Crestron Award Winner — “Brilliant Lighting Control & Design”

This new build in the Derby countryside benefits from a full Crestron Audio Video, lighting, security and HVAC system. This project was the first in the UK to use Crestron’s dimmable LED fittings, providing a complete end-to-end solution. It won Custom Controls the Crestron Integration Award for Brilliant Lighting Control & Design — one of five consecutive Crestron Integration Award wins that earned the company its unique Dealer of Distinction status in EMEA.

Crestron Lighting — First UK Crestron LED Installation

Over 350 Crestron LED fittings — each using approximately 18 watts while producing the output of a 50-watt halogen downlight — are controlled by a Crestron CAEN lighting system across 200+ channels. Six distributed lighting racks provide redundancy and clean cabling throughout the property. The client calculated that the whole house now uses the same amount of energy on lighting as previously used by just the kitchen and dining room. Scene setting, scheduling and remote access are all available from wall touchpanels or iPad. The third-party HVAC system is seamlessly integrated, providing full authority over temperature and fan speed in any room, including underfloor heating, air conditioning and heat recovery units.

Crestron HD Audio Video Distribution

A full Crestron Digital Media HD distribution system using Cat6 cabling delivers HD audio and video to 16 display zones. Sky HD receivers, Sony 4K Blu-ray players, PS4s and Apple TVs are all centralised and distributed. The Crestron Sonnex multi-room audio system serves 24 audio zones, with room-grouping for parties and optional subwoofer channel assignment per room. SpeakerCraft in-ceiling speakers and Samsung TVs complete the system, all flawlessly controlled via CEC over HDMI.

Security, CCTV and Intercom

The high-end monitored security system is fully integrated with Crestron. A 15″ kitchen touchpanel provides multi-camera live and recorded CCTV viewing with pan-tilt-zoom control. Internal and external security sensors are shown on a touchpanel floorplan with automatic “follow the motion” camera logic. Gate intercom is distributed via TPS-6L touchpanels throughout the property — answering the door, viewing the gate camera and opening the gate from anywhere in the home.
