MERRICK, NEW YORK · OUTDOOR TECHNOLOGY PROJECT

A backyard built for music, lighting and outdoor entertainment.

Sentry Audio Video completed a large outdoor technology project at a home in Merrick, New York. The work combined backyard audio, low-voltage landscape lighting, security, outdoor televisions and networking, with color-changing RGB lighting running along the fence lines and throughout the fences.

This was an extensive installation carried out over a substantial period. The finished backyard brings multiple outdoor systems into the same project scope, from music and television to the lighting that defines the space after dark.

The photo collection shows the same backyard with different lighting colors, including the poolside lounge, deck railings and outdoor kitchen. Fence-line lighting forms a continuous visual element around the patio, while the illuminated deck edge and kitchen surfaces give each area its own presence after dark.
