3-essential-features-to-add-to-your-smart-security-camera-system

Modern Technologies for a Safer & Smarter Home

Homeowners choose to install security cameras for many reasons. Some are frequently away from home or own multiple properties. Some folks worry about their kids while they’re at work, while others have experienced a break-in in the past.

Whatever your reason may be, the only way to ensure peace of mind is to install a fully integrated system that covers your entire property.

Old security systems presented many weak points and blind spots, like the lack of motion alerts on traditional CCTV cameras. But, just as the rest of our technology has advanced, today’s home security is much safer and more effective with the latest devices.

As a home security installer based in the Murfreesboro, TN area, we recommend all of our clients incorporate the following three features in their smart security camera system. That way, you can sleep soundly at night, knowing your house is protected.

We Do More Than Just Smart Home Services and Security

Though many of our discussions on our blog revolve around services such as security and surveillance, smart home automation and home audio video, did you know that Symspire also takes care of day-to-day residential electric services to enhance your Tennessee home?

Electricians recognize the parts of your home that most people will never see and understand its inner workings. Our electricians have been trained to notice potential problems before they begin to protect you and your family. We’re famous for our attention to home security, and we bring that passion to every project, including electrical services.

The Beginner’s Guide to Alarm Monitoring Services

the-beginners-guide-to-alarm-monitoring-Services

Is Professional Alarm Monitoring Right for Your Home? 

When mobile alerts were first introduced to security technology, it was a complete game-changer. Surveillance footage was no longer used only as evidence to provide to the authorities or insurance claims. Now, incidents could be caught in real-time, preventing theft, damage, and loss.

With smart notifications, if unusual activity is detected on your property—like a stranger lingering in the driveway after dark or a leak in the basement—your phone will be instantly notified with a message. From there, you can open your security app and view a live video feed, then assess the situation. 

But what if you miss the notification? The incident will go unnoticed, and by the time you see the alert, it’s too late to prevent any damage. And what if you need to focus on work at the office, and can’t be checking your phone every time it vibrates? 

That’s where alarm monitoring services come in. Professional services handle the monitoring for you, so whether you’re away on vacation or at work, you can focus on your day without worrying about what’s going on at home.

We frequently cover tips and advice on alarm monitoring services in our home security blog. To learn more about security monitoring for your Murfreesboro, TN home, read our handy guide and expand on each topic below!
