Challenge:
A dental office was dealing with Wi-Fi dropouts, security gaps, and constant calls to outside IT help.

HiveLink Solution:
We can install a managed network with secure VLANs, remote health monitoring, and proactive alerts when bandwidth dropped.

Result:
Fewer disruptions, stronger security, and no more scrambling for tech help mid-day.

Challenge:
A family wants a way to simplify their daily routines and save on energy without juggling multiple apps or remotes.

HiveLink Solution:
We can install a centralized Home Assistant dashboard that controls lighting, locks, HVAC, and ambient audio. Custom automations turn off unused lights, trigger bedtime scenes, and notify parents when doors are unlocked.

Result:
The family can run their home from a single screen—and save on monthly energy costs.

Challenge:
A local daycare needs to limit who can enter the building, reduce distractions during nap time, and automate end-of-day lighting routines.

HiveLink Solution:
We can install smart locks with PIN entry, programmed white noise machines and soft dimming lights for nap time, and created daily shut-down automations that turn off everything after the last child leaves.

Result:
Parents feel more secure, staff are less stressed, and children sleep soundly.

Challenge:
A mid-sized retirement community wants to improve resident safety during overnight hours while reducing the burden on nighttime staff. Residents frequently leave lights on, have difficulty locating switches in the dark, and staff are manually adjusting HVAC and lighting in common areas every evening.

HiveLink Solution:
We can design and install a smart system using motion-activated lighting in resident hallways and bathrooms, voice-controlled thermostats in private rooms, and nighttime automations that dimmed lights and adjusted temperatures after 9PM.

A central Home Assistant dashboard gives staff visibility over the entire system—from light status to environmental controls—without entering individual rooms.

Services include:

• Automated lighting scenes for early morning and late evening transitions

• Door sensors to alert staff of unauthorized access to restricted areas

• A “Quiet Hours” mode to minimize disruption during sleep cycles

Result:
There should be fewer reported night time falls, greater ease moving through the facility, and improved comfort. Staff were able to focus more on care instead of repetitive tasks. The community should see a 12% reduction in energy usage during nighttime hours.

Challenge:
An Airbnb host can manage multiple properties and juggle guest check-ins, climate control, and post-stay resets manually. Lost keys, forgotten lights, and high energy bills cost time and money — not to mention lowering guest reviews.

HiveLink Solution:
We can install a smart access control system using keypad locks with auto-expiring guest codes, paired with a presence-aware system that automatically adjusted lighting and climate when guests arrived or left. Additionally, we can add motion sensors in key areas and an automation that shuts down lights and locks doors after checkout.

Key Features Delivered:

• Guest-specific access codes that expire automatically

• Smart thermostat automation to save energy between stays

• Lighting presets triggered by motion and time of day

• Dashboard for the host to monitor and control everything remotely

• Security camera integration for exterior doors and driveways (guest privacy respected)

Result:
The host reduces their average monthly utility costs by 18% and saves over 4 hours per week in manual coordination. The system paid for itself in under three months.
