Security is a vital consideration when building or renovating a home. We can collaborate with your existing intruder alarm company or recommend our own trusted partners to ensure seamless integration within your smart home system.
We also design and install CCTV systems, integrating them seamlessly with our in-wall touch panels and IP-distributed control systems.
The cost and convenience of these systems have significantly decreased in recent years. A wide selection of cameras and lens options is available. As standard, we use high-resolution units with integrated zoom lenses for flexible setup, along with powerful LED infrared lighting for effective operation in complete darkness. In this mode, the cameras automatically switch to black and white.
Network video recorder – NVR
Installing a Network Video Recorder (NVR) allows you to record footage from all cameras over an extended period. Typically set to record continuously, these systems can store weeks of footage (depending on the number of cameras, recording resolution, and hard drive capacity). The NVRs we use also provide quick and easy viewing on your iPad, iPhone, PC, or Android devices. You can easily monitor the cameras on a PC, either locally or remotely via the internet. All cameras can also be viewed on our in-wall touch panels.
Security alarms.
Integration with the intruder alarm system can provide powerful deterrents and added peace of mind when linked to our lighting control systems. For example, if the alarm is set and you're away, and an intruder is detected on the garden terrace, we can trigger a lighting sequence to make it appear as though someone is home. This might involve turning on a light in an upstairs bedroom, pausing briefly, and then activating a light on the first-floor landing. This can deter a potential intruder, who, believing the house is occupied, may choose to target another property.
Integration with smoke and fire alarms also allows us to automatically turn on lights, helping to wake you in the event of an alarm activation.
Door Entry & Phone Systems.
Our door entry solutions are all IP-based, allowing you to see and speak to visitors via in-wall or wireless touch panels, and even on your mobile phone, whether you're at home or anywhere in the world.
These systems can integrate with our CCTV systems, enabling camera recording alongside other security cameras in your home.
We offer a range of solutions, including keypad access for keyless gate or door entry, proximity detectors, and some versions now with Bluetooth connectivity.
In summary, I cannot praise your company highly enough.
