Before the proposal

What decides your project

The inputs that size the work, then what a proposal includes and what you supply.

  1. Wired or wireless?

    Open walls take the wired system; finished walls take the wireless line, which swaps switches and adds keypads without opening anything.

  2. How many rooms at once?

    One room, the main floor, or the whole house. The load schedule sizes the panel; rooms can be added later against the same design.

  3. Standard dimming or tunable?

    Tunable fixtures earn their cost in rooms with little daylight and where finishes shift under different color temperature. Elsewhere standard dimming is the better spend.

  4. Standalone or joined to a controller?

    Lighting runs on its own with no controller in the closet, and the same system joins a Control4 or Savant platform later without being replaced. Room count sets the scope; wall conditions guide the installation method.

    One room where the switch wall is the problem — usually a kitchen, primary suite, or great room.

    • Wireless Lutron dimmers on the room's controlled loads
    • One engraved keypad replacing the switch bank
    • Three to five scenes set at the right time of day
    • Pico remotes where a second control point is wanted

    • Keypads engraved per room, finishes matched to the hardware
    • Integration path to a Control4 or Savant controller
    • Remote monitoring and scheduled software updates

Lutron Lighting Control

We install Lutron lighting control for homes across north Dallas-Fort Worth from our Plano office, including Frisco, Plano, McKinney, Allen, Prosper, Dallas, and Southlake. Paddle-switch walls become engraved keypads where one press sets every fixture in the room to a chosen level. New construction gets wired dimming placed on the electrical plan, and finished homes get wireless controls fitted without opening walls.

We are a Lutron Gold Dealer, and lighting is the system we specify first on most whole-home projects. Dimming happens at the load, so incandescent, LED, and low-voltage fixtures on the same scene come up together instead of one flickering at the bottom of its range. Keypads are engraved to the scene names your household actually uses, and the plate finishes are chosen alongside the rest of the hardware in the room.

Scenes are the design work. A morning level for the kitchen, a dinner level that leaves the island bright and the perimeter low, an all-off at the door you leave by — we write those with you, then revise them after the family has lived with them a week. After handover the Plano team keeps the processor on remote monitoring and answers (469) 666-0747 directly.

Load schedules, panel space, keypad boxes, and the lighting closet belong on the electrical plan while it is open, not after the wall is closed. On new construction we place those parts with the electrician before drywall. On finished homes we confirm the conditions room by room, then fit wired or wireless controls to the walls.

Cost and product notes for this work are in lighting control system cost, smart lighting cost, and smart lighting solutions for the home.

Hire the shop that lists every controlled load on a schedule before quoting: which fixtures share a dimmer, where keypads sit, and what each engraved button does. Ask whether your walls call for wired or wireless controls, when scene levels get set at the hour they are meant for, and how the live-with-it revision works after the first week. Keypads and dimmers should keep running when the internet drops, and the project file should stay with the Plano team for later changes.

How we approach the work

An evening scene is set in the evening. It cannot be judged at noon.
Levels are set at the hour they are meant for — then revised after a week

What’s included

  • Lutron Gold Dealer
  • Engraved keypads, per-room scenes
  • Wired new build or wireless retrofit
  • Tunable Ketra where it earns its place

Even dimming across mixed fixtures

LED, low-voltage, and legacy loads on the same scene come up together.

Buttons that say what they do

Keypads are engraved with the scenes your household uses — not numbered channels. Guests can work the room without being taught it.

Programming you can revise

Scene levels stay in our project files. A year later, changing what Dine means is a revision, not a rebuild.

The Craft

The engraving is the decision

Plate finish and button text are settled before anything is ordered, because engraving is machined, not written on in the field. What the buttons say is what the household already calls those moments — Dine, Relax, All Off — so nobody has to be taught the wall.

The Light

What controlled lighting looks like in a room

Select any photo to enlarge

  • Buttons engraved with what they do, not numbered channels.

  • One keypad replaces the switch bank it sits in place of.

  • The light bar shows the level without turning the room on.

  • Finishes are chosen against the hardware already in the room.

  • Two buttons is often the whole answer in a small room.

  • Bedside control means nobody crosses the room to switch off.

  • Pico remotes add a control point where the wall has no box.

  • A retrofit control point mounts to tile without opening it.

  • Engraving is machined, so button text is not a field change.

  • A dining scene sets the chandelier and the perimeter together.

  • Levels can be trimmed from the app once the scenes exist.

  • Exterior circuits run on an astronomic clock, not a guess.

Our Process

From switch wall to scenes

Six steps, and the last one happens a week after you think the job is finished.

  1. Complimentary phone consultation

    We start on a call: which rooms fight you, whether the walls are open or finished, and how much of the house you want to do at once. No charge, no obligation. If it is a fit, we book the walkthrough.

  2. Walkthrough & scope

    We go through the rooms with you and note what is actually annoying: the three-switch wall nobody can read, the pendant that buzzes at 40 percent, the hallway that is either off or blinding. You leave with a written scope and a line-item proposal.

  3. Load schedule & keypad layout

    Designers list every controlled load, group them into scenes, and lay out keypad positions and button counts on your floor plan. New construction gets a wiring drawing for the electrician; a finished home gets a wireless plan that says exactly which switches get swapped.

  4. Engraving & finish selection

    Button text and plate finishes are chosen before anything is ordered, because engraving is not a field change. We bring finish samples to the room they will live in rather than picking from a screen.

  5. Installation & scene setting

    Our technicians install and address the dimmers and keypads, then set levels room by room at the time of day the scene is meant for.

  6. Live-with-it revision

    After a week we come back — or connect remotely — and change the levels the household has been working around. This visit is part of the scope, not a service call.

Property Types

Open walls or finished walls

Open walls or finished walls decide the method; the scenes come out the same either way.

  • New construction

    Wired Lutron goes in with the rough electrical, so panels, keypad boxes, and the lighting closet are placed before drywall. We coordinate with your electrician on load schedules and with your builder on box heights, then program before move-in so the house works on day one.

  • Finished-home retrofit

    The wireless line swaps existing switches for dimmers and adds keypads where the wall has no box. Nothing is opened, and work can stop at the end of any day with every light in the house still working. Most Plano and McKinney retrofits are phased by floor.

  • Renovations and single rooms

    A kitchen or primary suite renovation is the cheapest moment to add lighting control, because the walls are already open and the fixtures are already being chosen. We scope the room being renovated and leave the panel sized for the rest of the house later.

Common Questions

Questions about lutron lighting control

01How much does a Lutron lighting system cost in a DFW home?

It follows the number of controlled loads, whether the system is wired or wireless, and how many keypads replace switches. After a complimentary consultation we write a line-item proposal for your house. We do not publish a single figure, because a two-room retrofit and a whole-home wired system are not the same project.

02Can lighting control go into a finished house?

Yes. The wireless Lutron line replaces existing switches and adds battery-powered Pico remotes and keypads without opening walls. Wired systems are the cleaner answer during construction, but a retrofit is routine work here, and it can be phased room by room or floor by floor.

03Do I have to buy automation to get lighting control?

No. Lighting works on its own — keypads, dimmers, and scenes, with no controller in the closet. If you later add a Control4 or Savant system, the same lighting joins it, and the scenes you already use become part of larger routines like Goodnight or Away.

04What is tunable lighting, and do I need it?

Tunable fixtures such as Ketra shift color temperature through the day — cooler and brighter in the morning, warmer in the evening. It matters most in rooms with little daylight and in spaces where the finishes change character under different light. It is a specification choice, not a default; we say where it earns its cost and where standard dimming is the better spend.

05What happens if the internet goes out?

Nothing you would notice. Keypads and dimmers talk to each other inside the house, so scenes keep running. Phone control from outside the house is the part that waits for the connection to come back.

06Who reprograms it later?

The same Plano team, working from the project file that holds your current scene levels. Call (469) 666-0747 during posted hours (Mon–Fri 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM · Sat 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM).

07What does a lighting control system do in a Frisco home?

It replaces rows of unrelated switches with dimmers, engraved keypads, and named scenes. One press can set several fixtures to the levels chosen for cooking, dining, relaxing, or leaving. The system can run by itself, or later join Control4 or Savant so lighting works with shades and other house routines.

08Can I start with one room and expand later?

Yes. Lighting can cover one room, the main floor, or the whole house, and rooms can be added later against the same design. A finished-home retrofit can be phased room by room or floor by floor. During a kitchen or primary suite renovation, we scope that room and leave the panel sized for the rest of the house later.

09Do you work with my electrician or builder?

Yes. On new construction, we coordinate with your electrician on load schedules and your builder on box heights before drywall. The design includes a wiring drawing for the electrician. For a finished home, we prepare a wireless plan identifying which switches will be replaced.

10What should I look for in a lighting control company?

Ask for a load schedule and a keypad layout on your floor plan before equipment is named. Confirm button engraving and plate finishes are chosen before ordering, scene levels are set at the hour they are meant for, and a revision visit follows the first week. As a Lutron Gold Dealer, we design, program, and service the system from Plano and plan it so it can be tied into a Control4 or Savant system later where the products support that.

11How do I choose between wired and wireless lighting control?

Open walls call for wired controls placed with the rough electrical, with panels, keypad boxes, and a lighting closet set before drywall. Finished walls usually suit wireless controls that replace existing switches and add keypads with little or no wall work; we confirm the wiring at each box first. Both run the same scenes from engraved keypads. The walkthrough decides which method fits your house, and finished-home work can be phased room by room or floor by floor.

12Which rooms gain the most from lighting control?

Rooms with banks of switches that all look alike: the kitchen, great room, primary suite, and entries. Kitchens gain a bright island level with a low perimeter for dinner, and entries gain an All Off at the door the family leaves by. Bedrooms and media spaces gain dimmed scenes for evening. Start with the rooms that fight you daily, then add rooms later against the same design.

13Do you install lighting control across Dallas-Fort Worth?

Yes. Our office is in Plano, and we install Lutron lighting in Frisco, Plano, McKinney, Allen, Prosper, Dallas, and Southlake. New construction gets a wiring drawing for the electrician before drywall, and finished homes get a wireless plan that names every switch to be replaced. Jobs start with a complimentary consultation and a walkthrough, then a written line-item proposal.
