Wilsons Systems was founded in 1985 as a traditional electrical contracting business based in Lytham St Annes on the Fylde Coast. In those early days, the work centred on domestic rewires, commercial electrical installations, and the everyday maintenance that homes and businesses across Blackpool and the surrounding areas depended upon.
Over the following four decades, the company evolved alongside the technology landscape. As CCTV, intruder alarms, and structured data cabling became increasingly important to homeowners and commercial clients alike, Wilsons Systems expanded its capabilities to meet that demand. We invested in training, partnerships, and specialist equipment — always staying ahead of the curve.
The introduction of smart home automation marked a turning point. Recognising the potential of whole-home control platforms like Control4, we became a Control4 Authorised Dealer on the Fylde Coast — a distinction we hold to this day. This allows us to design, install, and programme bespoke smart home systems that integrate lighting, audio, video, climate, and security into a single, intuitive interface.
Today, Wilsons Systems is a true multi-discipline technology company. We remain family-run, still proudly based in Lytham St Annes, and still committed to the same values we started with: honest advice, quality workmanship, and long-term relationships with our clients. Whether the project is a straightforward consumer unit upgrade or a complete smart home build worth tens of thousands of pounds, every job receives the same level of care and attention.
What sets us apart is how we work with our clients. We listen — properly — to your ideas, requirements, and concerns before offering professional advice tailored to your property and budget. Attention to detail runs through everything we do, from the initial consultation and system design right through to the final handover. Your satisfaction is not just important to us — it is the measure by which we judge every project.
