How Home Automation Can Improve Your Home Security

A connected home is a safe home, with both being a top priority for homeowners in Auckland. People want to enjoy a smart home whilst ensuring the safety of their loved ones and valuable possessions. With advancements in technology, EAV’s home automation has emerged as a game-changer in enhancing home security. By integrating smart devices and systems, homeowners can now have greater control and monitoring capabilities, significantly improving their home security. Let's explore how home automation can make a difference in safeguarding your home. 

Remote Monitoring

One of the significant advantages of home automation is the ability to monitor your home remotely. With smart security cameras installed you can access live video feeds and receive real-time notifications on your smartphone or computer. Whether you're at work, on vacation, or simply away from home, you can keep an eye on your property, ensuring that everything is secure. 

Smart Locks

Traditional locks can be easily compromised, but smart locks offer enhanced security. With home automation, you can control and monitor your door locks remotely. You can grant access to visitors or service providers through temporary access codes, eliminating the need for physical keys. Additionally, smart locks can send notifications when someone enters or leaves your home, allowing you to track activity and identify any suspicious behaviour.

Residential Alarms

Home automation systems can be integrated with residential alarms, giving you 24/7 access and round-the-clock security. These can detect any unauthorised movement and trigger alarms or send alerts to your mobile device. This feature acts as a deterrent, discouraging potential intruders and alerting you in case of a break-in. 

Lighting Control

Adequate lighting is crucial for home security, as it can deter burglars and improve surveillance. EAV’s home automation allows you to control your lights remotely or schedule them to turn on and off automatically. This gives the impression that someone is home, even when you're away, reducing the risk of burglary. Additionally, you can integrate motion sensors with your lighting system, so the lights turn on automatically when motion is detected, illuminating the surroundings and discouraging intruders.

Home automation has revolutionised the way we approach home security. By leveraging smart devices, remote monitoring capabilities and seamless integration, homeowners can significantly improve the safety of their homes. Contact EAV today to find out more about our residential security solutions.
