Every Property & Homeowner is Different

With smart home technology comes connectivity and the ability to integrate all your systems and products. You might already know that this entails connecting lights, music, climate control, shading and more. But did you know that your security system can also be integrated with your home automation system and customized exactly to your preferences and needs?

While home security systems generally all have the same goal of keeping your family and house safe, the details might vary. You might be different from your neighbor in how you monitor and control your system, what exact security features and products are being used, and maybe even what it looks like aesthetically.

This variation of priorities and concerns makes customizable features all the more important.

How Can Security Be Customized?

When your security system is connected to your automation system and other technology, it is all easy to adjust. Connect it with your lighting system so that when activity or motion is detected, the lights turn on or flash, and get an alert on your phone if you’re not home. With surveillance cameras, you can view the footage in real-time or replay it later to review.

Smart video doorbells connect to your home’s wi-fi to send you alerts and video of the area when someone is at your door. You can adjust what triggers these alerts (motion or simply when someone rings the doorbell.

Your routine is unique, so you can schedule certain functions for designated times. For example, activate the system when you leave the house and disarm it straight from your phone’s app when you’re arriving home.

One of our brand partners, Alarm.com, offers not only customization, but clear and accessible communication. Their app allows you to update any account information, emergency contacts and settings, and be notified of any unexpected activity and view real-time footage remotely.
