smart Lighting do?
Conveniently placed lighting keypads allow you to turn off every light on your way out the door with one tap. As you arrive home, your garage door can trigger the entryway lights to lead your way into the house. Motion detectors brighten the hallway lights during the evening and throughout the night, making it easier to move about without disturbing the rest of the household. Smart lighting simplifies your daily routine—and even tasks that only happen every now and again—in an intuitive way easy enough for the whole family to use and enjoy.
