Because a Control4 automation system makes it possible for virtually everything in your office or business to work together—from lights to thermostats, TVs to projectors, sound systems to security systems, and much more—your ideas of control can be as unique as your business. Just select any of the graphics below for ideas and examples of how intelligent automation can bring you and your business more comfort, convenience and peace of mind.

  • Lighting

    Maybe you'd like to make the perfect ambiance possible in every part of the office. Or perhaps you're just looking for a few easy ways to save energy. No matter what your intention, intelligent lighting with Control4 is always a bright idea. Here are just a few brilliant examples:

    • Have the lights turn off automatically when employees or guests leave rooms to save on energy bills.
    • Set lights in the waiting room to a warm, welcoming glow while lights in the surgical room are bright enough for business.
    • Program lights to dim automatically as the sun sets so your guests hardly notice a change and your team isn’t running around turning lights off manually.
    • Use a single “good night” or “good morning” button to make sure the building is closed down for the night or ready for business with the right security lights and the perfect temperature to keep energy bills low and your business safe.
    • Experience hands-free illumination when entering a dark hallway; motion sensors can make sure you never have to fumble around in the dark.
    • Set certain lights to a maximum level of 80%; your eyes won't notice the difference but your utility bill will!
    • Incorporate your lights into a “scene” that also cues the perfect music at the perfect sound level, changes the ambient temperature and gets everyone in the right mood.
