Home / Approach / The process

How a CITE project runs.

Scope, design, pre-wire, install and handover, in that order. One team does the drawing, wiring, programming and support.

A living room before trim-out, the drywall hung, a wall box left open with its cable and the plans on a sawhorse table

The question we get

Who is actually responsible when the lighting does not work?

On most projects, two firms: one pulls the wire and one programs the systems, and a fault can fall between them. At CITE, one team does both, so one team answers for it.

The order of work, from scope to handover.

01

Plan your project

Tell us the property, the rooms and the systems you want, and we write the scope and price it room by room.

02

Design

We draw the lighting and load plan with the architect and the interior designer, and agree keypad positions, engraving and shade detailing before anything is built.

03

Pre-wire

We wire the building before the walls close. Every device gets a documented path back to the panel, with low voltage mounting brackets and fixture housings set to the lighting plan.

04

Install and commission

The equipment rack is built, labeled and wired in our workshop before it goes on site. Levels, scenes and schedules are set in the finished room, with the furniture in.

05

Handover and support

As-built drawings, device schedules and credentials are handed over with the house. A care plan keeps it working, with monitoring and priority scheduling.

Included on every project.

  • A written scope and a price
  • A lighting and load plan
  • A panel schedule drawn against the real device list
  • A documented path back to the panel for every device
  • Coordination with the builder and the other trades
  • Permit and inspection coordination
  • Point to point testing against the panel schedule
  • Commissioning in the finished room, with you there
  • As-built drawings and device schedules
  • Handover, documentation and training

What our customers say.

Ninety five percent of our work comes from a recommendation.

The team comes in and is reliable, honest and operates around my home with integrity. I recommend them to anyone who is looking for some great automated shades, and home network services. Jason always takes the time to answer any questions I may have and provides me with all the options available from different luxury vendors. As a woman, it can be difficult to find a company you can trust, so I am beyond ecstatic to have been referred to CITE Solutions! Jason and Nicole are the best!!
