Villa · Detached house
Network, WiFi, cameras and access control for villas
Connect and protect your whole home: from the router to the pool, from the gate to the living room, with a single system you control from your phone.
In short: In a villa we install a UniFi gateway in a network cabinet, PoE switches, indoor and outdoor access points, UniFi Protect cameras with local recording, a video doorbell and access control for door, gate and garage, all managed from one app.
Common situations
Does any of this sound familiar?
- WiFi doesn't reach the upper floor, the garden or the pool.
- You want to see what's happening at home when you're away, without paying fees.
- Too many garage remotes and keys handed out.
- You want to open for a courier or family from your phone.

Things to bear in mind
Plan the cabling
In new builds or refurbishments conduits and boxes are planned; in finished homes we find discreet routes.
Privacy
Cameras must not capture the public road beyond what's strictly necessary; we orient and mask zones.
Existing operator
We check the gate motor before connecting it to the Gate Hub.

View serviceGates & garages
Open the gate or garage with your phone, a card or your car's licence plate, and stop handing out remotes nobody keeps track of.
View serviceLicence plate recognition
Log the plates that come and go and open automatically for authorised vehicles, without remotes or cards.

Questions about villas and detached houses
Can you install WiFi in a villa?
Yes. We design indoor coverage per floor and outdoor coverage for garden, terrace and pool, with wired access points and a single network name.
How many cameras does a villa need?
It depends on the perimeter and entrances. Typically entrances (pedestrian and vehicle), main façades and garden areas; we confirm it during the visit.
Can I open the gate with my phone?
Yes, with UniFi Access and the Gate Hub connected to your operator, and also by licence plate with a compatible camera.
Shall we design your villa's installation?
We visit the property and propose a complete solution, in phases if you prefer.
