Secure Your Home and Loved Ones with a Smart Home Security System

The Latest Technology Creates Greater Safety and Security

We’re fortunate to live in a beautiful city with a relatively low crime rate and a friendly community. Unfortunately, several recent events have left people wondering what they can do to keep their homes and businesses safe. 

For instance, in August 2022, four men were arrested in connection with a home invasion in McLean, VA. Another neighborhood in the area experienced five burglaries in 2019, one in 2021, and stolen property from a vehicle. As a result, about 12 homes decided to take matters into their own hands, installing cameras that scan the license plate of cars entering their neighborhood. According to the community, it's working and has served as a crime deterrent since it was installed in August 2021.

We shared these statistics to let you know that you can take a proactive stance and that there are steps you can take to keep your home and family safe. One of these steps is installing a smart home security system.

The Makings of a Smart Home Security System

In much the same way that a smart home operates, a smart home security system integrates several components that work in tandem to secure your home. Innovative AV has been in the smart home industry for 35 years, providing innovative technology that offers convenience and safety. We customize every solution, ensuring it aligns with a homeowner’s needs and concerns. A few of the possible solutions include the following: 

• Video Surveillance

Video surveillance systems help deter criminals and also provide law enforcement with the possible identity of the intruder. These systems offer license plate recognition, facial recognition, and smart technology that enables them to send you a notification when something out of the ordinary occurs.

We can program digital tripwires that send an immediate text alert when someone crosses them. Many homeowners set invisible boundaries around the perimeter of their properties or in front of the garage. Others with toddlers may want a digital tripwire around their pool. 

Today’s cameras also offer 4K crystal-clear resolution, night vision, two-way intercoms, and enable you to pull up live video feed on your mobile device anytime and anywhere.

• Smart Access Control 

When integrated with smart door locks, your home can immediately lock down should an unknown person show up on your property. If you find out it’s your dog walker, you can greet them and unlock the door with one simple tap on your smartphone.

• Smart Lighting

If something out of the ordinary occurs, like a window breaking or someone attempting to enter a door, your flood lights can automatically light up the night while other lights start flashing. Your alarm lets the intruder know they've been spotted.
