Knightsbridge

London AV consultancy & integration

Considered technology
for homes that
simply work.

We design, install and care for home automation systems in London's finest private residences, working alongside architects and developers from first drawing to final handover.

01

Designed

We start where the architect's drawings end, cabling routes, control logic, lighting scenes and screen positions specified before the walls go up.

02

Installed

Clean, documented installations held to the highest standards, commissioned, tested and signed off before we leave.

03

Maintained

Most of our clients have been with us for years. We answer the phone, resolve issues quickly, provide remote monitoring and keep your system current as technology evolves.

Services

Everything your home needs,
nothing it doesn't.

Smart home control

Control4 authorised design and installation. One interface for lighting, audio, cinema, climate, intercom and access control, from anywhere in the world. Answer your door from your phone, speak to visitors, grant access remotely and never miss a delivery, whether you're upstairs or on the other side of the world.

Lighting control

Intelligent lighting designed around how you live, scenes, schedules, and seamless shading that responds to natural light. Leave the house and turn everything off with a single tap, or activate holiday mode, which subtly mimics occupancy by varying lights throughout the day to deter intruders while you're away.

Home Cinema & Multiroom Audio

From dedicated screening rooms with 4K projection and immersive surround sound, to music playing seamlessly in every room of the house, controlled from one app or a keypad on the wall. We design systems that perform flawlessly and integrate invisibly into the architecture, so the technology is never the focus, the experience is.

Networking & Wi-Fi

Enterprise-grade wireless infrastructure, invisibly installed. Reliable, fast coverage in every room, on every floor and throughout the garden, with no dead spots, no dropouts and no compromises. The backbone that everything else in your home depends on, built to last.

CCTV

Discreet, professionally installed camera systems integrated with your interface and viewable from anywhere in the world. Our systems use AI-powered detection to intelligently distinguish between a delivery, a visitor or a vehicle on the driveway, so you're only alerted when it matters, not every time a bird lands on the garden wall.

Aftercare & support

Service contracts, remote monitoring and on-site visits. We're here long after the project is complete, and most clients have been with us for years.

Planning a project?
Let's talk.

30-minute call, no obligation. We'll tell you honestly if we're the right fit for your project.

Approach

How we work

We don't sell systems.
We solve homes.

Our approach

Every project starts with a conversation.

We want to understand how you live, your habits, your preferences, what frustrates you about technology, and what would genuinely improve your daily life.

From there, we design a system that fits your home, not a catalogue. We work with architects, interior designers and project managers from the earliest stages so that technology is built in, not bolted on.

The process

Four stages. One point of contact throughout.

01

Consultation

We visit, listen, and ask the right questions. We tell you honestly what's possible, what's worth doing, and what isn't.

02

Design

A full specification, cabling schedule, equipment list, control architecture and lighting scenes. Everything your builder needs before work starts.

03

Installation

Clean, documented installations. We work closely with your site manager and sign off only when everything works exactly as designed.

04

Aftercare

All clients have direct access to our team. Annual service contracts keep your system performing perfectly year after year.

Working on a project?
Let's have an early conversation.

We're always happy to discuss a project at an early stage.

Who we are

A practice, not a shop.

Built on long-term relationships.

NK AV was founded on a simple idea: that the best technology is the kind you stop noticing. We design, install and care for audio-visual and smart home systems in London's finest private residences, with the same attention to detail you'd expect from any specialist working in a high-end home.

We are a small, focused practice. That means every project is handled by the same people from first consultation to final handover, and that the clients who have been with us the longest are the ones who trust us most.

We work with a carefully selected range of high-end products and manufacturers. Knowing these systems inside out, and building long-term relationships with the brands we specify, means better outcomes and more reliable results for our clients.
