Ensure everything works seamlessly with a fully integrated home network.
With a modern home network, you can connect all your devices at the same time without any problems, allowing everything to run smoothly, effectively, and consistently.
We live in an electronic world now, and our homes are a part of that. From Netflix to Facebook, we are constantly downloading an incredible amount of information, and if there’s 4 or 5 people in a home, things can get confused.
Designer AV can install and configure Control4’s Pakedge Networking System for all your devices, with the option of adding more as time goes by.
Whether you are streaming a movie in one room, playing X-box in another, or Skyping with work from your office, everything runs smoothly and seamlessly with a Control4 state-of-the-art home network at the heart of it all.
A home network also allows you to connect all your devices together, so you can add to the family shopping list, play music from another device, or watch two things simultaneously in different rooms.
We provide full internal enterprise grade network gear for the entire house designed specifically for a modern smart home. From cameras, intercoms, movies or music, our fully integrated network ensures seamless Wifi coverage over the entire home.
“The Control4 system Derek installed has surpassed our expectations. The interactivity and flexibility could not have been any simpler, and our wireless internet network has been superb, with full strenght anywhere in the house.”
— STUART AND JULIE HELLYER, WHITFORD
Smart homes, home automation - call it what you will but there is a revolution going on in the homes of New Zealand, and Designer AV are the team to bring this technology to you.
Derek Crane is one of New Zealand’s leading experts in home automation.
With a background in electrical engineering, Derek has always had a passion for audio, and it was through installing Hi-Fi equipment that he eventually progressed into home automation.
From those early days installing home audio, as the technology grew, so did Derek’s skills. With the advent of WiFi and smartphones, technology had finally caught up with the dream of an automated home, opening the door to a world of convenience, ease, and simplicity.
Back in the day, there were very few people who were offering full home automation, and with his background as a Sparky, Derek was one of the few people in the country who could understand and install the emerging technology.
From the beginning, Derek understood the potential in having all your devices work together in a seamless arrangement. Lighting, heating, video, music, and security can all be controlled with the touch of a button, from the sofa or the other side of the world, keeping your family warm and safe.
A decade of experience
For the past decade, Derek and his wife Michelle have been helping people get the most out of their technology and experiencing safer, smarter living through home automation.
They pride themselves on exceeding the expectations of clients, and to make sure their products are up to the task, they test all the equipment in their own home first before suggesting it to clients.
Smarter homes
Derek is one of the most respected and trusted names in the business, and together with his team of industry-leading home automation specialists, he transforms modern Kiwi homes into wonders of modern technology and convenience.
Once you have experienced the mind-blowing daily life of a fully automated home, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.
