Installations At Home: professional networks, cabling and WiFi in south-east England

Installations At Home (I.A.H.) is a British company based in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, which has been providing home and business network installation, WiFi, Ubiquiti UniFi systems and data cabling services since 2009. Its activity is aimed at both homes and businesses, with main coverage in Hertfordshire, London, Middlesex and Essex, and extended service to neighbouring counties.

The company works with its own engineers and a network of selected professional partners who carry out projects while maintaining its standards. Each project begins with a free survey and consultation to assess the client's needs and design a solution tailored to the real use of the space.

Networks, structured cabling and fibre optics

The networks area covers the installation of structured cabling with CAT6/6A, CAT7 and CAT8 solutions, as well as OM1 to OM5 fibre optics. Work ranges from installing individual Ethernet outlets for computers, televisions, Sky Q boxes or garden offices to PoE-sensitive cabling for CCTV cameras and WiFi access points.

The engineers design and install structured cabling systems with Gigabit, Multi-Gigabit and 10-Gigabit switching, covering everything from home networks to larger multi-user environments. They also carry out fibre optic installations with splicing and testing, and deploy Starlink systems with associated network distribution.

WiFi, coverage and wireless standards

In the wireless field, the company installs WiFi solutions aimed at maximising speed, stability and seamless coverage throughout the property. Its installers specialise in network distribution, signal boosting and coverage expansion to eliminate weak spots.

The catalogue includes Ubiquiti UniFi systems and upgrades to WiFi 6 and WiFi 7 standards. They also extend WiFi, internet and media services to garden offices, outbuildings and other buildings within the same property, with the aim of maintaining uniform connectivity.

Ubiquiti UniFi, CCTV and access control

The firm installs, configures and deploys UniFi access points, AI CCTV cameras, access control, door and gate entry, and intercom systems. The company states it has more than ten years of hands-on experience in the design, installation and maintenance of these systems.

Each project is adapted to the characteristics of the property, with customised installations, network performance optimisation and bespoke security configurations, complemented by on-site and remote management services.

Automation, Sky Q and 4G/5G connectivity

Additional services include the installation of smart home and office automation systems, the connection and configuration of Sky Q boxes via data cable, and the installation of 4G/5G solutions.
