How much does it cost to make your home smart?

An indicative cost for a complete wireless (Zigbee/WiFi) smart home in Riyadh — AC, curtains, security, and network — starts from around 9,000 SAR for apartments and from around 41,000 SAR for large villas, excluding VAT. You can start with lighting control alone from around 3,500 SAR and expand later. KNX, a wired system, needs its own electrical-drawings review and is priced accordingly.

What Determines Smart Home Pricing?

Wireless or KNX?

Wireless (Zigbee/WiFi) systems install without wall-opening and price directly. Wired KNX needs electrical planning from the design stage and is priced from drawings.

Building Stage

Finished, in finishing, or under construction — this affects installation approach and cable routing, especially for wired systems. Wireless installs at any stage.

Rooms & Floors

Each room needs its own control points, and each floor needs a separate control panel — cost scales with property size.

AC Control Type

Split, duct, FCU, or VRF — pricing differs significantly by installation complexity.

Add-on Systems

Electric curtains, CCTV, intercom, networking, or EV charging — each one raises the cost, calculated live in the calculator.

Frequently Asked Questions About Smart Home Pricing

How much does a smart home cost?

It's an indicative estimate that depends on property size and how many systems you want. A complete package (AC, curtains, security, network) starts from around 9,000 SAR for an apartment and from around 41,000 SAR for a large villa. You can start with lighting control alone from around 3,500 SAR and expand later — use the calculator above for an exact estimate.

Can I install a smart home without breaking walls?

Yes. Wireless (Zigbee/WiFi) systems are built exactly for this — they install in finished homes with no wall-opening or new wiring.

What's the price difference between KNX and Zigbee?

Zigbee/WiFi is cheaper and faster to install since it's fully wireless, and suits most projects. KNX is a professional wired system that needs planning from the construction stage and is priced from project drawings, not an instant calculator.

Do the prices include installation?

Yes — the calculator's estimate includes hardware, supply, installation, and programming. VAT (15%) is calculated separately and shown in the breakdown.

Can I add systems later, or do I have to decide everything upfront?

You can start with lighting only and expand later, especially with wireless systems. Planning ahead, even if you don't install everything immediately, avoids costlier changes down the line.

How long does installation take?

It depends on project size and the number of systems. Message us on WhatsApp after filling out the calculator and our team will give you a realistic timeline for your project.
