Audio done right
Even coverage from speakers laid out for the space, so nobody turns it up to hear it at the far end and nobody is shouting near the source.
// Outdoor Entertainment
Outdoor living and AV automation for Dallas homes.
The weather in Dallas can be unpredictable, but that does not mean giving up your outdoor entertaining. Weather-resistant equipment withstands Texas heat, humidity and storms, and outdoor lighting, audio, video and screens join the same Savant scenes as the rest of the house, so the patio is ready for a swim, the game or dinner with one press, or on a schedule that follows the sun.
Video that survives outside
Outdoor-rated displays and projection screens built for sun, heat and rain, controlled like every other room.
Light and shade, on one scene
Landscape and pool lighting on the same control as the house, and motorized screens that make the patio usable through more of the year.
// What we design and install
Outdoor audio, video, lighting and shade, built for Texas.
01
Outdoor audio for patios, pools and gardens
Weather-resistant ceiling speakers for the covered patio, landscape speakers and buried subwoofers for the yard and the pool, laid out for even coverage rather than volume. The backyard is a zone like any room inside: same app, same keypads, same playlists, and the music can follow you from the kitchen to the pool.
- Patio ceiling, landscape and pool-area speakers
- Even coverage, sized for the space
- Same zones and scenes as indoors
02
Outdoor TVs, projection and motorized screens
Outdoor-rated displays for game day under the patio roof, projection for movie night by the pool, and motorized screens that drop in seconds to cut the west sun and the insects, then retract when the evening cools. Sources are shared with the media room, so the game follows you outside.
- Outdoor-rated displays and projection
- Motorized patio screens for sun, insects and privacy
- Sources shared with the media room
03
Landscape, pool and patio lighting
Lighting for paths, the pool, the trees and the facade, on the same control system as the interior. Scenes for dinner, a swim and late evening, and astronomical schedules that follow sunset through the year, so the yard is lit when you step out and dark when everyone is asleep.
- Path, pool, tree and facade lighting
- Scenes shared with interior lighting
- Schedules that follow sunset
04
One backyard scene, from the app or the keypad
Dinner outside should be one press: shades up, string lights and landscape lighting on, music at the table, the pool lit. A keypad by the patio door, the Savant app and voice control run the same scenes, and the whole yard goes dark and quiet at the time you set.
- Dinner, Swim and Goodnight scenes for the yard
- Keypad at the patio door, app and voice
- Everything off on a schedule
// Proof
Built for Texas weather. Controlled like the rest of the house.
Every outdoor system uses equipment rated for heat, humidity and storms, wired back to the same network, control and power protection as the interior, so the patio behaves like any other room of the home.

Working with Johann and WH Technologies was great. Friendly, fast, and very knowledgeable.
Drew Mills, Google review - ★★★★★
Great service. He worked with me for two days after installation to resolve my Wi-Fi issue. He was responsive and helpful throughout the process. Quick response. Professional. Highly recommended.

How many outdoor speakers do we really need?
Enough for even coverage, not maximum volume. We size and position speakers for the space so the far end of the patio hears the same level as the seating area, without the volume war.
Can I control the outdoor music and TV from the same system as indoors?
Yes. Indoor music and backyard speakers are managed from a single device, and outdoor lighting, video and screens join the same Savant scenes as the rest of the house.
Will the equipment survive Texas summers and storms?
Yes. We specify weather-resistant equipment built for heat, humidity and storms, and motorized screens and displays retract or are rated for the conditions. Wiring and power protection are planned like the interior.
Can the outdoor lighting follow sunset automatically?
Yes. Astronomical schedules track sunset and sunrise through the year, so the landscape lighting comes on when it gets dark and goes off at the time you choose, without anyone touching a switch.
Can outdoor audio and lighting be added to an existing patio?
Often, yes. We survey the patio, the pool and the yard, find routes for wiring and choose speakers and fixtures that suit the space, and tell you honestly what is possible without disruption.
Do you install outdoor TVs or projection?
Both. Outdoor-rated displays suit a covered patio and daytime viewing; projection with a motorized screen suits movie nights by the pool. We recommend based on how and when you will watch.
// Across Dallas-Fort Worth
Outdoor entertainment across Dallas-Fort Worth, from Southlake to Prosper.
North Texas backyards work hard: long summers, warm evenings from March to November and pools, patios and outdoor kitchens that get used as much as the living room. As an outdoor AV company based in Allen, we design and install outdoor entertainment across Dallas-Fort Worth, whether that is a covered patio in Frisco, Prosper or McKinney, a pool and pergola in Plano or Southlake, or an estate garden in Highland Park or University Park.
Outdoor systems run on the same audio, lighting and shading platform as the house, wired back to the same network and power protection, and we work with your builder and landscape designer during construction. After the installation our team remains available for support, updates and adjustments.
Where we work
