URC

URC — Universal Remote Control — is an American control specialist founded in 1991 and headquartered in Harrison, New York. For more than three decades it has built whole-home control systems trusted by professional integrators the world over. Its purpose is simple but transformative: to bring lighting, climate, audio-visual, security, blinds and access together under a single, intuitive interface that anyone in the household can use.

URC’s flagship Total Control platform turns a house full of separate technologies into one coherent whole. A single handheld remote, in-wall touchscreen, keypad, tabletop controller or phone app can set a scene, dim the lights, draw the blinds, choose music or cue a film all at once — and it works happily alongside voice assistants too. Built around a networked system controller, it scales gracefully from a single room to an entire estate, and because it is professionally programmed rather than self-installed, it is tailored precisely to how you actually live.

URC is Hidden Home Technology’s control system of choice, and we are an officially certified URC dealer designing and commissioning bespoke Total Control systems from scratch. You can see one at work in our international award-winning whole-home installation in London, where a complete URC Total Control system runs the entire house. Whether you are starting with one room or automating a whole home, we can show you what thoughtful control feels like. Arrange a consultation at our Bath base to begin.
