Frequently Asked Questions

Explore the most common questions from clients across Kuwait — whether you're planning a luxury villa or a large-scale commercial building.

01 Why choose KNX + DALI over Wi-Fi solutions?

Wired KNX/DALI systems deliver superior reliability, noise immunity, fast response, and professional diagnostic feedback — essential for Kuwait’s luxury villas and commercial buildings.

02 Can KNX control DALI lights?

Yes. A KNX–DALI gateway maps DALI groups/scenes to KNX, so lighting integrates with HVAC, blinds, sensors, and logic.

03 Is it possible to retrofit?

For new builds we recommend wired KNX/DALI. For retrofits we offer hybrid designs using wireless endpoints with KNX bridge strategies.

04 Do you support Arabic interfaces?

Absolutely. We design bilingual (EN/AR) UIs and supply keypads with Arabic legends where needed.
