Installation is where smart homes succeed or stall

Buying the right gear is only half the job. Poor installs create unreliable automations, safety risks, and a system nobody in the house wants to use.

  • DIY and risky wiring

    Neutrals, loads, and DB boards are not YouTube-safe territory. One wrong connection and you get flicker, trips, or worse.

    • Neutral mix-upsNeutral mix-ups
    • Overloaded circuitsOverloaded circuits
    • Messy DB workMessy DB work
  • App soup and cloud lock-in

    Every brand ships its own app. Without a single brain, automations stay fragmented and break when the cloud hiccups.

    • Five apps, zero unityFive apps, zero unity
    • Cloud-only setupsCloud-only setups
    • Account spaghettiAccount spaghetti
  • ‘Installed’ but unfinished

    Hardware on the wall is not a working system. Missing names, no HA join, and no handoff leave you guessing forever.

What a proper install delivers

You get hardware that is safe, stable, and actually usable — not a pile of apps and guesswork.

  • Clean physical install

    • Mount & terminations

      Devices fixed properly with correct load and neutral handling.

    • DB & cable hygiene

      Work you can open later without unraveling a rat's nest.

    Safe, tidy, supportable

  • Configured & named

    • Room-clear labels

      Every channel labelled so the household can find and use it.

    • Platform membership

      Devices on Wi-Fi / Matter / Zigbee as designed — not orphaned in a vendor app.

    Ready for real use

  • Ready for automations

    • Baseline entities

      Entities visible and testable so scenes and automations can start.

    • Handoff pack

      What was installed, where it lives, and how to reach support.

    HA-friendly from day one

What’s included

A complete install path from site check to handoff.

  • Site & circuit check

    We confirm power, neutrals, Wi-Fi/Zigbee reach, and which loads are safe for the chosen Shelly/Sonoff hardware before anything is opened.

  • Hardware mounting & wiring

    Clean mounting, correct terminations, and load-aware wiring so relays and dimmers run cool and trip-free under real use.

  • Network & platform setup

    Devices join your preferred stack — local Wi-Fi, Matter, Zigbee, or Home Assistant — instead of dying in a vendor-only cloud.

  • Naming, testing & handoff

    Room-clear names, switch tests, and a short walkthrough so the household can use the system the same day.

How we install

A repeatable process so the job stays tidy, documented, and supportable.

  • Plan

    Map rooms, circuits, and device roles. Agree HA vs app-first goals and flag any electrical work that needs a registered electrician.

  • Install

    Mount and wire hardware to spec. Keep cabling tidy and loads within device ratings — no rushed DIY shortcuts.

  • Integrate

    Connect devices to the network and ecosystem you actually want: Shelly/Sonoff local, Matter, Zigbee, or Home Assistant.

  • Prove

    Name everything, test switching and sensors, document what changed, and hand over so support has a clear baseline.

What we install

From single relays to denser multi-channel setups — focused on gear we stock and support.

Smart relays & switches

Behind switches and in DBs

Shelly 1 / 1 Mini / 1PM Gen4 and similar relays for lighting and general loads — installed for stable local control.

Book installation
Energy & power monitoring

See what draws power

PM-capable devices (1PM, Pro 2PM, and related) set up so consumption data is usable in HA or your monitoring stack.

Book installation
Sensors & safety devices

Inputs that drive automations

Door, motion, temp, and safety-related inputs installed and named so automations have clean triggers.

Book installation
Hub-friendly ecosystems

Shelly, Sonoff, Matter, Zigbee

We prioritise hardware that plays nicely with Home Assistant and multi-protocol homes — including Sonoff Mini Extreme Matter dimmers and Shelly Pro multi-channel gear.

Why Us

Why Untamed Tech for installation

We sell the hardware and install it for the same stack we support.

  • Other companies:

    • Generic electrician

      Great at wires — often leaves cloud apps and HA as your problem.

    • DIY YouTube

      Cheap until the first DB surprise or half-joined device.

    • Cloud-only installer

      Works until the vendor app changes — local control never arrives.

Installation FAQs

Straight answers before we book the visit.

Do I need a registered electrician?

For new circuits, DB modifications, or anything beyond swapping/fitting approved devices on existing safe circuits, yes — we flag that during planning and can coordinate. Simple device installs on suitable existing points often do not.

Can you install devices I already bought?

Yes. Bring your own Shelly, Sonoff, or compatible gear — we still prefer hardware we stock so support stays simple.

Is Home Assistant required?

No. We can leave devices in a solid local/app setup. If you want HA, we configure for that path from day one.

Do you cover Gauteng?

Yes — on-site installs across Gauteng (and we can discuss further SA travel for larger jobs).

How long does a visit take?

A single device is often under an hour once on site. Room packs and multi-room days scale with device count, access, and network readiness.

What should I prepare before you arrive?

Wi-Fi password, clear access to switches/DB if needed, a decision on HA vs app-first, and the devices (or an Untamed order) ready to unpack.

Devices bought. Still in the box?
