Smart home? How about a smart garage?

by Abby Mwesigwa on November 19, 2018

The smart home of the future is actually happening now. With technology getting more advanced every day, adapting your home to be smart is easy and fun. But how about your VersaTube garage or carport?  Don’t forget to let it in on some of the action!

Anything your home can do, your VersaTube garage or carport can do, too ...

Depending on how you are using your VersaTube building, you may want to carry some of the smart features you’re using inside your home into your garage or carport. From Wifi-controlled outlets and Wifi-extenders to a roll-up garage door that works via Bluetooth, there are so many ways to carry your smart home features through into your garage or carport. Locator stickers for your tools, laser parking devices so you never bump into your work table, and lights on a sensor—the possibilities are many.

… And some things it can do better

You might find it surprising, but there are a few smart “home” features that actually work best with a garage or carport structure. When it comes to charging your electric or hybrid car, there’s no better place to install your charging equipment. The roof of your garage is most likely going to be one of the best places for solar panels, and technology companies are starting to make more and more options for collecting and storing energy for use in your home, via roof tiles and battery stations that would store perfectly in a garage.


Whatever type of VersaTube garage or carport you have - or are planning to purchase - you undoubtedly want it to be part of your smart home! And your VersaTube building  is versatile enough to be used in anyway that fits your needs. Many smart home features can work with any garage or carport design, but should the idea you want to incorporate into your smart garage require modifying the structure, we almost certainly have a design to help you do it, or suggestions on how you can make it work. Contact us! We love to make your design ideas happen.
