Who installs Lutron lighting and shades in Queens?

Nex AV designs, installs and programs Lutron lighting control and motorized shades across Queens, including Long Island City, Astoria, Forest Hills and Jackson Heights. We install HomeWorks, RadioRA 3 and Caséta systems with Palladiom, Sivoia QS and Triathlon shades. Every project starts with a free on-site survey and an itemized proposal, and we prepare any paperwork your condo board requires.

Where we work in Queens

Newer Buildings, Easier Runs

Queens has some of the friendliest housing stock in the city for lighting control. Here is what we usually find in each neighborhood.

01

Long Island City

New-build condo towers

Floor-to-ceiling glass facing Manhattan, which makes solar shades and scene control part of everyday living.

02

Astoria

Condos and converted buildings

Newer buildings that often wire easily, with condo boards that expect alteration paperwork.

03

Forest Hills

Single-family homes

More freedom on cable routing, plus better options for outdoor lighting on schedules.

04

Jackson Heights

Co-ops and prewar buildings

Older walls where wireless keypads and battery shades avoid opening plaster.

Conduit may already be in your walls

Long Island City and Astoria condo buildings often have conduit already in place. When we spot it during the survey, it lowers installation cost considerably, because cable can be pulled instead of routed through finished walls.

Motorized shades

Shades for Queens Windows

From skyline glass in Long Island City to bedroom windows in Forest Hills, there is a Lutron shade for every opening.

Solar shades

Cut glare and heat while keeping the skyline or the street view. The everyday shade for living rooms and kitchens with big windows.

Keeps the viewCuts glareSun schedules

Blackout shades

Full darkness for bedrooms and media rooms, often paired with a solar shade on the same window so you can switch between the two.

BedroomsMedia roomsDual shades

Battery shades for finished rooms

Lutron Triathlon and Serena shades run on batteries, so finished apartments and co-ops can be motorized without opening walls.

  • Certificates of insurance
  • Licensed and insured contractor documents
  • Work scheduled to permitted hours
  • Noise and dust mitigation plans

FAQ

Queens Lutron Questions

Do you install Lutron lighting and shades in Queens?

Yes. Nex AV designs, installs and programs Lutron lighting control and motorized shades across Queens, including Long Island City, Astoria, Forest Hills and Jackson Heights.

Is the site survey free in Queens?

Yes. Surveys across Queens are free, with no obligation to proceed. We measure windows, check wiring and any existing conduit, and recommend the right system before sending a proposal.

Can Lutron be installed in a condo without opening walls?

Yes. RadioRA 3 keypads and Triathlon battery shades are designed for finished homes. In many Long Island City and Astoria buildings, existing conduit also makes wired runs much easier.

Will you handle our condo or co-op board paperwork?

Yes. We prepare alteration agreement submissions, certificates of insurance and contractor documentation, and schedule work around permitted building hours.

Which Lutron system is right for my apartment?

Caséta suits a few rooms, RadioRA 3 gives whole-home control without opening walls, and HomeWorks suits larger homes where every room and shade is controlled. We recommend one after the survey.

Does Lutron work with Control4 and voice control?

Yes. RadioRA 3 and HomeWorks integrate with Control4, so lights and shades sit on the same remote and touchscreen as the rest of the home, and Josh.ai adds natural voice control.

How long does a Lutron installation take?

Most projects run one to three weeks depending on scope and access. Custom shade fabrics and board approvals can affect the start date, which we confirm in the proposal.

Can you do outdoor lighting at a Forest Hills house?

Yes. Single-family homes give more freedom on cable routing, so driveway, garden and path lighting can run on Lutron schedules and turn on automatically at dusk.
