Custom Home Theater Installations in AL, FL & GA
Settle into a room where the picture, sound, lighting, and seating come together around the way you love to watch. Since 1989, GHT Group has helped homeowners enjoy technology with thoughtful design, personal attention, and support that continues after installation.
Your Own Private Custom Home Theater Installation
Enjoy movies, concerts, sports, and games in a space created around your preferences. A thoughtfully designed private theater brings together an engaging picture, immersive sound, comfortable seating, and controls that make it easy to get started.
GHT Group designs and installs custom home theaters for homeowners in Atlanta, Buckhead, and Sandy Springs, Georgia; Birmingham, Alabama; and the Florida Panhandle, including Santa Rosa Beach and 30A. Whether you’re finishing an existing room or planning a new home, we begin by understanding your space, your priorities, and what you enjoy watching.
As your home theater company, we coordinate the details from design through installation and calibration. After the final walkthrough, our dedicated service team remains available to help you keep enjoying the experience.





What Makes a Home Theater?
A memorable home theater comes from planning the room and its technology together. Each choice, from the lighting to the seating, contributes to how comfortably you watch, how clearly you hear, and how easily everything works.

Lighting
Set the atmosphere for a film, keep pathways visible, and bring the lights up when it’s time to gather or clean. We coordinate lighting with your screen, seating, and interiors, while motorized shading can help manage daylight in windowed rooms.
GHT’s two dedicated in-house lighting designers develop renderings, CAD drawings, and photometric plans for lighting projects. With layered lighting design, fixtures, and control planned together, your theater can transition naturally between movie nights, gaming, and watching sports with friends.

Acoustical Treatments
Clear dialogue and convincing sound depend on more than the speakers. We consider the room’s surfaces, seating, and layout when planning acoustic treatments that help manage reflections and support a balanced listening experience.
Treatments can also complement the room’s appearance through carefully selected finishes and placement. When limiting sound transfer to nearby rooms is a priority, we discuss sound-isolation needs during planning and coordinate the appropriate scope with your construction team.

Control
Bring your theater together through a seamless control experience. A remote, touchscreen, or mobile interface can give you convenient access to your entertainment, lighting, and other integrated features.
We personalize scenes around how you use the room. A movie-night command can dim selected lights, turn on the display, and prepare your preferred source. We also consider the networking behind your streaming services, so connectivity is part of the plan from the beginning.
At handoff, we walk you through the controls and answer questions about everyday use.

Sound
Hear the quiet details in dialogue and feel drawn into the action with a professional surround sound installation. We plan speaker and subwoofer placement based on the room layout, seating positions, and the experience you want to create.
Depending on the design, speakers may be integrated into walls and ceilings or incorporated as visible features. Our team coordinates their placement with your interiors, then calibrates the finished system to suit the room.

Projectors
A projector can bring a large cinematic image into your home, but choosing one starts with understanding the space. We consider screen size, viewing distance, room lighting, and installation requirements when recommending a 4K projection solution.
Whether you enjoy feature films, live sports, or long gaming sessions, the goal is a picture that fits your room and viewing habits. Visit our Atlanta Experience Center to explore theater demonstrations before making your decision.

Screens
Your screen and projector should be selected together. We help you evaluate screen size, material, placement, and the lighting conditions in your room to find an appropriate combination.
A fixed screen can anchor a dedicated cinema, while a retractable screen can offer flexibility in a room used for other activities. Where appropriate, we can discuss ambient-light-rejecting screen options alongside strategies for controlling light in the space.

Custom Seating
Get comfortable with selecting seating selected around your room, family, and preferred viewing positions. We help you consider seating layout, sightlines, finishes, and the space needed to move comfortably through the theater.
Choose from options such as leather loungers or upholstered recliners, with accessories available to suit your preferences. Cup holders, tray tables, reading lights, and other features can make the room more convenient for everyday enjoyment.

Star Ceilings
Give your theater a distinctive atmosphere by incorporating a star ceiling into the room’s design. Depending on the selected system, options may include adjustable light effects and shooting-star details.
We coordinate the ceiling feature with the theater's lighting and overall appearance. If acoustic performance is also a priority, we evaluate the selected ceiling materials as part of the broader treatment plan.

Custom Designed for Your Space
Your theater should feel like it belongs in your home. We work with your architect, builder, and interior designer to coordinate technology with the room’s layout, finishes, lighting, and furnishings.
For a new build, that means bringing technology decisions into the planning process. For an existing home, it means understanding the room’s opportunities and limitations before recommending a solution. In either case, we consider how the space will be used and what matters most to you.
You don’t need to arrive with an equipment list. Tell us about the experience you want and what you’re comfortable investing. We’ll explain your options and help you make informed decisions.
