REMOTE ACTIVATION
The first line of defense in home security is your alarm system. However, your alarm won’t do you much good if you forget to turn the system on.
All is not lost if you get to work and realize you forgot to activate your system. With smart security from Symspire, you can use your phone to turn on your system remotely to give you the peace of mind you’re looking for.
PUSH NOTIFICATIONS
We all forget to lock every door or close every window on occasion, but doing so doesn’t have to be a major security threat. Your home security system can automatically let you know if there are any security gaps you need to be aware of. All you have to do is tell your system to send a notification to your phone or email whenever it detects an open window or door, whenever an alarm is triggered or when a sensor detects anything unusual. Then you can take the necessary precautions to keep your home safe.
CAMERA POSITIONING
A camera pointed in the wrong direction or wrong angle will give you very little in the way of useful information. Fortunately, if your camera has pan, tilt or zoom capabilities, you can adjust where the camera is pointed or what it’s focused on remotely using your phone. That way, you can ensure your cameras have the best angle possible to keep an eye on your property.
MONITORING SYSTEMS
As helpful as your home security system can be, there’s no way for you to watch over your home every moment while you’re away; you have other things you need to do, and constantly fretting over what’s happening in your home isn’t going to do much to alleviate your anxiety.
Luckily, you don’t have to stay glued to your phone to know your home is secure. You can check in periodically using video monitoring technology, or better yet, let us monitor your system for you to take the stress out of your hands.
These are just a handful of ways you can take full advantage of your home security system to give you greater peace of mind.
