Estate Controls

For builders, architects & designers

Low-voltage that keeps your schedule.

Estate Controls plans and installs theaters, lighting control, shades, audio, home control and networking for custom and spec homes around Austin. We work from your plan set, pre-wire before insulation, and stay off the critical path.

Building spec homes, or more than one house with us? Ask about builder terms, set up for the builders we work with again and again.

What you get back

A

A marked-up plan set

Speakers, keypads, shade pockets, screen walls, rack location and conduit, drawn on your sheets so trades see one plan.

B

Dates that fit framing

A pre-wire window between framing and insulation, confirmed with your super. A rough-in walk before we pull a single cable.

C

Documented rough-in

Every run labeled and photographed before insulation, so nothing is a mystery once the walls close.

D

One point of contact

The same people from plan markup through trim, programming and the homeowner walkthrough.

Why early matters

Shade pockets have to be framed. Theater risers, screen walls and speaker baffles change carpentry. Rack ventilation changes HVAC. When we see the plans first, those decisions are made once, on paper, instead of in a change order.

We take on one or two homes at a time, so when we commit to a pre-wire date, we keep it.

  4. Trim, program, hand off

We design and install Control4 and Lutron systems. We don’t install security, alarm or camera systems, and we don’t do standalone TV mounting.

Send us a plan set.

Tell us about the project and the stage it’s at. We’ll set a time to walk the plans with you, and talk through builder terms for spec and repeat work.
