Smart Home Automation in NYC, Designed Around Your Life
One Home, Effortlessly Under Your Control
Imagine a home that responds to you — lights, climate, security, entertainment, and shades working together with a single tap, keypad, or voice command. Nex AV designs and installs smart home automation across NYC, tailored to how your household lives, making everyday life more convenient, secure, and efficient.
What Is Home Automation and How Does It Work?
Home automation connects the systems in your home — lighting, climate, security, audio, video, and motorized shades — into one intelligent network you control from a phone, tablet, keypad, or your voice. Instead of juggling a dozen separate apps and remotes, everything works together through a central smart home hub. Set a single scene and the lights dim, the shades lower, the temperature adjusts, and your music starts — automatically. A professionally installed home automation system is reliable, secure, and built to grow, adding rooms and devices whenever you’re ready.
Why Choose Nex AV for Home Automation
Choose Nex AV for expert installation, seamless integration, and a smart home built around you. As a certified installer working with leading platforms like Control4, we design systems that are genuinely easy for your whole family to use. We specialise in the realities of NYC properties: concealed wiring in prewar walls and brownstones, co-op and condo board approvals, dense-building Wi-Fi, and clean finishes that satisfy designers and architects. From the first consultation to long-term support, our team makes sure everything works perfectly.
What We Offer
We design and install smart home automation that gives you complete control over your home on one easy-to-use platform, built to grow with your needs.
Smart Home Automation Systems
Control lighting, climate, audio, video, and security from one platform — app, keypad, or voice — instead of a dozen separate apps.
Whole House Automation
Every room connected and controlled from anywhere: adjust the thermostat, dim the lights, lock doors, or check cameras from your phone.
Home Automation Installation
Certified installation done right for NYC homes — concealed wiring, co-op approvals, clean finishes, and hands-on training at handover.
Smart Home Integration
We integrate the top smart devices — lights, locks, thermostats, cameras, and entertainment. If it’s smart, we can connect it.
Smart Home Automation Built for NYC Homes
New York homes come with challenges off-the-shelf gadgets can’t handle — and that’s exactly what we’re built for. Prewar plaster walls and landmarked brownstones need careful, concealed wiring. Co-op and condo boards require proper documentation and scheduling. Dense buildings kill consumer Wi-Fi, so we install robust networks that keep every device connected. Floor-to-ceiling windows? Motorized shades stop glare and heat without lifting a finger. Whether it’s a compact apartment, a high-rise condo, or a full townhouse across Manhattan, Brooklyn, or Queens, we design automation that fits the space, the building, and how you actually live.
What We Can Automate in Your Home
A complete smart home brings your key systems together. We design and integrate each one to work on its own and as part of the whole — controlled from a single, intuitive interface.
Lighting & Motorized Shades
Smart lighting scenes and quiet Lutron motorized shades that adjust to the time of day and cut glare automatically.
Climate & Energy
Smart thermostats and schedules that keep every room comfortable while lowering energy use and utility bills.
Security & Cameras
Cameras, smart locks, sensors, and alarms in one view, with remote monitoring and alerts wherever you are.
Audio, Video & Networking
Whole-home audio, home theater, and a rock-solid network — the backbone every smart home needs.
Our Home Automation Process
From first plan to long-term support, we make installing a smart home simple — coordinating with your building and keeping disruption to a minimum. Most installs take one to three weeks depending on scope.
Consultation & Design
A free consultation and site survey, then a clear system design and itemized proposal matched to your priorities and budget.
Installation & Programming
Certified installation, clean wiring, and custom programming — scenes, schedules, and interfaces built around your routines.
Training & Handover
We test everything, then walk your household through the system so day one feels easy for everyone.
Ongoing Support
Updates, fine-tuning, and responsive local support keep your system running smoothly as your needs change.
The Platforms We Work With
We’re vendor-neutral, so we recommend the system that fits your home and budget rather than a one-size-fits-all box. We design and program leading smart home platforms — including Control4 for whole-home integration and Lutron for lighting and shades — and integrate best-in-class devices for security, climate, audio, and video into one seamless experience.

How Much Does Home Automation Cost In NYC?
Cost depends on home size, the systems you connect, and whether wiring is new or retrofit. After a consultation and site survey, we provide a clear, itemized proposal with no surprise fees.
How Long Does Installation Take?
Most home automation installations in NYC take one to three weeks, depending on system complexity and your building’s requirements. We give a schedule in your proposal.

Yes. We work throughout NYC’s buildings — preparing co-op and condo documentation, handling prewar wiring, and coordinating around building rules.
Will It Work With Devices I Already Own?
In most cases, yes. Leading platforms integrate thousands of third-party devices, so much of your existing gear can join the system. We confirm compatibility during the survey.
