Lutron HomeWorks QSX
The Lutron system we use for a larger house: every room, the shades, and the path outside, on keypads that belong to the architecture.
For the Whole Property
HomeWorks QSX is the step up from a few dimmers. Keypads go at the doors you actually use. Scenes cover morning, evening, and away. Shades live on those same buttons.
Keypads Instead of a Row of Switches
An engraved keypad replaces a bank of switches. One button can settle a floor. The app is there when you want it. The keypad still works if the internet does not.
Shades on the Same Buttons
Afternoon sun off a lake or a mountain view is the daily glare. Shades tied to the lighting scenes soften it, and they give you a dark room for a movie without a second system to learn.
New Build or a Finished House
On a new build we plan the processor, the keypads, and the shade pockets with your builder before drywall. In a finished house we will tell you honestly if RadioRA 3 is the better fit.

Questions
A few questions about this system.
Is HomeWorks QSX only for new construction?
No. It is for a larger house, new or already built. New construction is when the wire is easiest.
Do the keypads work if the network is down?
Yes. Lights and keypads keep working on their own. SoulCraft EMS watches the eero network, not the Lutron system.
How is HomeWorks different from RadioRA 3?
RadioRA 3 covers most whole homes. HomeWorks QSX is the larger-property system, with finer keypads and room for a more complex shade and lighting plan.
Can shades share buttons with the lights?
Yes. That is how we program it.
