Matrix Digital Systems delivers whole-home automation for luxury residences in Los Angeles, California — whole-home automation on Crestron Home, Savant, and Josh.ai — one interface for lighting, shades, audio, video, HVAC, security, pool, and irrigation — with dispatch from our Fountain Valley studio.
Purpose-built smart home automation for Los Angeles County and the Westside.
LA smart home projects blend hillside estate scale with PSPS-tolerant infrastructure. Every LA install includes generator or battery-backup integration on the network, processors, and lighting so the system survives an extended utility outage. Beverly Hills, Bel Air, and Malibu projects commonly integrate 20+ audio zones, 40+ lighting zones, and dedicated fire-hardened equipment rooms.
Matrix Digital Systems dispatches from our Fountain Valley studio to Los Angeles County and the Westside — including Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Malibu, Pacific Palisades, Hollywood Hills, and Brentwood. We handle processor design, network, keypad and touch-panel layout, subsystem integration, programming, calibration, and training. Engagement range for smart home automation in Los Angeles is typically $40,000–$500,000+.

Los Angeles + smart home automation — frequently asked.
How do you handle PSPS shutoffs on hillside LA homes?
Every LA hillside install we do integrates generator and/or battery backup on the network, processors, lighting, and critical automation — so during a Public Safety Power Shutoff, the home continues to run, cameras keep recording, and Away scenes text you when utility fails and returns. Fire-season resilience is a design priority, not an add-on.
Do you work with LA architects on ground-up new construction?
Yes. We work with residential architects in Los Angeles from schematic-design through punch-list — pre-wire coordination, keypad schedule review, and integration of the automation into the architectural drawings rather than retrofitted afterward.
Can you integrate cellular boosters for hillside dead zones?
Yes. Hillside LA homes commonly have poor cellular coverage even indoors. We specify Cel-Fi, WilsonPro, or SureCall cellular signal boosters integrated with the network infrastructure so cellular calls, texts, and data work throughout the home.
Is Matrix Digital Systems an authorized Crestron dealer?
Yes. Matrix Digital Systems is a certified Crestron dealer and an authorized Josh.ai integrator. Michael Van Marel personally develops custom Crestron Home extension drivers and holds current Crestron programming credentials — rare in the residential integration business.
Do you also do the networking?
Yes. Every install includes a professionally designed network with managed switches, enterprise Wi-Fi (Ubiquiti UniFi, Ruckus, or Cisco Meraki), Cat6A structured cabling, and a UPS-backed rack. Networking is the foundation the rest of the automation stands on.
Can pool, spa, and irrigation be controlled from the same system?
Yes. Pentair, Jandy, Hayward, and Rain Bird all integrate with Crestron and Savant. Pool temperature, spa jets, waterfall pumps, and irrigation schedules appear alongside lighting and audio in the primary interface.
