Indicative installed ranges for typical Dubai properties. The real drivers are property size, zone count, platform & whether we are wiring a new build or working around finished interiors. A takeover or rescue of an existing system is usually far less than starting again. Read how rescues work.

Questions

Asked often.

How much does home automation cost in Dubai?

For a professionally engineered system: focused single-system installs from around AED 25,500, most full villa projects between AED 76,500 & AED 357,000, and estate or penthouse scale work beyond that. The honest answer for your villa comes after a survey.

Why is there such a wide range?

Property size, platform choice, how many systems integrate & whether it is a new build or a retrofit. Two villas on the same street can sit at opposite ends of a tier.

Do you give fixed quotes?

After a survey, yes. We do not price a property we have not seen, and we would be careful with anyone who does. These ranges exist so the numbers never surprise you.

Is a cheaper consumer system worth it?

Alexa & app-based kit has its place, but it is not what we install. Our systems are engineered, documented & supported for years. That is what the difference buys.
