Lockdown Adjustments Made Easier with Smart Automation

COVID-19 has caused waves across the globe, and it seems that the effects are continuing to force changes to be made and mindsets to shift. Although this pandemic has created multiple challenges, humans are adaptable and will find ways to get around setbacks, and somehow emerge stronger – we always do. The important thing is to stick together (even while we’re apart) and find ways to stay focused, functioning and, most of all, moving forward.
One such challenge has been that businesses are taking a knock due to inactivity. This doesn’t necessarily need to be the case for all businesses, and it doesn’t mean that production need come to a stand-still. Many businesses have developed successful work-from-home strategies in order to stay connected to employees, clients and suppliers. All of this has been made possible with the use of smart technology.
In addition to this, now that the lockdown restrictions are slowly abating, home and commercial automation solutions are stepping into the spotlight more prominently. As the future of living and working, moving forward with these solutions is the way to go. Automation experts from Simplimation have adapted to the current challenges, and are taking the necessary precautions to ensure the utmost safety for all, while kitting up homes and businesses with the unmatched quality equipment.

Smart Technology Products for Safer Work

Staying safe while staying connected is key right now, and with the right tools and the internet, this is very attainable. People all over have been and will continue to be using the internet and smart technology; whether it’s for remote work, or simply to keep themselves occupied and entertained. With the return of many workforces to their offices, rigid safety protocols need be adhered to, along with employers ensuring the utmost safety of their workers. Not only can these employers purchase regulated safety equipment, but they can go a few steps further.

  • Automated lighting: Automated lighting doesn’t just save on electricity, it also saves the need for touching light switches that have been in contact with germy hands. Automated commercial lighting has a host of benefits.
  • Smart boardrooms: For all those remote meeting both nationally and internationally, a smart boardroom makes sense economically, environmentally and hygienically. Instead of touching multiple different remotes, a click of a button on a single remote can activate the screen, switch on the aircon, close the shades and dim the lights simultaneously. This ensures that there is less need for contact on different items, and only one remote requiring sanitisation after use.
  • Enterprise-grade network equipment: A stable and secure network connection in your home or business is imperative for security and productivity.

Smart Home Systems for Remote Work

During lockdown, the need for home upgrades became more apparent with people spending more time in their homes than they have ever before. The most important part of remote work is having a stable and steady internet connection to hold up productivity and limit interruptions.

Smart home systems:
  • Increase the value of your home
  • Help it stay secure
  • Provide unmatched convenience
  • Give access to new levels of entertainment


These innovations will make the lockdown experience more enjoyable, and allow for access to the outside world remotely without risking the safety of your family and others.
