South Shore smart homes

Smart homes on the South Shore of Massachusetts

Boston Automations designs and installs smart home systems, home theaters, Wi-Fi, cameras, lighting control and motorized shades on the South Shore, from Quincy and Braintree to Hingham, Cohasset, Scituate, Norwell and Hanover. Our office is in Norwood, about 20 to 40 minutes from most South Shore towns.

South Shore houses

South Shore homes range from restored older houses to new builds near the water. In an older house, wireless Lutron dimmers and battery-powered shades let us add control without opening walls. In a new build or a big renovation, we run the wiring during framing, so speakers, TVs, shades and Wi-Fi access points go exactly where they belong.

Near the water, outdoor speakers, cameras and lights have to stand up to salt air, so we plan for that from the start.

What we install on the South Shore

This is the work we do most often in South Shore homes.

Wi-Fi and networks with access points wired back to one rack, so every room, the deck and the yard get a strong signal.

Lighting control with Lutron keypads and dimmers in place of rows of switches.

Motorized shades that open and close on a schedule or with one button.

Speakers inside and out, playing music from one app.

Home theaters and media rooms from a dedicated cinema in the basement to a family room with a big screen and hidden speakers.

Cameras around the house that you can check from your phone.

Systems we install

We're an authorized dealer for Lutron, Savant, Control4 and Crestron, so one company designs the system, installs it and supports it. Read more about Control4 in Greater Boston and the South Shore and Lutron lighting and shades.

Our work has won a 2024 Lutron Excellence Award and Gold and Bronze in CE Pro's 2026 Home of the Year Awards.

Our office

Our office is at 83 Morse St in Norwood, about 20 to 40 minutes from most South Shore towns. That makes it easy to meet at the house, check on a builder's schedule or come back for a service visit.

Tours are by appointment at the Strateres Design Studio in Norwood.

How a project runs

We start with a visit to walk the house and hear how you live in it. Then we send a design with the equipment, where everything goes, and the price.

For new construction or a renovation, we work with your builder and run the wiring before the walls close. After the install we show you how everything works, and our service plans cover support after that. For the bigger picture, see home automation across Greater Boston.

Do you install Control4 and Lutron on the South Shore?

Yes. We're an authorized Control4 and Lutron dealer and install both across the South Shore, from Lutron lighting and shades to a Control4 system that runs lighting, music, TVs, climate and cameras from one app.

We're building a new house near the water. When should we call you?

Before the framing is done, if you can. Running wiring for speakers, TVs, shades, cameras and Wi-Fi before the walls close costs less and gives you more choices. We work with your builder on the schedule.

Can you add smart home features to an older house without opening walls?

In most cases, yes. Wireless Lutron dimmers, battery-powered shades and cable runs through the basement and attic let us add a lot without a renovation.
