The Grounds That Earn Every Season
The outdoor spaces of a Westlake estate look more like a resort than a yard — infinity-edge pools with swim-up bars, outdoor kitchens with commercial appliances, covered pavilions with stone fireplaces, putting greens, tennis courts, mature landscaping that has had a decade to settle. TruDefinition brings these spaces alive with outdoor displays, landscape audio that spans the whole property, automated pool and spa control, and architectural lighting that turns the grounds on at sunset. Bring the wine.
In Vaquero and Glenwyck Farms, our outdoor projects are built for year-round enjoyment across the full North Texas climate. Every component carries the right IP rating. Landscape speakers vanish among the plantings. Outdoor TVs survive direct sun. And all of it integrates with your indoor automation for one app, one panel, one moment.

The Frustrations We Hear Most
- No real outdoor music — guests gathering around a portable speaker by the pool
- A consumer TV moved under a covered patio, fogging and failing in one season
- Pool equipment controlled only at the pad — no preheating the spa from inside
- Landscape lighting on dumb timers that never adjust for the season
- Wi-Fi that ends at the back door
The Questions People Actually Ask.
Can landscape audio really cover a multi-acre Westlake estate?
Yes. Steinway Lyngdorf landscape networks with 8, 12, or more satellite speakers distributed across the grounds, plus buried subs for even bass. Coverage stretches across the largest Vaquero properties, and no single speaker becomes the visual focus.
What outdoor TVs can handle direct Texas sun exposure?
For fully exposed locations, full-sun rated Samsung at 2,000-plus nits with anti-glare coatings and sealed enclosures. A crisp image at noon in August.
How does pool automation integrate with a Westlake estate's smart home?
Your pool controller comes onto Savant. Heating, pumps, spa jets, water features, color-changing lights — all in the same app and panels you already use. Preheat the spa from your bedroom, fire the waterfall from the kitchen, or one scene that activates the whole pool party.
Do you handle the landscaping work needed to bury outdoor speakers and cables?
Yes. Trenching, conduit, speaker placement — all of it. For established Westlake landscapes with mature plantings, we work carefully and coordinate with your landscaping company on restoration. Sod and mulch are part of our scope.
