What is Remote Access Control? How Does it Enhance Home Security?
Many homeowners have taken a big step toward home security and protecting their families by installing security cameras and alarm systems in their homes. These are great first steps – but what if you could take it one step further? With remote system access you can have complete control of your home’s security at all times, even from miles and miles away. All you need is your smartphone, tablet, or laptop to keep a watchful eye on your home.
Access
With a remote system, you an access your home system from anywhere you have an Internet connection. You can view your camera feed anytime, play back recorded files, and in some systems even control the systems within your home – without being anywhere near the home. If you are on vacation and don’t have anyone to check on your home, you can simply do it yourself!
Control
With a remote system you will have the full ability to turn the alarm off or on at your desire. This can be especially helpful if you suddenly realize you forgot to set it during the day. With remote access you can change the temperature of the home, set the lights how you would like them, check on your pets and more!
Notifications
In case of fire, intrusion, or another large event that may happen in your home – the remote system can let you know immediately. In a traditional home alarm system, the alarm would notify a dispatcher who would then call to get into contact with you. With a remote system – knowing exactly what is happening in your home at all times is right at your fingertips.
With remote access capabilities in your home, the possibilities are endless. For safety and security, you will always know exactly what is happening in your home. Additionally, for convenience and comfort, you can control temperatures, lights, and give yourself some peace of mind that your home, pets, and belongings are safe and sound in your absence.
