How we do it
We get smart devices working together in one place where possible, on a Wi-Fi network that suits them. Many smart devices need a 2.4 GHz connection and a stable signal, so we check the Wi-Fi first - it is behind most smart home problems.
Then we set up the devices, group them by room, and build schedules and routines that are simple and reliable. We work on plug-in and battery devices and the smart side of hard-wired gear; wiring into the mains is work for a registered electrician.
For businesses
Smart plugs and schedules also suit small offices and shops - heaters, signage and lights that switch off on their own after hours.
At home
At home, the most useful setups are smart lighting on schedules, a video doorbell, a smart lock with codes for family, and a robot vacuum that actually knows the house.

What a visit looks like
When you book smart home setup in Onehunga, you tell us what's going on and we reply with a time that suits you and a price. Nothing starts until you're happy with both.
On the day, the technician arrives, looks at the problem in person and confirms the plan with you before starting. If something turns out different from what was expected - a part is needed, or the cause is somewhere else - we stop and agree the change with you first.
When the work is done we test it with you, show you what was changed, and leave the area tidy. For business jobs we note what we did, so there is a record for whoever looks after your IT next.
Pricing
Every smart home setup job is priced before work starts. The price depends on what's involved - the size of the site, the equipment, and whether parts are needed - so the quickest way to a number is to tell us about the job on the booking form.
There is no contract and no monthly fee. You book the job you need and pay for that job.
