URC Home Automation Installation in Purley

Summary

A multifaceted smart home solution

At a home in the prestigious Webb Estate in Purley, we installed a URC home automation system integrating security, audiovisual, Wi-Fi and utilities services.

To strengthen the property’s security, we installed a 16 channel 4K Hikvision CCTV system and a double-panelled Comelit video door entry system.

We also fitted a Nest lighting system as well as eight televisions allowing 4K-resolution imagery to be distributed around all main rooms of the house.

The challenge

A communication problem waiting to be unravelled

As residents on the Webb Estate encounter very poor mobile phone reception, we implemented a mobile phone signal system which significantly improved this particular property’s mobile reception.

As the property’s residents often struggled to play entertainment content intuitively, we opted for a control system from URC, one of the biggest names in smart home control.

We installed a Sky Q dish, an aerial and DAB radio – but the AV system we provided was also integrated with Apple TV, YouTube and Netflix services.

Project Highlights

  • URC Total 2.0 Control Solution
  • Luton Lighting
  • Gate Automation
  • Comelit Door Entry System
  • 16 Channel 4K Hikvision CCTV
  • Surround Sound
  • Cinema Room
  • Ubiquiti Wi-Fi
  • AV / TV Distribution
  • Nest Heating Control
  • Mobile Phone Signal System
  • Customised Cinema Seats

The Solution

In total, we installed 66 data points/cables and 12 aerial coax points around the house. In large part due to laying the infrastructure cabling beneath floorboards, loft spaces and joists, we could create a smart home system rich in functionality while still seamless to use.

As we integrated the security cameras, intercom system and AV system into one main URC server sited in a rack-based data cabinet with other media sources, the eight main rooms were each left with a TV, 2-4 speakers, lights and a URC control device as the only visible smart home elements.

However, in each room, the user could open and close gates, view CCTV, turn lights on and off, change mood lighting and control room temperature – all from the same URC tablet or smart device. This device could also conveniently show visitors who had pressed the intercom bell.

Versed Automation
5.0 OUT OF 5

I recently had the pleasure of working with Verserd Automation, they supplied and installed Lutron lighting and a cinema room. The team was incredibly knowledgeable and professional, ensuring that every aspect of the installation was seamless. The lighting system has transformed the ambience of our home, I couldn’t be happier with the service and products offered. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to elevate their home.

I am over the moon that the Starlink internet system was completed in time for Christmas, as we had visitors coming and no internet coverage. Living in the outskirts of Llandudno, we were only able to achieve 8mbps. However, thanks to Barry’s recommendation and the team at Versed Automation, we are now getting 280mbps throughout the whole house. Everyone’s happy!

Len

They installed 13 Unifi CCTV cameras, smart floodlights, and set up a Unifi network which included 5 wireless access points, with great WiFi coverage even in our garden now. Yamen went above and beyond by recommending, supplying and installing a fully integrated home automation system. The URC system is amazing and would highly recommend Versed automation 5 stars.

Kingsley Northwood

We inherited a “smart house” from previous owners, which stopped working a few days after we moved in. Versedautomation was brilliant at sorting everything out, in spite of having to work on someone else’s preinstalled system, offered very effective solutions, listened to all our requests and even sorted out what Sky engineers couldn’t do. Thank you!

Anna Sizova

Solid planning and spec and seamless execution and snagging. Great service all round

Mark Summerhayes

Versed were great. I had recently moved into a property with speakers throughout, no amps and unlabelled wires left by the previous owner, as well as a Unify wifi network that I didnt have full control of, as well as a few other tech things i was struggling with. Tried a few other companies who were totally uninterested in helping. Versed were more than happy. Yamen came round and was super helpful, working out what all the wiring was, showing me how everything worked. Particularly pleased with their cost effective solution to sourcing amps, getting the right ones for each room (bedroom vs basement cinema room) rather than just suggesting the most expensive for all. Really personal service, able to whatsapp and just generally very helpful for me who is not great at this stuff! Even popped back when I was struggling with one of the rooms. All working great, couldnt recommend more highly. Will be using them im sure when I want to upgrade anything! Thanks Yamen and team.

Glenn Passley

We had been having WiFi issues, Luke could not have been more helpful in sorting them out and making sure that everything was working fully before leaving, many thanks

Larissa

So I am very late on this review (sorry time flys when you are a new dad) - but a few months back Versedautomation installed 13 Unifi CCTV cameras, smart flood light and setup a Unifi network with 5 wireless access points and multiple switches for me in Orpington. They have done a brilliant job, even managing to get hold of the equipment somehow when everyone was out of stock! The system is still running flawlessly, the cables are all well managed and hidden away (even tidied some of my own bad cable management). We now have great WiFi in the garden when working from home, my cars that get updates over WiFi now finally have a perfect signal and actually get updates and the cameras give great piece of mind.
