Electricians and low-voltage technicians who install, program and service the systems they wire, as one scope.
A complete smart home depends on both line-voltage infrastructure and low-voltage technology. Regent5 coordinates service capacity, panels, lighting circuits, shade power, structured wiring, automation, networking, security, AV and backup power from design through commissioning.
Structured cabling is inexpensive while framing is open and difficult to redo after drywall. Regent5 plans hardwired network backbones, display locations, keypads, cameras, speakers, access points, equipment rooms and future conduit so the home has infrastructure that can evolve.
Finished homes require a different strategy. Wireless lighting control, selective wiring paths, retrofit shades, wireless audio and targeted network upgrades can modernize a residence while limiting construction. The tradeoffs are defined before work starts.
Lighting circuits, dedicated equipment circuits, panel and service upgrades, EV charging, batteries, generators and critical-load planning all affect the smart-home system. Regent5 coordinates these electrical needs with the technology design instead of treating them as separate projects.
Regent5 designs and supports systems built around platforms such as Savant, Control4, Crestron, Lutron, UniFi, Verkada and other residential technologies. Platform selection is based on the property, user experience, infrastructure, service requirements and long-term support. Regent5 is a certified Lutron dealer for HomeWorks, RadioRA 3, Ketra, Rania and Lumaris and an authorized Savant and Control4 dealer, so the home automation electricians who wire the house also program it.
Regent5 supports new custom homes, major remodels, finished residences and estate properties across Northern California. The scope scales from targeted upgrades to whole-property systems with multiple buildings, gates, outdoor spaces and resilient infrastructure.

The project does not end when equipment powers on. Regent5 commissions the integrated systems, documents the installation, trains the household and supports the property over time with a service team backed by in-house engineering. Regent5 has designed, installed and serviced residential electrical and automation systems for over 15 years.
High-end residential technology performs best when power, lighting, low-voltage wiring, networking and automation are coordinated as one system. Regent5 plans these interfaces from infrastructure through final commissioning.
Service capacity, panels, dedicated circuits and critical loads coordinated with the technology plan.
Hardwired network, AV, security, control and fiber pathways planned before finish work closes access.
Centralized or distributed lighting control coordinated with fixtures, loads, panels, keypads and scenes.
Power, control wiring, pockets and blocking coordinated for motorized shades and drapery.
Control of lighting, shades, climate, AV, security and selected property systems through a unified user experience.
Wired backbone, switching, Wi-Fi, segmentation and remote-management infrastructure for the connected home.
Cameras, alarms, gates, intercoms and access devices coordinated with network and power requirements.
EV charging and electrical upgrades coordinated with service capacity, load priorities and future energy needs.
Backup-power systems planned around critical home technology, networking, lighting and security loads.
Integrated systems tested, documented, handed off and supported over time by one technical service team.
Where we work.
Regent5's smart home electricians work across San Francisco (Pacific Heights, Sea Cliff, Presidio Heights, Noe Valley and Russian Hill), the Peninsula, the North Bay, South Bay, and East Bay, Wine Country, and the Carmel and Monterey area, from the company's base in San Carlos. Select engagements extend to Santa Barbara, the Los Angeles area, and Orange County.
An electrician wires power and lighting circuits. A smart home contractor also designs, installs and programs the control, network, audio video and security systems that run on that wiring. Regent5 does both under one team, so the wiring is planned around the systems from the start.
Typical scope can include Cat6A, fiber, speaker wiring, camera and access-control cabling, keypad and control wiring, shade power, equipment-room infrastructure and conduit for future systems.
Often, yes. Retrofit lighting control, wireless devices, selective wiring paths and targeted network upgrades can add substantial functionality without opening every wall. The practical limits depend on the home and desired features.
Yes. Electrical capacity, panels, dedicated circuits and utility coordination can be incorporated when a project adds major loads such as EV charging, batteries, generators, lighting-control panels or new equipment rooms.
Regent5 designs and supports systems built around platforms such as Savant, Control4, Crestron, Lutron, UniFi, Verkada and other residential technologies selected to fit the project.
During design development is ideal. Service capacity, panels, lighting-control architecture, pathways, equipment rooms, shade power, network topology and security infrastructure are easier to coordinate before permit and framing decisions are fixed.
Yes. Lighting-control panels, dimming loads, keypad locations, shade power, pockets and control wiring should be coordinated together so the architectural and electrical plans support the same system.
Yes. EV charging, batteries, generators and other large loads can be coordinated with service capacity, load management, critical circuits and the home’s technology infrastructure.
Yes. Regent5 supports integrated residential systems over time, including electrical infrastructure, automation, lighting control, networking, security, AV, shades and resilient-power interfaces.
A hardwired backbone, managed switching, Wi-Fi coverage, segmentation, equipment locations, fiber where appropriate and remote-management requirements should be designed before finish work closes access.
Regent5 works from its design center at 1300 Industrial Road, Suite 12, San Carlos, on the Peninsula, and its electricians and low-voltage technicians work across San Francisco, the Peninsula, the North Bay, South Bay, and East Bay, Wine Country, and the Carmel and Monterey area. Most projects begin with a call or a visit to the design center, where we review drawings or the existing system before recommending a scope.
Regent5 serves luxury residences and estates throughout Northern California, including the Peninsula, San Francisco, South Bay, East Bay, Marin, Wine Country and the Monterey Peninsula, with select project coverage farther south.
