The world's first home automation trailer.

We took a race car trailer, framed it like a house and wired it with Control4. A working smart home on wheels. Today it comes with us to the events we host, support or take part in.

A smart home you could walk into.

Most people had never been inside a real smart home, only heard about one. So we built one on wheels.

It started life as a race car trailer. We framed real two by four walls inside, wired it exactly like a house, and ran everything on the same Control4 system we install in homes. Nothing is staged.

  • Built from a race car trailer
  • Framed and wired like a real house
  • At the events we host, support or take part in

Everything in a real home, on wheels.

Every part of it is live, and every part of it is what we put in homes.

One Control4 system

Every light, speaker, screen and camera runs on one system, from a touchscreen, a keypad or the app.

The theatre inside the trailer, a large screen between two speakers above a cushioned bench

A real home theatre

A big screen, hidden in-wall speakers and treated walls, all started with one press.

The trailer lounge wall lit in cool blue, a TV showing cherry blossoms between two speakers

Circadian lighting

Light that shifts through the day: cooler and brighter in the morning, warmer in the evening.

Lighting and shades
Lux by Control4 keypads and a touchscreen on a dark grey wall

Lux keypads

Metal faceplates, engraved buttons and a built in light sensor, so the lighting answers the room.

A ceiling camera above the trailer's control wall

Security, built in

Cameras with lights and a siren that warn people off, viewed and armed from the same system.

Audio inside and out

In-wall speakers inside, and rock speakers that disappear into a garden bed outside.

Whole home audio

Still on the road. Still our proudest first.

Today the trailer comes with us to the events we host, support or take part in. The same work lives in real homes, condos and cottages across Toronto, the GTA and cottage country.

Questions? Straight answers.

The short version of the trailer story.

Can I visit or book the trailer?

The trailer is not used for private client demos. It comes with us to events we host, support or take part in, so you may spot it there. To see what we can do in your own home, start with a private consult, and our project page shows real homes we have built.

Ask us: (416) 800-6714
What is inside the trailer?

A full smart home on one Control4 system: a home theatre with in-wall speakers, a control wall with a touchscreen and Lux keypads, circadian lighting, security cameras, and audio inside and out, including rock speakers in a garden bed. Everything is real and running, the same equipment we install in homes.

Ask us: (416) 800-6714
Why build a smart home on wheels?

Most people have never been inside a real smart home, only seen photos or heard about one. A trailer lets us bring a working one to events, so people can dim the lights, start the theatre and check the cameras themselves and feel the difference in person.

Ask us: (416) 800-6714
Can I get the same features in my home?

Yes. Everything in the trailer is standard Control4 equipment, the same lighting, theatre, audio and security we design and install in homes and cottages across Toronto, the GTA, Collingwood and Muskoka. A private consult is the place to start: we look at your home and plan what fits.
