Home Automation in Detroit: what to expect
Home automation in Detroit means one system that controls lighting scenes, shades, climate, audio, cameras and locks from keypads, a phone or voice, with schedules that run on their own. It is different from a few app-controlled gadgets: an integrator designs a central system that is reliable and easy for everyone in the house.
Projects are common in remodels and new builds in Bloomfield Hills, Grosse Pointe, Northville and Birmingham, but retrofits work too with wireless devices. Key decisions are the control platform, wired vs wireless lighting control, and a solid home network, since everything depends on it.
If you want a few smart devices rather than a whole-home system, see smart home installation. For the network behind it, see wireless access points.
What a proper job includes
- Design meeting to set priorities, rooms and budget drivers
- Control platform selection and a device list
- Network assessment and upgrades for reliable control
- Lighting control, shade, thermostat and audio integration

Permits and licensing in Michigan
Low-voltage control wiring is generally not treated like line-voltage electrical work, but smart dimmers, new switch boxes and anything connected to household wiring is electrical work for a licensed electrician, often with an electrical permit. Confirm permit rules with your local building department (BSEED in Detroit).
Michigan law limits local electrical ordinances from requiring permits for home monitoring systems that allow remote monitoring and control of a home. If the system includes monitored security, ask for the company's LARA Security Alarm Contractor license and check it on MiCLEAR.
