Have you ever considered expanding your services to include smart home installations but felt hesitant due to the technical complexities? We have exciting news! With the launch of 1Home MatterPro, you can now offer professional home automation services with zero prior training in smart home technology.
What is Matter and Why Does It Matter?
Matter is a revolutionary wireless smart home standard that ensures devices from different brands work together seamlessly. Supported by major players like Apple, Google, and Amazon, Matter is designed to create a unified, reliable, and secure smart home experience.
Here’s why Matter is a game-changer for you:
Wireless and Local-First: Matter operates wirelessly, eliminating the need for complex wiring. It prioritizes local communication, meaning devices talk directly to each other within the home. This local-first approach ensures faster and more reliable operation, even if the internet goes down, making the system more robust and reducing potential support issues.
Thread: A Self-Healing Mesh Network: Thread is the networking protocol that underpins Matter devices, creating a resilient and efficient mesh network. Each device in a Thread network acts as a node, relaying data to other devices. This means if one device or a border router (which connects your Thread network to other networks like Wi-Fi) becomes unavailable, the network automatically re-routes communication through other devices. This self-healing capability ensures that the smart home system remains stable and operational, minimizing downtime and customer complaints.
Installing Matter Smart Homes as a Service with MatterPRO
Building a Reliable Smart Home Network: With MatterPro, you’ll be installing a smart home network that’s both robust and versatile. One of the key advantages is the ability to integrate Eltako devices for lighting and shading. These devices are installed behind push buttons, ensuring that even if the network goes down, your customers can still control their lights and shades manually. This reliable fallback reduces the number of support tickets you might receive and gives your customers peace of mind. Moreover, the majority of trusted consumer brands already support Matter, offering a wide range of options to your clients. For example, you can install tado° thermostats for efficient climate control, Elko push buttons for stylish and functional interfaces, and Nuki smart locks for secure and convenient access—all of which enhance the functionality and appeal of the smart home system.

Pre-Configuration in the Office: With MatterPro, you can pre-configure all Matter-compatible devices in your office before heading to the client’s site. When you arrive, all you need to do is connect the 1Home MatterPro to the network—no need to configure each device individually on-site. This streamlines the installation process, allowing you to focus on what you do best.
Hassle-Free Handover: Once everything is set up, the customer can simply log in to their preferred smart home app (Apple Home, Google Home, SmartThings) and add the MatterPro device. The system configures itself automatically, so you don’t need to touch the customer’s phone or worry about privacy concerns. The customer can immediately start controlling their home with mobile apps, voice commands, and automations.
Remote Diagnostics: With MatterPro, you can diagnose and fix issues remotely, reducing the need for site visits. This feature allows you to offer after-sales support efficiently, saving time and increasing your profitability.
