Smart homes in Paddington
Paddington is Victorian terraces on narrow lots, almost all of it inside a heritage conservation area. Lighting control, security, intercoms and networks in Paddington: designed, installed and serviced from our base on the Northern Beaches.
What Paddington homes need
Every suburb has its own constraints. These are the ones that shape most of the work we see in and around Paddington.
- Narrow terraces with party walls and little ceiling space, where cable paths are planned room by room. More
- Heritage conservation controls that limit external change and favour discreet in-wall control over visible hardware. More
- Homes fitted with C-Bus or Dynalite in the 2000s that still work, but have failed touchscreens or lost programming. More
- Indoor-outdoor living around decks, pools and gardens, which calls for lighting and audio set up as scenes, not a row of switches. More
Building or renovating in Paddington
We design the system with your architect and builder, issue the cabling schedule before rough-in, then install, program and hand over with full documentation.
Something not working?
We service and repair systems in homes we didn't install, including C-Bus, Dynalite, KNX and Savant.

Smart homes in Paddington: common questions
Do you work in Paddington?
Yes. We design, install and service systems in Paddington and the surrounding suburbs, from our base on the Northern Beaches.
Can a narrow terrace be automated without opening every wall?
Usually. We plan routes through floor and roof voids and existing chases, and use wireless only where it's reliable.
Can you automate a heritage home in Paddington without damaging it?
Yes. We plan cable paths around original fabric, use existing voids and chases, and choose keypads that sit comfortably in period interiors. Where cabling truly isn't possible, reliable wireless devices fill the gap.
How much is a service call?
$330 to attend, including the first hour on site, then $198 an hour in 30 minute blocks. All prices include GST.
