Smart Home
Robust home automation or a flexible smart home: together we choose what suits your home, and we install it.
Smart control over your environment
A smart home can work wirelessly: separate smart devices, connected via a hub or app. Home automation can be hard-wired and built into the home. Which one suits you depends on your home and your plans; below you can see the difference at a glance. We help you choose, install it and explain how to use it smartly.
Lighting
Lighting that switches on mood, presence or time of day, via Homey or a home automation system.
Climate
Control heating, cooling and ventilation from one central system. With a smart thermostat or a more extensive climate control, matched to your habits.
Security
Integrate smart cameras, motion sensors and alerts into your system. Whether you are at home or on the go: on your smartphone or tablet you see what is happening in your home or business.
The difference at a glance
Both technologies have the same goal, but a different approach. The choice mainly depends on your home and your plans.

From smart choice to complete installation
Whether you choose a smart home system or full home automation: at Bluefeed we guide you from idea to handover. At handover we test together that everything works as agreed.
Clear comparison and decision support
We put the two options side by side and decide together what suits your home, your plans and your budget.
Installation and integration
We install a base station (such as Homey, Qbus or Loxone) and connect the parts you want: lighting, security, climate control, roller shutters, gates and more. We connect everything and programme it.
Updates, expansion and service
By arrangement we take care of updates, expansion and service. Whether you start with a few smart functions or go for full automation straight away. You can expand later.
What we offer
Comfort, security and energy in one system, matched to your home or business.
Lighting
Smart lighting that switches automatically on time, presence or mood. Can be linked to Homey or a home automation system such as Qbus or Loxone.
Smart heating control with tado°, for example, matched to your habits. We link cooling and ventilation where the system allows it.
Shutters and screens
With suitable sensors and motors, you can set roller shutters and screens to respond to sunlight or temperature. That keeps the sun out in summer without you having to think about it. Works well as part of your smart home or home automation system.
Security and cameras
Smart cameras, motion detectors and access systems let you view images and notifications remotely, with an internet connection and the right settings. With Ajax Security you get notifications in one app.
Link your solar panels, home battery and charging point into one smart energy system, if the devices are suitable for it. Charging and storing electricity is controlled automatically, based on your consumption, generation and tariffs. That way you can use more of your own electricity.
Dashboard & monitoring
A central dashboard brings the connected systems together in one overview. You see your energy use and the status of your devices, at home or remotely.
