The Home Depot’s exclusive smart home platform, Hubspace, is bringing true whole-home connectivity to homeowners. What started as a collection of simple, standalone smart products has grown into a comprehensive ecosystem that eliminates the need for complex hubs or professional installation. With a smart solution for every point of light—from the front curb to the backyard—Hubspace offers a seamless, interconnected experience for every corner of the property, inside and out.
Hubspace 2.0: Smart lighting without the rewire
The launch of Hubspace 2.0 further simplifies the smart home experience with the introduction of Hubspace Connect technology. It now enables Hubspace switches and dimmers to communicate directly with Hubspace-enabled lights—even those on different circuits—significantly reducing the need for complex or expensive rewiring. Powered by Afero’s enterprise-grade IoT platform and security, this innovation eliminates the hassle of juggling multiple apps and accounts, delivering a seamless experience tailored for both everyday customers and Pros alike.
This technology also solves a common frustration in smart lighting: lights going offline when the wall switch is turned off. Normally, turning off a manual switch cuts the power to the bulb, making app or voice control impossible. Hubspace Connect fixes this by sending digital commands directly to the lights instead of cutting the circuit. This ensures the system remains responsive and ready for voice or app control—even if someone physically flips the switch to "off."
Other Features
- Vacation Mode: Enhances home security by cycling lights and smart plugs at random intervals. The daily-changing patterns create a realistic "lived-in" appearance, providing peace of mind while you're away.
- Circadian Lighting: Supports your body’s natural rhythm by automatically shifting color temperatures throughout the day—from energizing cool tones in the afternoon to relaxing warm hues in the evening.
- Warm Dimming: Replicates the cozy, familiar glow of classic incandescent bulbs by automatically warming the color temperature as the light level is lowered.
- Logarithmic Brightness Control: Provides a more natural dimming experience that mirrors how the human eye perceives changes in light, ensuring smooth transitions without sudden jumps in brightness.
Expanding Partnerships
At CES 2026, Hubspace is proud to announce a new collaboration with Kwikset, a trusted leader in residential security. Launching in 2026, the new Kwikset smart lock, powered by Hubspace, will deliver premium security at an unmatched value. Hubspace is also deepening its commitment to American-engineered reliability through a partnership with Texas Instruments, integrating its chips into next-generation products across the entire portfolio to provide a U.S.-sourced supply chain. “We are incredibly excited to expand the Hubspace portfolio through strategic partnerships with national leaders like Kwikset and Texas Instruments. By combining Home Depot's product authority and Afero's seamless platform with world-class hardware, we are making a truly simple, secure, and affordable smart home accessible to every Home Depot customer,” said Nick Millette, product development merchant for smart home at The Home Depot. |
Why Hubspace Stands Out
- Ease of Use: Setup is designed for everyone—simply download the app and scan a QR code to get connected in 60 seconds or less.
- Unbeatable Value: Hubspace provides affordable, high-quality, feature-rich smart products, making home automation attainable for every budget.
- One App, Complete Control: Consolidate your home management into a single, intuitive platform. With a suite of more than 200 products, users can control their entire environment from one place.
Imagine locking your doors, dimming your landscape lighting, and turning off every light in the house—all with a single tap. Hubspace makes this level of convenience a reality without the complexity.
Hubspace-enabled products are available exclusively at The Home Depot in-store and online.
