A dedicated home theatre in a 12,000 square foot King City estate: a large screen on a blue wall with a tall speaker on each side

Two acres, set back thirty metres.

City zoning for the Bridle Path estate area sets minimums of about two acres per lot, 60 metres of frontage and a 30 metre front setback. Houses sit far back from the street, and that changes how security, WiFi and wiring have to work.

The gate is the front door

A video intercom at the gate, alerts when a car comes up the drive, and the gate opens from your phone.

Longer runs than copper can carry

Copper network cable is rated to 100 metres, so fibre in buried conduit carries the network to the gate, the pool house and the far cameras.

The grounds, not just the house

WiFi and cameras planned for the pool, the cabana and the back of the lot, where many properties meet the ravine.

Sources: the City of Toronto zoning by-law data and its setback exception for the estate area.

What we install on Bridle Path estates.

Finished, and out of the way.

From AVAS Automation projects, including that King City estate: the technology is everywhere, and almost none of it shows.

Before anyone digs on a Bridle Path lot.

Long runs on these lots mean trenches, and trenches here come with rules. This is what we check before anyone digs.

Ravine landSome lots back onto the West Don and Wilket Creek ravines. Trenching, camera post footings or new walls there can need a City ravine permit, a Toronto and Region Conservation Authority permit, or both. How to check your address.

Mature treesDigging inside the protection zone of a private tree 30 cm or more across the trunk needs a City tree permit. In ravines that zone doubles, so cable routes go wide, and nothing is strung on a tree.

Locates firstEvery trench starts with a utility locate. Ontario Dig Authority says it is free and required by law for any project that breaks ground.

Questions? Straight answers.

Short answers on security, WiFi and new builds.

What security works best for a Bridle Path estate?

On the Bridle Path, AVAS Automation plans security from the gate inward: a video intercom at the gate, alerts when a car comes up the drive, and cameras with lights and a siren covering the back of the lot, the pool and every door. Everything shows in one Control4 app, with codes for family, staff and guests.

How do you get WiFi across a large property, out to the gate and pool house?

On a large property like a Bridle Path estate, copper network cable is rated to 100 metres, so AVAS Automation runs fibre in buried conduit to the gate, the pool house and distant cameras, then adds outdoor access points. The grounds and every floor share one network, looked after by the team that installed it.

Can you wire a new Bridle Path home before drywall?

AVAS Automation pre-wires new Bridle Path homes with your builder, designer and electrician from the first drawings, so cable, conduit and fibre for the house, the gate, the pool house and the grounds go in once and stay hidden. It is the best moment to plan a dedicated theatre and whole home audio.
