Your Home Automation Neighbors, Right Down the Block
In Manhattan, one room often serves multiple purposes throughout the day: an office in the morning, a dining space in the evening, and a quiet retreat at night. HDH Tech designs systems that allow each room to shift seamlessly without a wall of confusing switches or constant adjustments. Our showroom is located in Midtown at 325 West 38th Street, placing us minutes away from Park Avenue classic sixes, Tribeca lofts, West Village townhouses, and waterfront penthouses.
Working in Manhattan requires more than just technical precision. Co-op and condo boards mandate strict alteration agreements, insurance certificates, specific work hours, and scheduled freight elevator access. We handle the paperwork and logistics directly, protecting adjacent walls and coordinating with building management to ensure your project proceeds smoothly and without friction.
Lighting Control Tailored for City Living
The balance between decorative fixtures, linear LEDs, task lamps, and natural daylight determines whether a room feels inviting or overlit. Rather than adjusting separate circuits, our custom lighting scenes let you recall ideal configurations at the touch of a single button or via Josh.ai voice control. We specialize in the design and installation of lighting automation systems from Lutron HomeWorks, RadioRA, and Ketra, as well as Vantage and Savant systems, tailored for specific Manhattan home styles:
- Prewar Apartments: Advanced wireless Lutron controls fit into existing wall boxes, giving you rich multi-room scene control without disturbing historic plaster, ceilings, or trim.
- Open Lofts: High ceilings and multi-use spaces in SoHo and Tribeca benefit from unified scenes that balance ambient, track, accent, and art lighting together effortlessly.
- Multilevel Townhouses: Keypads placed strategically at entryways and bedside tables let you manage entire floors or initiate a complete “All Off” bedtime path with a single tap.
- Art & Architectural Focus: Ketra tunable lighting delivers color-accurate illumination that adapts to natural daylight shifts and highlights private art collections flawlessly.
- Clean Wall Design: Replace unsightly multi-gang light switches (“wall acne”) with a single, elegantly engraved keypad tailored to match your interior hardware and finishes.
Whether collaborating with architects and interior designers during gut renovations or retrofitting occupied residences, we connect lighting design to practical installation realities.
Motorized Shades for Penthouse Glass & City Privacy
Floor-to-ceiling glass offers unmatched urban views but can bring intense glare and heat gain. South- and west-facing windows can overheat living spaces mid-afternoon and cause irreversible fading to hardwood floors, rugs, and artwork. Along the Hudson and East Rivers, reflected glare off the water introduces additional challenges.
We engineer Lutron motorized shading solutions that run quietly and integrate into your daily schedules. Automated solar shades cut down glare and solar heat gain while preserving iconic skyline views. Dual-roller blackouts ensure complete bedroom darkness in a city that never sleeps. For townhouses and prewar casement windows, we design custom pockets or concealed mounts that hide shades discreetly within the architecture.
Repair & Upgrade: Restore Your Existing System
If your home came with an inherited lighting or control system that suffers from non-responsive keypads, broken shade programming, or an absent original installer, you don’t necessarily need a full system replacement. HDH Tech regularly services, repairs, and updates existing Lutron, Vantage, and Savant installations across Manhattan.
We back up your current programming, diagnose hardware or wiring issues, replace only the failed components, and update scene settings to align with your lifestyle today. If a system component is truly legacy or end-of-life, we offer clear, transparent upgrade recommendations with zero pressure.

Manhattan Homeowner FAQs
Can you work within my co-op or condo alteration rules?
Yes. We regularly coordinate with building management, supply required Certificate of Insurance (COI) documents, adhere strictly to designated work hours, and schedule elevator time according to building protocols.
Can lighting control be added to a prewar apartment without opening walls?
In most cases, yes. Wireless Lutron dimmers and keypads utilize existing electrical boxes and retrofitted wiring, eliminating the need to cut into historic plaster, walls, or decorative mouldings.
Will solar shades provide privacy at night?
Solar shade fabrics filter daytime sunlight while maintaining exterior views. However, when interior lights are on at night, spectators can see inside. For complete nighttime privacy, we recommend dual-shade configurations pairing solar screen fabrics with opaque blackout shades.
Our legacy installer is gone. Can you take over and repair our system?
Absolutely. We frequently take over, repair, and optimize legacy Lutron, Vantage, and Savant systems previously installed by other integrators.
Can I test keypads, lighting, and motorized shades before committing?
Yes! Visit our Midtown Manhattan showroom at 325 West 38th Street to experience Lutron keypads, Ketra lighting, motorized shading fabrics, and control scenes firsthand.
