Overview

Smart devices come in endless models and spec sheets, and the wrong pick either won’t fit or never quite works the way you want. We learn what you need, your budget and your space, recommend suitable products, and explain the trade-offs and any ongoing fees. Once you approve, we buy them at cost with the original receipt and no markup, then install, configure and show you how to use them.

Who it is for

  • Families who don’t want to research models or risk buying the wrong one
  • Small businesses that want cameras, network and storage bought and installed in one go
  • Anyone who bought a device and can’t get it working right
  • Adult children setting up devices in their parents’ home

What we do

The work this service usually covers. The exact scope is set out in the written quote after an on-site assessment.

  1. Needs and recommendations

    A few suitable options for your home or store’s size, use and budget, with the differences and any subscription fees explained. We aren’t tied to any brand.

  2. Cameras and video doorbells

    Cameras, recorders and video doorbells for homes and stores, chosen, installed and set up for viewing on your phone.

  3. Smart and security locks

    We measure the door before choosing the lock, so you don’t end up with one that won’t fit.

  4. NAS and backup storage

    Family photos or office files kept in one place and backed up on a schedule, with a NAS and drives sized for the job.

  5. Routers and mesh Wi-Fi

    A router or mesh system chosen for your floors, square footage and walls, to reach the rooms the signal keeps missing.

  6. Bought at cost, installed on site

    Bought only with your approval, at cost with the original receipt; installation, setup and walkthrough are billed as labor.

How it works

Nothing starts until you approve the quote, and parts or equipment are bought only with your OK.

  1. Tell us what you need

    What you want to solve, roughly what the home or store is like, and your budget. Farther areas: please book in advance.

  2. Recommendation and written quote

    We recommend products and estimate the equipment cost and the installation work. Where the site matters, such as camera positions or Wi-Fi coverage, you get a written quote after an on-site assessment.

  3. Bought once you approve

    After you confirm the models and the quote, we buy them at cost with the original receipt and no markup.

  4. Installed, explained, itemized

    We install, configure and test on site, and show you the daily use. The invoice itemizes labor, the trip charge, pass-through costs and equipment receipts.

Questions

Common questions about cost, scheduling and scope.

Do you mark up the products you buy for me?

No. Products are at cost with the original purchase receipt, and bought only with your approval. Installation and setup are billed as labor, and the trip charge and pass-through costs work as described on the Pricing page.

Can I buy the products myself?

Yes. We can give you a list of the models we suggest; you buy them and we come and install them. If you’ve already bought something, send us the model first so we can check it suits your home or store.

How do I choose and order a product?

Tell us what you need by phone, WeChat or email, and we suggest a few suitable models and explain the differences. Where the site matters, such as camera positions or Wi-Fi coverage, we assess it on site first and give you a written quote. Once you confirm the models and the quote, we buy them at cost with the original receipt and install them on site.

What if a device is faulty?

Returns and after-sales service for the device itself are handled by the manufacturer and the retailer under their own policies, and the original receipt we give you can be used for that. We can help you contact them if needed. If you need us on site to remove, reinstall or set up a device again, it is billed as a normal visit (trip charge plus labor).

How is the cost worked out?

The trip charge is based on round-trip mileage on the Google Maps fastest route. Labor is billed by actual time, with a 1-hour minimum per visit and 15-minute increments after that. Tolls, the Manhattan congestion toll and parking are passed through at actual cost with no markup and itemized; parts are at cost with the receipt and bought only with your approval. You get a written quote after an on-site assessment. See the Pricing page for details.
