How much does a Control4 home automation system cost in Kansas City?

A complete Control4 system for a typical Kansas City home ranges from $18,000 for essentials (lighting + audio control) to $175,000+ for whole-home automation including video distribution, security integration, and concierge programming. IntegrateIT, a Platinum-tier Control4 dealer based in Overland Park, provides fixed-price written proposals after a no-cost site walk.

How much does luxury home networking cost in Kansas City? (2026)

A luxury home network in Kansas City in 2026 runs $6,500 for a foundational UniFi + Wi-Fi 6E install to $145,000+ for an estate-grade Cisco Meraki + 10 GbE fiber + multi-building Wi-Fi 7 deployment. Cost drivers: square footage, Wi-Fi standard (6E vs 7), platform tier (UniFi vs Cisco Meraki), how much structured wiring is already in place, and whether you want managed service / monitoring on top. IntegrateIT has installed 80+ luxury home networks across the KC metro since 2021 — these ranges come straight from our project history.

Below: cost by home size, what each tier includes, the UniFi vs Meraki decision, and the seven questions every Kansas City buyer asks.

Network cost by home size (Kansas City, 2026)

Foundational — 3,000-5,000 sq ft

$7k–$14k

Structured-wiring panel + 1U UniFi Dream Machine Pro + 2-3 Wi-Fi 6E access points + 1-2 PoE switches + Cat6A runs to every TV / desk / camera location. Right-sized for the typical Leawood / Prairie Village family home that wants reliable Wi-Fi everywhere + room to grow.

Whole-house — 5,000-10,000 sq ft

$17k–$38k

Enterprise-grade gateway (UniFi UDM-SE or Cisco Meraki MX), 4-7 ceiling-mount Wi-Fi 7 access points, 24-48 port aggregation switch, dedicated VLANs for IoT + cameras + guests, redundant cabling (Cat6A + fiber backbone to the rack room), UPS battery backup. Right-sized for $2M-$4M homes with home offices + 6-12 cameras + home theater.

Estate — 10,000+ sq ft / multi-building

$42k–$145k

Multi-WAN failover (2x ISP + LTE backup), enterprise rack (Cisco Meraki MX-100 + 48-port multi-gig PoE++ switches + 10 GbE fiber backbone), 8-15 Wi-Fi 7 access points across primary residence + pool house + barn / guest house / detached office, dedicated network for surveillance (16-32 cameras) + dedicated network for control system (Crestron / Control4 / Lutron).

Questions every Kansas City buyer asks

How much does a luxury home network cost in Kansas City?

A foundational 3,000-5,000 sq ft home network with UniFi gear + Wi-Fi 6E runs $6,500-$14,000. A whole-house 5,000-10,000 sq ft network with Wi-Fi 7 + enterprise gateway + VLANs runs $16,500-$38,000. An estate-grade 10,000+ sq ft network with multi-WAN failover + 10 GbE fiber backbone + multi-building Wi-Fi runs $42,000-$145,000. Cost drivers: square footage, cable count + length, Wi-Fi standard (6E vs 7), platform tier (UniFi vs Cisco Meraki), and monitoring/service contract scope.

Do I really need Wi-Fi 7 in 2026, or is Wi-Fi 6E enough?

Wi-Fi 7 is meaningfully faster than 6E (~2.4 Gbps vs ~1.2 Gbps real-world to a single client) and adds 320 MHz channels in the 6 GHz band — useful for VR + 8K streaming + multiple high-throughput clients on the same AP. For most luxury homes, Wi-Fi 6E in 2026 is still fine; Wi-Fi 7 becomes the right call for new construction (where the AP placement is permanent), homes with VR headsets or 8K theater, and homes with 30+ connected devices. We typically spec Wi-Fi 7 for whole-house + estate installs, Wi-Fi 6E for foundational.

Should I pick Ubiquiti UniFi or Cisco Meraki?

UniFi is the right answer for ~80% of luxury homes — strong feature set, no recurring license fees, modern UI, $150-$400 per access point. Cisco Meraki is right when you need enterprise-grade SLA + 24/7 support contract + multi-site WAN management (estate + commercial properties) — but it costs ~3x and requires annual license renewal per device ($150-$300/yr per AP). We spec UniFi for foundational + whole-house installs, Meraki for estate + multi-site clients.

What is structured wiring and why does it matter?

Structured wiring is the in-wall Cat6A + coax + fiber runs that connect every TV / camera / access-point / desk-location back to a central rack room. Done at framing-stage, it costs $2k-$8k for a typical home; done as retrofit post-drywall, the patching labor doubles or triples the cost. Structured wiring is what lets us hardwire the Wi-Fi APs (PoE), the cameras (PoE), the TVs (HDMI-over-IP), the Control4 controllers, the Lutron processor — everything that should NOT be on Wi-Fi runs on copper or fiber.

Why VLANs for a home network?

VLANs (virtual LANs) keep IoT devices (smart locks, smart bulbs, robot vacuums, Ring doorbells, refrigerators) on their own network segment, separate from your work laptops + phones. If a smart bulb gets compromised, the attacker can't pivot into your private network. Standard luxury-home install: 4-6 VLANs (Trusted, IoT, Cameras, Guest Wi-Fi, Control system, Outdoor / pool). Firewall rules between them prevent the wrong devices from talking.

Do you offer a managed-service contract for the network?

Yes — three tiers. (1) Foundational: $0-$120/month, included in 5-year workmanship warranty, covers UniFi firmware updates + 24-hour response on outages. (2) Whole-house: $180-$320/month, adds 24/7 network monitoring with proactive alerts before you notice an outage, quarterly health reviews, priority dispatch. (3) Estate: $480-$1,200/month, adds dedicated NOC monitoring, multi-WAN failover testing, monthly written reports, on-call programmer for after-hours changes.
