Smart Integration with Control4 and Alarm.com
New construction presents the perfect opportunity to implement a fully integrated security system. Our Control4 and Alarm.com solutions allow builders to seamlessly incorporate security features into the home's infrastructure during the building process. Homeowners can control all security functions through a single, user-friendly interface on their smartphone or touchpad, creating a cohesive system that's both powerful and easy to use. This integration extends beyond basic security, connecting with other home systems to create a comprehensive protection network that's tailored to each homeowner's specific needs and preferences.
Remote Monitoring Capabilities
Today's homeowners need the ability to monitor their property from anywhere. Every security system we install in new Philadelphia homes includes robust remote monitoring capabilities. You'll receive real-time smartphone notifications when doors open or alarms trigger, giving you immediate awareness of potential security issues. Live video feeds are accessible from anywhere in the world, allowing you to check on your property whether you're at work or on vacation. Our systems also include custom alert settings for various security events, ensuring you're only notified about the activities that matter most to you, reducing false alarms and unnecessary distractions.
Advanced Surveillance Systems
High-definition surveillance cameras provide critical visual security for new homeowners. When installed during construction, we can conceal wiring within walls for a cleaner aesthetic and position cameras for optimal coverage of entry points and vulnerable areas. Our surveillance systems offer exceptional resolution and sophisticated video analytics, allowing homeowners to easily find and share footage when needed. The strategic placement of cameras during the building process ensures complete coverage without compromising your home's architectural integrity or interior design.
Automated Door Locks and Access Control
Smart locks represent a significant upgrade from traditional key systems in new construction. Homeowners can replace physical keys with secure digital access codes, eliminating concerns about lost or copied keys. You can manage access for property managers and service providers by creating temporary codes that work only during specified times. The system creates a detailed log of entries for complete accountability, so you'll always know who entered your home and when. These sophisticated locks integrate seamlessly with your overall security system, automatically engaging when you arm the alarm or according to your customized schedule.
Environmental Protection Systems
Complete home security includes safeguarding against environmental threats. For new construction homes, we install advanced smoke and carbon monoxide detection systems that alert you immediately to potential dangers. Water sensors placed in high-risk areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms can detect leaks before they cause significant damage. Automated water shut-off systems provide an additional layer of protection by stopping water flow at the first sign of a problem, preventing catastrophic damage to your new home. These environmental protections work in concert with intrusion detection to provide comprehensive security against all threats.
