Get the Custom Width & Length to Match Your Frame TV  

You care about how your home looks, right? You aren’t a college kid with thumb-tacked posters and a hodgepodge of random furniture. No, you’re an adult with taste and a home you take pride in. 

So, if you’re reading this, you probably understand the clash between interior design and setting up an attractive entertainment system. You could have the most beautifully cultivated furniture, artwork, and lighting—and then a clunky TV setup disturbs the entire aesthetic.  

Thankfully, many technology manufacturers are catching on and offering solutions to make TVs appear more aesthetically pleasing. Samsung’s The Frame television resembles a real piece of art when powered off, and fits ultra-slim to your wall. 

And now, audio manufacturer Leon has released a soundbar to perfectly fit the width and dimensions of any Frame AV. Meet the Leon FrameBar, the soundbar built for audio and design enthusiasts alike. 

The Soundbar Made for The Frame 

Leon’s FrameBar is custom-built to match the precise dimensions and frame color of any Samsung Frame TV, creating a unified, polished look. With its ultra-thin cabinet (as slim as 2.375 inches), the FrameBar installs flush to the wall using Leon’s exclusive mounting brackets.

Putting More Control in the Homeowner’s Hands 

If you live in a Control4 household, you’re in luck. 

Control4 recently unveiled its newest operating system, X4, which brings newfound customization options to your C4 interface. Plus, if you’re an Apple fan, X4 deepens Control4’s integration with Apple products. 

Here’s all you can expect when you upgrade your Control4 system to X4.

Protect What You’ve Built with Building-Wide Access Control 

What happens when your facility’s entry points aren’t as secure as you think?

In just the last year, several Texas-based businesses and organizations have suffered devastating breaches, each incident underscoring the need for proactive, intelligent access control.

• Austin Pets Alive!, an animal shelter, was broken into in August 2025. A keypad was forcibly damaged, dogs were released, and tragically, one died.
  
  
• Overhaul, a supply chain management company in Austin, reported a 49% increase in cargo theft in 2025, as part of a broader rise in theft across Texas.
  
  
• In Midland, businesses lost over $90,000 in property during a 2024 string of break-ins.
  
  
• In Houston, a local restaurant suffered two burglaries in a single week, one involving a power cut to disable the alarm system.

While motives vary, these incidents share one common thread: a lack of sufficient physical access control. A damaged keypad, an unmonitored entry point, or a power outage shouldn’t be a free pass for criminals.

Plan Ahead for Whole-Home Convenience & Control 

If you’re planning a new home build or a renovation, your technology systems should feel effortless. And the best systems aren’t bolted on after the drywall is finished; they should be thoughtfully designed into your home’s structure itself. That’s where Crestron stands apart.

Unlike many plug-and-play smart home solutions, Crestron becomes part of the fabric of the home. From lighting and shades to audio, video, and security, the system is designed alongside the architecture so every element works together seamlessly.

Here are five reasons discerning homeowners, builders, and design professionals across Dallas/Ft. Worth choose Crestron when building a new residence.

See What You’re Missing Without Professional Lighting Control

Do you dream of lighting that automatically adjusts throughout the evening, creating the perfect atmosphere on its own? Or do you wish you could turn off the entire house with just one tap of a button? 

Today, ‘smart’ Bluetooth and Wi-Fi bulbs are widely available in stores. But there’s a difference between owning a few smart LEDs and having a truly smart, centralized lighting control system. 

When you partner with a professional lighting designer, you’ll gain access to premium fixtures and smart lighting solutions that are only available through certified dealers. You’ll receive a clean, polished installation with all your lights and motorized shades connected to one central hub.

But if you’re still itching to buy some equipment, watch YouTube tutorials, and install it yourself? Let’s walk through the differences between professional and DIY lighting systems. 

Glass-walled conference rooms are a hallmark of today’s modern, open-concept office. In urban Dallas offices—especially coworking spaces, design firms, and corporate headquarters—they offer sleek aesthetics, natural light, and a sense of transparency.

However, they come with two major acoustic challenges: echo and lack of privacy.

If your glass wall conference room in Dallas, TX, sounds more like a gymnasium than a meeting space, you’re not alone. Fortunately, solutions like acoustic treatments, sound masking, and AV integration can transform your space into a functional, private environment. Let’s explore how.

When ‘Smart’ Starts to Feel Complicated

Today’s homes are filled with technology designed to make life easier: smart bulbs, dimmers, apps, remotes, and voice assistants. But for many homeowners, the reality feels very different.

Instead of simplicity, there’s confusion. Which app controls the kitchen lights? Why do the shades use a different remote? Why are there six switches on one wall?

What appeared ‘smart’ initially quickly becomes fragmented. And over time, that friction impacts how you experience your home, turning everyday moments into small, repeated inconveniences.

Get the Benefits of Remote Work without the Downsides 

We love hybrid work. It’s incredibly convenient, widens talent pools, and helps people live their best lives without the stress of long commutes and finding local housing. 

But have we lost something without seeing each other in person? Face-to-face interactions lead to fewer misunderstandings, more effective communication, and stronger bonds. So, when your teams aren’t in person together, it’s critical to replicate the face-to-face experience the best way possible.

A well-designed video conferencing system not only ensures effective communication but also creates an inclusive environment where every team member feels equally valued. Let’s explore how advanced conferencing technology can improve hybrid communication and create a more welcoming company culture. 

How Hybrid Work Reveals the Weaknesses of Outdated Meeting Rooms 

In 2020, when most of the working world went online, we proclaimed that the future was remote. Many business owners worried their offices would forever sit empty. 

That didn’t turn out to be the case—instead, most businesses are operating on a hybrid model. Today, 50-52 percent of ‘remote capable’ jobs are working hybrid, with 22-30 percent fully remote and 20-22 percent entirely on-site. 

The Latest Hero of the Hybrid Workspace 

Is your office designed for the way people actually work today? 

If your Dallas/Ft. Worth workplace still relies primarily on large conference rooms, you may be missing one of the most effective collaboration spaces in modern offices: the huddle room.

Typically 150 to 200 square feet, these compact meeting spaces have quickly become some of the most valuable real estate in commercial environments. If your office hasn’t carved out space for huddle rooms yet, let’s explore why they’re gaining popularity across Texas businesses. 

Great Technology Is Only the Beginning

A conference room won't connect before your client presentation. A video call drops audio halfway through a pitch. In both cases, the equipment isn't really the problem. The lost time is. 

Any number of reasons could have caused the drop in performance. The network could be overloaded, or a device could have updated its firmware before your meeting, disrupting crucial integrations. For reliable, uninterrupted operation, your technology needs ongoing attention and maintenance to keep it performing as well as it did on day one. 

That's why the partner behind your technology matters as much as the technology itself. Whether your business features video conferencing AV, digital signage, security systems, or a Crestron control platform, you need a technology provider that keeps your business running without a hitch. Here’s what to look for. 

Faster, More Reliable Wi-Fi for the Modern Home 

Not too long ago, we were writing about the exciting new internet protocol, Wi-Fi 6. But as our homes become ever more connected—and Audio Video streaming quality improves—that puts even more demand on our Wi-Fi. 

Enter Wi-Fi 7, the newest iteration of Wi-Fi standards, now available on home networking devices from brands like WhyReboot and Ruckus. Wi-Fi 7 offers accelerated connectivity, solid reliability, and performance that only compares to wired networks. Streaming 8K, gaming online, and smart home devices are all improved with a Wi-Fi 7 network. 

Here’s what you can expect from a Wi-Fi 7 upgrade and why you’ll be thankful you switched. 

What Is Wi-Fi 7? How Is It Different? 

The new Wi-Fi 7 promises enhanced speeds and reliability. Intel describes Wi-Fi 7 as having “wired-like responsiveness.” It packs more data into each transmission with 320 MHz channels—double the size of Wi-Fi 6. 

Wi-Fi 7 arrives at a perfect time, as 4K and 8K streaming becomes even more prevalent. Wi-Fi 7 can easily handle high-quality 8K video streaming, so you can enjoy movie night without buffering and pixelation. 

How Networking Powers Today’s Lighting, Shading, & Automation Systems

Most people tend to focus on the fun, flashy aspects of smart home living: beautiful lighting scenes, motorized shades, whole-home audio, etc. And it’s understandable—that’s the part you want to experience in your home. 

But what many homeowners don't realize is that every one of these experiences depends on something less visible: a professionally designed network. In this article, we'll explore how networking infrastructure supports today's most sophisticated smart homes in and around Dallas–Fort Worth, and what homeowners should consider when building or upgrading their residences. 

You’ll Want These Features Installed Before Walls Are Finished Over 

It takes a village to build a new house or complete a renovation. There’s your general contractor, of course, but under them, you may have a carpenter, roofer, plumber, mason, electrician, etc. And if you’re planning to build a luxury home, there’s another contractor you’ll want: a technology integrator. 

The role of the integrator is to install technology systems that work together. Whether that’s whole-home audio, security systems, or smart lighting, it all connects back to one centralized system. At Texadia Systems in Dallas-Fort Worth, we discreetly run wires and install devices so that they fit seamlessly within your space. 

It’s best to loop in an integrator as early as possible during your home’s construction. Here’s why you’ll be grateful you did so. 

5 Reasons to Hire an Integrator for Your New Home Build 

1. You’ll Simplify How You Manage Your Home 

As an integrator, we aim to simplify how you interact with home technology, from lighting to thermostats. Your integrator will consolidate every technology feature into one control system, including: 

• Home security cameras 
• Alarms 
• Automated door locks 
• Automated gates 
• Whole-home audio 
• TVs and projectors 
• Outdoor audio-video 
• Smart LED lighting 
• Landscape lighting 
• Motorized window shades 
• Smart thermostats 
• Electric fireplaces 
• Garage doors 
• Ceiling fans 
• Energy management 
• And more! 

Smart home systems like Control4 provide all-in-one control of all these solutions—both from home and remotely. So even when you’re away from home, you’re connected. 

Why It’s Time to Ditch the Single-Router, Multi-App Smart Home Setup

Does this sound like your home? 

You have a single, consumer-grade Wi-Fi router that’s used on every floor and in every room, serving sometimes dozens of devices at once. Your entertainment, home office, and smart devices all rely on this router alone—and sometimes your technology stalls or becomes unresponsive. 

On top of that, every IoT device has its own app, cloud account, and even sometimes its own physical remote. You’re left juggling three or four apps for the smart bulbs, another for the security cameras, and a pile of remotes to control your TV and soundbar setup. It’s madness! 

This was the old way. Thankfully, there is now a smarter, simpler approach to living with home technology, with help from your local integrator. 

Circadian Lighting & Architectural Lighting Offer Illumination Designed for Your Home 

Your lights probably have pretty limited functions: turn on, turn off, maybe dim. But the light your kitchen needs at 7 AM differs completely from what your living room needs at 9 PM, and most homes never account for that. Circadian and architectural lighting help you design beautiful, versatile lighting for every corner of your home. 

Circadian lighting shifts color temperature and brightness through the day. Most people prefer spaces to mirror the changing sunlight: brighter and cooler in the morning, warmer and dimmer at night. Architectural lighting fixtures are installed within the ceiling, wall, or cove. You notice the light, but not the hardware behind it. 

If you're in Dallas-Fort Worth and planning a project, reach out to Texadia Systems for a lighting design consultation. 

Create a Versatile Media Room with Home Theater-Level AV 

Do you crave the ultra-wide screen, surround sound, and cinematic experience that a home theater provides—but aren’t sure if you have room for a home theater? Or maybe you do have the space yet wonder how often you’ll use a room with only a screen and seating. 

There’s a happy medium between dedicated home theaters and a living room setup, and that’s the media room. Perhaps a media room is a better fit for your Highland Park, TX home. You can still enjoy the high-quality audio and video setup you’d find in a home theater installation, but with more flexibility for other activities. 

Below we’ll share how you can create a multipurpose media room and what equipment to include. And to learn more about the world of home theaters, subscribe to our monthly newsletter here! 

Client Success Story: Transforming Tedious Tech Into a Smooth, Integrated Experience 

When a leading financial institution in Dallas/Ft. Worth expanded its office with a new floor, they knew they would need new AV technology. But after evaluating their existing systems, they realized it may not be as simple as adding on new tech. 

The problem? Their previous technology stack was anything but simple. Frequent reboots, inconsistent room experiences, and disjointed systems created barriers to productivity, and eroded their confidence in the technology.

That’s where Texadia Systems stepped in with a plan: simplify, standardize, and stabilize.

A luxury smart home isn't a one-time project. It's an investment that deserves ongoing care.

Installing a custom smart home is an exciting milestone. Your lighting responds to the time of day, music follows you from room to room, and every system works together with a simple tap or voice command.

But what many homeowners don't realize is that the installation is only the beginning.

Like any sophisticated home system, smart technology performs best when it's maintained over time. Software evolves, devices receive updates, and your family's routines naturally change. The homeowners who enjoy the most reliable, stress-free experience aren't necessarily the ones with the most technology. They're the ones with the right support behind it.

Enhance Your Healthcare Campus with Advanced AV Solutions

Effective communication is non-negotiable, especially for institutions that serve as hubs for innovation, collaboration, and ongoing training. One leading hospital in the Dallas/Fort Worth area recognized that its existing auditorium Audio Video setup no longer met the needs of modern medical education and leadership meetings.

They turned to Texadia Systems to deliver an AV transformation that would support their commitment to excellence without disrupting current infrastructure. The resulting state-of-the-art auditorium supports high-impact presentations, seamless collaboration, and user-friendly operation for medical professionals and administrators alike.
