Learn About the Combined Power of Home Security Systems and Home Automation

Unfortunately, burglaries and home invasions in Las Vegas, NV, continue to increase. In 2021, burglaries are up 9.4 percent. Downtown, that number has increased by almost 28%. Of course, some of this increase can be attributed to last year, when many residents worked from home, leaving fewer unoccupied homes for burglars to earmark.

Burglaries are often crimes of opportunity. The garage door or a side gate are left open, or maybe a window is left ajar. Any easy entry points make for prime targets. They also tend to target homes that do not have a home security installation and security cameras keeping watch.

At Fuzion3, we partner with industry-leading brands in home security and automation. When combined, they can create a secure home that can deter any unlawful activity and lead to a quick response should the unthinkable occur. Two of these brands are Alarm.com and Savant.

Smart Cameras

Video surveillance cameras have dramatically changed from the one-time grainy pictures that took a magnifying glass to see. Instead, today’s high-resolution cameras offer crystal clear images and two-way communication.

You receive a notification of activity at the front door and check your live video surveillance feed. Someone with possible ill-intent seems to be peering through your front windows. You shout at them through the speaker system and ask them what they think they're doing. After they fall backwards into your begonias, they’ll most likely leave the premises.

You can also customize your alerts so that you receive the information that's most important to you. For example, when your kids arrive home from school, you can receive a notification and have a quick video chat through the camera. When someone comes to the door, you can choose to let them in remotely, ask them to leave their delivery, or even open the garage door so that they can leave it in a secure location until you arrive back home.  

More Than Theft Deterrents

Home security systems offer more than deterrents for thieves, vandals, and trespassers. They can also alert you to unusual activities occurring in the home. They do this through AI intelligence, learning what constitutes everyday activities, and recognizing when an action is unusual.

Did your kids get bored and decide to use the stairs as a toboggan run? Alarm.com will send you an unexpected activity notification. Is it unusual for your front door to open at 6 am on Saturday? You'll receive an alert and can check the live feed from the security cameras on your tablet or smartphone.

Maybe it's just your teenager deciding to go out for an early morning jog, or perhaps it's your five-year-old thinking it's a good time to explore the world. Either way, you'll know and can take the appropriate action.

Combined With Smart Home Automation

When you combine your security system and home automation, you can control everything from one easy user interface and from anywhere in the world. Security, lighting, temperature, audio-video, and more are all at your disposal, controlled with one or two taps on your tablet, smartphone, or touchscreen.

Savant, the premier smart home system, recently launched Savant Security. This service offers advanced monitoring and notifications that work with your security system. For example, the same user-friendly display lets you view camera feeds, unlock the front door, and turn on the porch lights.

Savant's security system also includes wide-angle HD cameras and two-way intercoms. The system also integrates with Ring, the well-known video doorbell, as well as spot and floodlights that come on when unexpected activity occurs.
