Kenya's Home Automation & Smart Security Specialists

Silver Oak Technologies is a Nairobi-based technology company specialising in the design, supply, installation, and after-sales support of smart home automation systems, integrated security solutions, gate automation, and energy management across Kenya.

Founded on the belief that intelligent, connected living should be accessible — not just for the wealthy few — we have helped hundreds of homeowners, property developers, hospitality businesses, and commercial estates transform how they experience and control their spaces. From a single smart light switch to a fully networked property management system, every project is approached with the same level of care, technical expertise, and long-term thinking.

We serve clients across Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, Nakuru, Eldoret, Thika, Kiambu, Machakos, and beyond — backed by a certified technical team that handles every stage from site assessment and system design to installation, commissioning, training, and ongoing support.

Our partnerships with globally recognised brands — including Tuya, Sonoff, Fibaro, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Hikvision, BFT, CAME, and NICE — ensure that every system we install is reliable, future-proof, and compatible with the world's leading smart home ecosystems.

Our Mission

To transform everyday living and working in Kenya through innovative, reliable, and affordable smart home automation and security systems — empowering homeowners, businesses, and property developers to enjoy greater comfort, energy efficiency, and peace of mind. We design every system with the Kenyan context in mind: our climate, power infrastructure, urban density, and evolving security landscape.

Our Vision

To become Kenya's most trusted and comprehensive provider of smart home, security, and gate automation solutions — leading the country's transition to intelligent, energy-efficient buildings that respond to how people actually live and work. We envision a Kenya where automated security, smart lighting, remote gate control, and connected energy management are the standard, not the exception.

Our Core Values

  • Reliability — Systems that work, every time, without compromise
  • Transparency — Honest quotes, clear timelines, no hidden costs
  • Innovation — Staying ahead of smart technology trends globally
  • Accessibility — Making automation affordable for more Kenyans
  • After-sales care — We remain your partner long after installation

Our Approach

We don't sell off-the-shelf packages. Every client engagement starts with a detailed consultation to understand your property layout, lifestyle, security priorities, and budget. We then design a tailored system, present a transparent quotation, and handle every stage of installation — leaving you with full training, documentation, and a direct support line. Your system grows with you.

Why Homeowners & Businesses Choose Us

We're not a generic electronics shop. We're a specialised integration firm that designs, installs, and supports systems built for the Kenyan environment and lifestyle.

From your first consultation to post-installation support, we handle everything in-house. No outsourcing, no handoffs to unknown contractors. Our certified technicians design your system, install it, commission it, train you to use it, and remain your dedicated support contact for the life of the system.
Kenya's power grid has unique characteristics — load shedding, voltage fluctuations, and high electricity costs. Every system we design includes appropriate surge protection, battery backup compatibility, and energy optimisation features. We don't install systems designed for the UK or US and hope they survive here.
We provide detailed, itemised quotations before any work begins. You'll know exactly what you're paying for — equipment, labour, cabling, commissioning, and training — with no hidden charges. If your requirements change mid-project, we discuss and agree before proceeding.
We are authorised resellers and installation partners for Tuya, Sonoff, Fibaro, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Hikvision, BFT, CAME, NICE, and other leading brands. This means genuine products, full manufacturer warranties, access to genuine firmware updates, and technical support from the manufacturer's side when needed.
You don't have to automate everything at once. We design systems with future expansion in mind — so whether you're starting with smart lights in the living room or a full-property security integration, your system can grow as your needs and budget evolve. No ripping out and replacing.
Smart systems need smart support. Many issues can be diagnosed and resolved remotely — a firmware update, a reconfiguration, or a settings change. Our support team is available via WhatsApp, phone, and remote-access tools, meaning faster resolution without waiting for a site visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before investing in a smart home, security, or gate automation system in Kenya.

Home automation costs in Kenya vary widely depending on scope. A basic smart lighting setup for one room can start from KSh 8,000, while a whole-home automation system integrating lighting, security, gate automation, and CCTV can range from KSh 150,000 to KSh 800,000+. We always provide a free, itemised quotation so you know exactly what you're investing in — with no hidden costs.
Yes — and we design every system with this in mind. We include surge protection, UPS backup for critical systems like security cameras and gate automation, and solar-compatible setups where needed. All our devices are rated for the voltage fluctuations common in Kenya's power grid. We do not sell or install systems that haven't been tested for local conditions.
Absolutely. Our gate automation systems support smartphone app control, meaning you can open or close your gate from anywhere in the world with an internet connection. You can also use RFID access cards, fingerprint biometrics, a PIN keypad, or the standard remote control. We integrate gate systems with video intercoms so you can see and speak with visitors before granting access.
Both. Many of our clients are retrofitting smart technology into existing homes — and modern wireless smart devices (Tuya, Sonoff, Fibaro) make this very achievable without major rewiring. New builds benefit from planning smart wiring from the start. We assess your property and recommend the most cost-effective approach for your specific situation.
A security alarm system detects intrusions using sensors (motion, door, window, glass-break) and triggers an audible alarm and notifications to your phone. A CCTV system records video footage and allows you to monitor your property live or review events. They complement each other — and we frequently integrate both with gate automation and access control into a unified security ecosystem.
Yes — and this is a core part of what makes Silver Oak Technologies different. We offer 24/7 technical support via WhatsApp and phone, remote diagnostics for most smart home issues, and scheduled maintenance visits for gate motors, CCTV cameras, and alarm systems. Many issues can be resolved remotely without needing a technician on site.
