Lutron
RadioRA 3, Caseta, HomeWorks QSX, and Vive — from single-room retrofits to whole-building control with shade integration and remote management.
Commercial lighting controls are more than dimmers on a wall. We design, install, and program the full Lutron system so every zone responds correctly to occupancy, daylight, schedules, and manual overrides — ready for daily operation and code compliance.
Every controls project starts with understanding how the space is used — then we design, install, and program a system your team can operate confidently on day one.
We visit the site, review existing wiring and fixtures, and discuss how the space is used throughout the day. This is where we identify retrofit opportunities, integration needs, and any code requirements that affect control selection.
We select the Lutron platform, map control zones, specify devices, and produce a control narrative that aligns with your electrical plans and operating requirements. Design happens before procurement so there are no surprises in the field.
Panels, dimmers, sensors, wall stations, and network hardware are ordered to match the approved specification. Lead times vary by platform — we factor procurement into the project schedule from the start.
Low-voltage wiring, panel mounting, device installation, and ceiling sensor placement are coordinated with the lighting contractor and GC. Every wire is labeled and every zone is verified before energizing.
After fixtures are live, we program control sequences, configure occupancy and daylight responses, build scene presets, and run functional tests in every zone. Adjustments are made on site before handoff.
We walk your team through wall stations, scene buttons, schedule overrides, and remote management tools. Documentation includes zone maps, device locations, and programming notes for future changes.
Commercial lighting controls in California must meet mandatory measures under the Building Energy Efficiency Standards. Lutron systems are engineered to deliver the control functions the code requires — when installed and programmed correctly.
Lutron commercial control systems address mandatory Title 24 measures including multi-level control, automatic shut-off, occupancy and vacancy sensing, daylight harvesting, and demand-responsive lighting where applicable. We confirm which measures apply to your specific alteration or new-build scope during the walkthrough.
Different Lutron platforms — Vive, RadioRA 3, HomeWorks QSX — meet different project scales and compliance paths. We select the system that satisfies the energy code requirements for your jurisdiction while matching your operational needs and budget.
When your project requires formal acceptance testing, our Title 24 certified team handles functional verification, documentation, and inspection coordination. Controls installed by us are programmed and tested before the formal acceptance test — not during it.
Electrical permits and plan check requirements vary by city and county across the Bay Area. We coordinate with your GC and design team to ensure control narratives, device schedules, and wiring diagrams are included in the permit set when the jurisdiction requires them.
Lutron certification on our team means we design, install, troubleshoot, and commission Lutron systems without bringing in a separate controls vendor. We pair Lutron controls with commercial fixtures from trusted manufacturers.
RadioRA 3, Caseta, HomeWorks QSX, and Vive — from single-room retrofits to whole-building control with shade integration and remote management.
Switches, receptacles, and standalone occupancy/vacancy sensors for smaller zones and code-required manual controls.
Commercial fixtures for open office, back-of-house, and high-bay applications with integrated or remote-mounted sensors.
From a single-zone dimmer retrofit in an existing retail space to a full building Lutron control system with shade integration, scene programming, and remote management. We scale the platform and crew to match the project.
Most commercial lighting control projects run one to six weeks depending on zone count, ceiling type, equipment lead times, and whether the work is coordinated with a larger build-out or stand-alone retrofit.

Most of our Lutron control work arrives through tenant improvements and build-outs in these sectors. Each has different scene requirements, hours of operation, and ceiling conditions — we know the patterns.
Based in Fremont, we install and program Lutron lighting controls across the entire San Francisco Bay Area. See all service areas →
We install and program Lutron RadioRA 3, Caseta, HomeWorks QSX, and Vive systems for commercial applications. RadioRA 3 and HomeWorks QSX handle whole-building and multi-zone control with shade integration and remote management. Vive is common on tenant improvements where wireless controls speed up retrofit work. We select the platform based on zone count, integration requirements, and whether the project is new construction or a retrofit.
Yes. Many Bay Area retail and restaurant projects upgrade existing fixtures without replacing every luminaire. We evaluate the current wiring, fixture types, and ceiling conditions during a walkthrough, then specify the Lutron platform and devices that fit the existing infrastructure — from single-zone dimmer swaps to full-panel retrofits with wireless occupancy sensors.
Yes. Scene programming is a core part of every commercial controls project. We configure preset lighting levels for opening, daytime selling, evening ambiance, and after-hours security modes — tailored to retail showrooms, restaurant dining rooms, and office workspaces. Scenes can be triggered manually from wall stations, scheduled on a time clock, or tied to occupancy sensors.
Yes. Lutron control systems are designed to meet California Energy Code requirements for occupancy sensing, daylight harvesting, multi-level control, and automatic shut-off. When installed and programmed correctly, a Lutron system provides the control functions Title 24 mandates. We handle the installation, programming, and — when required — acceptance testing so the controls pass inspection.
Schedule a site visit and we’ll review your existing lighting, discuss scene requirements, and recommend the Lutron platform that fits your space and budget.
