Your System Brings Ultimate Control

When you’re gone for a while, the worst part is feeling that your empty home is vulnerable and out of reach.  Installing a smart security system changes all that!

Your system makes it easy for you to check in and secure every inch of your home.  Manage everything simply by using your smartphone, tablet, or another smart device.  Adjust surveillance camera angles, lock smart doors, or turn on your alarms – all with one push of a button.

As you’re setting up your new home, get your entire system connected, with every component tying back to one centralized source.  Pair your automated shades with your lighting control, and utilize both for your security.

Set your system to “away” mode, and have your lights and shades turn on and off sporadically throughout the day – mimicking your daily routines and tasks.  This will be sure to scare away any unwanted guests or intruders who would initially think your house was empty!

Receive Instant Notifications

When you’re gone from your property, you’re probably preoccupied with what is actually going down while you’re away.  Now you can find out the second something occurs or happens, with an instant notification on your phone.

Whether there’s a fire or burglary, or even if someone just tries to open your front door, your system will send an instant alert to your phone to let you know.  You can also set it to alert not just you, but the appropriate authorities as well.

You can stay well informed about any occurrence at or around your home, and you can decide right away if it’s an issue or not.

Watch Real-Time Video

Surveillance cameras don’t just show you videos after something bad has happened – you can now watch real-time footage of your home right on your smartphone, tablet, or laptop.

You can check the video feed at any time, or get a notification on your smart device that shows if movement has been detected or if something suspicious appears on camera. 

Set up your surveillance cameras all over your property, at set locations so you can see every needed angle and area of your home.  You can look at one camera’s view at a time, see all at once, or save the videos to look at later on your device.

If you’re just getting started with your new smart home, then it’s the best time to invest in a smart home security system.  Don’t leave your living space vulnerable whether you’re near or away.
