Smart Home Features to Ask For in a New Apartment in 2026

Smart features are now a standard question on site visits. This post covers the smart home features in new apartments worth asking about, and what is confirmed so far at Codename Club Class.

What Counts as a Smart Home

A smart home uses connected devices to control lighting, climate, security and appliances, often from a phone or voice assistant. Some features are built into the home at construction; others can be added later. The ones worth asking about before you buy are those that need wiring or planning during construction.

Features Worth Asking About

• Video door phones: see and speak to visitors before opening the door.

• Access control: app or card-based entry to the building and amenities.

• Smart lighting: dimmable, scheduled or app-controlled lights.

• Climate control: provision for air-conditioning in each room.

• Home automation systems: a central controller for lighting, curtains and appliances.

• Power backup: so smart devices keep working during outages.

Video Door Phone Apartments

Video door phone apartments are now common in premium projects, and they matter most in high-rises, where you cannot see your front door from the street. At Club Class, video door phones are part of the indicated security features, alongside 24/7 gated entry and CCTV in common areas.

Home Automation in Luxury Flats Bangalore

Home automation in luxury flats Bangalore buyers ask about ranges from smart switches to full-home systems. At Club Class, AC provisioning and home automation are among the details to be confirmed in the official specification sheet at launch. Ask before booking whether conduits and wiring will be ready for the system you want, since adding wiring later is harder in concrete-wall construction.

What Is Confirmed at Club Class

• Electrical: concealed copper wiring with modular switches

• Power backup: for lifts, common areas and essential points in each home

• Security: 24/7 gated entry, CCTV in common areas and video door phones

• Structure: RCC frame with aluminium formwork, so wiring routes are fixed before casting

Planning for Smart Features

Because Club Class uses aluminium formwork, electrical routes are set before the concrete is poured. If you want smart switches, extra data points or home automation, raise it with our team early so you know what can be accommodated and what is better added at fit-out.

Questions to Ask Before Booking

• Which smart features will be built in, and which are optional?

• Will the electrical layout include spare conduits or data points?

• Is there provision for air-conditioning in every room?

• Which features will power backup support?
