Smart Home Installation

Smart home automation – the intelligent integration of electronic systems, to make your home work as hard as you!

Our busy clients need their homes to work as hard as they do. Poorly integrated technology causes frustration and, worse, when it doesn’t work at all, it can overshadow your enjoyment of your home. We understand how annoying this can be for homeowners. We have spent over 25 years providing smart home automation systems that are reliable and robust to the needs of busy families.

Smart Home Automation – Systems Integration

Smart home automation systems typically integrate separate sub-systems into a cohesive, intelligent and user-friendly central system. Examples of electronic systems that can be integrated:

  • Lighting Control
  • Audio and Video
  • HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning)
  • Door/Gate Entry
  • Security
  • Fire
  • Flood

Environmental Control

In a smart home system that has been well designed, each sub-system will work well, relative to others. For example, if you turn on air conditioning in a zone where a window is open, the system will alert you. Or perhaps when the doorbell rings, your music will mute, so that you can hear. For safety, the lights could turn on if a security alert is detected.

Although each sub-system is distinct, the control system brings them together so that they operate, cohesively, via an intuitive user interface. Smart home automation isn’t about consolidating the control of each area onto one universal device, it should be much more intelligent.

Knowledge and Experience

We have been delivering smart home automation/control systems for over 25 years and have also come across many poorly designed systems in that time. Any well-designed system will remove the complexity of the technology for the user, not add a burden or leave them looking for a work-around. We can advise on how to improve existing systems, to remove all of the frustration and disappointment.

Imagine This has the underpinning knowledge and experience needed to deliver exceptional advanced control systems. For over 25 years, we have been designing and delivering systems of all shapes and sizes. We have received industry awards for our work and have been recognised by our peers as one of the industry leaders.

When we integrate sub-systems such as HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning) and circadian rhythm lighting, we can regulate these environmental factors for your health and wellbeing, comfort, and safety.

For example, for wellbeing, we can adjust the colour temperature of your lighting during the course of the day, to synchronise with the human circadian rhythm. For safety, we can turn off air handling, if a fire event is detected. For your security, CCTV images can be streamed to TVs, touchpanels, smart devices etc.

Our systems are designed to give you complete control of your home from anywhere in the world, via touchpanels, smartphones or your laptop/PC. We put the control of your home at your fingertips, wherever you are.

Multi Room Audio

Multi Room Audio & Video

Audio and video can be distributed throughout the home for enjoyment everywhere.

We focus on managing your media content and making it available when and where you need it, perhaps that’s a podcast in the bathroom in the morning, background music during a party, or high-fidelity audio with a glass of something fabulous in the evening. Our multi-room audio and video systems are professionally designed and incorporate leading technologies from manufacturers such as Crestron and Kaleidescape.

Audio and Video Throughout the Home

However you prefer to have your loudspeakers; on-wall, in-wall, in-room, plaster-in, with artwork, behind acoustic fabric etc, we will always give you good advice and great product options for your home.

Our multi-room video systems provide you with high definition video throughout the home. Whether you want to view your favourite TV channel, CCTV images, or a film from a central movie server, you will be able to stop play in one room, and resume it in another.

And, with a smart control system, you can use a remote, smart device or touchpanel to control the video (or indeed the TV, lighting, security, heating, ventillation, air-conditioning etc).

A convenient, high-performance solution for the modern lifestyle,

What is the next step?

Simply book a no-obligation consultation, in person or via web-call, to talk about your needs. Often, the fist consultation involves a high-level discussion, where we try to gain an understanding of your lifestyle, needs and plans for your home and technology.

After that point, we work to create an outline design and a set of deliverables for the project. This also allows us to present a budget cost, to make sure we are on track to meet your expectations.

As soon as you are happy to proceed, we move into a more detailed design phase, working closely with you, and your contractors, to create the perfect plan for your smart home automation. This collaborative approach continues throughout the installation, programming, and commissioning phases of the project, to make certain we deliver a first-class outcome for you, your family and your home.

“We commissioned Imagine This for the home automation and cinema of a contemporary home new build. Prior to selecting Imagine This, we met with numerous other notable companies. However, it was the personable service and knowledge of Guy and Karin that led us to go with Imagine This, and it was certainly the right decision.

Guy's knowledge and enthusiasm for his work are incredible. The team are also very genuine, treating everyone like their own family. It could have been easy to overcharge and recommend unnecessary products, but the team’s honesty and experience stopped our wild ideas from running away with us and ensured we got the best value for money.

They also provide ongoing support, which is excellent. With such a vast amount of complicated equipment, things can inevitably go wrong, but the team are always at hand. Imagine This has been so great, we have commissioned additional jobs, such as in our business, and would highly recommend them to anyone”
