Smart homes in Northwood
Northwood is a small peninsula on the Lane Cove River, with large homes on steep, treed blocks and waterfront properties at the point. Lighting control, security, intercoms and networks in Northwood: designed, installed and serviced from our base on the Northern Beaches.
What Northwood homes need
Every suburb has its own constraints. These are the ones that shape most of the work we see in and around Northwood.
- Steep blocks with garages at street level and gates that need intercom and camera coverage on long cable runs. More
- Big glass facing the water, where automated blinds manage afternoon glare and heat, then privacy after dark. More
- Large homes over several levels that one router can't cover, where a wired network with access points in every zone makes the difference. More
- Bushfire-prone blocks, where external equipment has to suit the construction standard and alerts matter when nobody is home. More
Building or renovating in Northwood
