Customizable Controls
Basalte offers a variety of sleek control options that you can make your own.
Touch Displays
Basalte’s sophisticated touchscreens provide intuitive access to every device and room of your house. Lena is Basalte’s flagship touch display, with a full HD 10.1-inch screen. The Ellie mini touch screen is only 5.5 inches, while the Lisa has an even smaller 3.1-inch square display. You don’t have to carry your smartphone around the house to control your smart home system—instead, these discreet, stylish control panels are ready and waiting on your walls or table mounts.
Basalte smart home touch screens are available in a variety of metallic finishes and colors, including brushed aluminum, bronze, brushed nickel, brass, rosé, and fer forgé (wrought iron) in various colors.
Wall Keypads
Basalte knows how to make a keypad. Its sleek, avant-garde wall keypad, Fibonacci, features a touch-sensitive surface with a four or two-button design. Engravings can be customized to say whatever you want, whether that’s simple “Lights” and “Shades” for on/off control or “Morning” and “Night” to activate custom settings.
Sentido is Basalte’s “light switch reinvented” with a square, four or two-button design and internal temperature sensor that communicates with your thermostat. Lights, shades, music, and more can be quickly activated with a tap on these innovative wall plates.
Elegant iPad Mounts
iPads and tablets are a popular way to manage smart homes, and Basalte offers a sturdy, polished way to keep them in place. The Eve Plus table base stands your tablet upright for easy access on a tabletop. Alternatively, the wall base uses integrated magnets to hold your tablet flush to the wall. Table and wall bases are available in customizable colors and finishes to suit any room’s aesthetic.
