Home Automation
Automation systems installed after the fact tend to fight the existing wiring. We integrate smart lighting, climate, and access control into the electrical design itself, so switches, circuits and controls work as one system.
Scope of work
- Automated lighting control and smart switch installation
- Centralized control panel and app integration
- Climate control automation
- Scene and scheduling configuration
- Integration with existing wiring or new-build circuits
Technical considerations
- Designed into the electrical layout before circuits are finalised
- Control system chosen so it keeps working if the internet connection drops
- Retrofit wiring routed to suit the building’s existing structure
How this work comes together
System design
Lighting, climate, and access control mapped against how the property is actually used and controlled.
Wiring & integration
Smart switches, control panels, and circuits wired into the existing or new-build electrical system.
Scene & scheduling setup
Scenes, schedules, and app control configured to match the agreed brief.
Commissioning
System tested end-to-end, including local operation, before handover.
Properties that typically need home automation
How we scope, install, and hand over the work
Assess
Site survey, load assessment, and diagnostics. We measure the actual conditions before proposing a scope.
Design
A written design based on the assessed load: circuit schedules and single-line diagrams you keep.
Install
Work executed by our certified team to the documented design, with safety isolation and site protocols observed throughout.
Test & Handover
Commissioning tests, compliance checks, and as-built documentation handed over. Not just a completed job, a documented one.
You get the paperwork, too
Depending on scope: installation records, circuit or equipment schedules, testing results, and as-built information where produced. See what we hand over on every project.
Common questions
How many cameras do I need?
Depends on the property and what you're trying to cover (entry points, perimeter, specific assets). We do a site survey and propose camera placement based on what actually needs covering.
Can I view footage remotely?
Yes. Remote viewing and alert setup on your phone or computer is part of a standard installation, alongside the NVR/DVR recording setup on site.
Can CCTV be integrated with gates or access control?
Yes, integration with automated gates and access control is a regular part of our security and automation scope. Mention it upfront if you want them working together.
Do you install electric fences?
Yes. Electric fence installation is part of our perimeter security scope, alongside automated gates, CCTV, and access control. We design and wire it as part of the same security system.
Can automation be added to an existing property, or only new builds?
Both. New builds let us design the wiring and control layout together from the start, which is cleaner, but retrofitting smart lighting, climate, and access control into an existing property is a regular part of our scope too. It just needs a site assessment first to plan around the existing circuits.
Will a power outage disable the automation system?
Depends on the setup. Most smart lighting and control panels need power to function, same as any electrical system, so we discuss backup priorities (generator or inverter integration) as part of the design if outage resilience matters to you.
Do you work with a specific smart home platform?
We design the electrical and control-panel infrastructure to work with your chosen app or platform, so you aren't locked into one. Tell us what you're trying to control (lighting, climate, access, scenes) and we scope the electrical side accordingly.
