Live Update!

Gate and door being installed

There was a problem with the installation....you know how resale flats have their gate and door near to each other? They forgot to account for this so both bang into each other when they are closed. So now have to wait for them to rectify...

the DB box and SMARTBOX thingies for the smart home system

can control the lights in the house from the app. pretty cool...esp when you have too many lights! eventually the AC and ceiling fans will be wired up as well. 

it's been exactly a week since we moved it and the house is still not very settled...hurrhurr *cries*

The smartbox thing looks so cool!!!

fun to play with. and also very convenient. the set up includes a master switch in our bedroom as well as next to the main door. we can set up the different scenes on the app to choose which combo of lightings we want to use.

haha! ok we only got it because our ID was aggressively looking for new clients and we got a pretty nice discount. great for lights, definitely.

so my gate and digital locks have been installed. they sent a total of 6 different people over 2 days to complete the installation.

love the gate, we actually chose it because we wanted a cat friendly design and also did not want to kill the air flow through the unit. so something hole-y but not very hole-y. colour combo inspired by my ex neighbour who has a black gate-light brown door combo as well.

but the gate wasn't measured right, and so I ended up with two deep gashes (all the way to the metal), where it banged against my main door handle.

and the gate people came to adjust the gate, and touch up like this

weeeiiii...this is a brand new and pricey gate leh. plus the damage was caused by their installation. I informed MDL and they said they would get back to me. also i am owed a door viewer? i think..

Love your gate! Holey but not too holey! Means people have to actually peer inside your house to see it, instead of a glance. But that touch up is nasty. I hope you heckle them good!
