When our partner and I first bought our house, both of us looked into a security system… I entirely wanted to have alarms on the doors, sensors on the windows and cameras around the outside, and at that time, the village wasn’t the safest, and however, when both of us got an quote on the upgrade it involved drilling holes in the walls and ceilings to run the wires! The two of us weren’t thrilled with that idea.
- The device was bulky and unsightly, and both of us knew that it wouldn’t be long before the security system became outdated.
The two of us decided against the investment and gave up on the method of a security system. It wasn’t until just recently that it occurred to me that prefer everything else, these systems had really seen some improvements. The development of wireless technology has changed everything. Modern security systems install without any damage and include all sorts of convenient features, such as automated door locks, motion-activated lights and motion activated cameras. The two of us can access all aspects of the system via apps on our smartphones from virtually anywhere. The two of us can see who is knocking on the door, unlock the door and speak to the man even if both of us are not on the premises, and plus, when there are updates available, both of us can simply download the improvements, however we’ve gradually added to the security system, including glass breakage sensors, monitoring by the security dealer, smoke detectors, carbon detectors and moisture sensors. The two of us are now considering upgrading into a full new home automation system. The two of us would prefer to bundle together the security system, our appliances, lights and sound system into a single hub.
