If you want to protect your home, a motion-based smart system is a smart choice. New smart systems are able to use motion-based technologies such as lights and cameras to detect when someone is around your property. Here are a few ways these systems can help you secure your home.
Deter Potential Criminals With Motion-Based Lighting
Any criminal will think twice about stepping on your property when the floodlights go off. Motion-based lighting can turn on any time someone approaches your property — and it can be set on a schedule so it only does this at night.
Most thieves just want to find a property that is inconspicuous: they will not go after a well-lit property that appears to track their actions. A motion-based lighting system is more startling than having lights on all the time, in addition to being more energy-efficient.
Get Notified Automatically of Suspicious Activity
Not only can new systems detect motion but they also can alert you when they do so. You can get an alert on your phone if someone has triggered your motion-sensitive cameras, and you can view those cameras from wherever you are.
Whether you're at work, on vacation, or even in the house itself, you can always know exactly what goes on in and around your property. Your motion-detecting system can also hook up to an alarm and monitoring service.
Protect Your Home from Pests and Wild Animals
Humans are not the only ones that are scared off by motion-based lights. If you have recurring issues with bears, raccoons, or other wildlife trying to get into your trash cans, motion-based lighting can startle them away. Wild animals can become an extreme nuisance and attract other animals. Once they know that you have food around, they can be very difficult to deter.
Keep Your Home Protected During Vacations
If you are worried about leaving your home unprotected during a vacation, a motion-based system is the perfect thing for you. With advanced, motion-based cameras, you have a system where you can check on your home whenever you want.
You do not need to wait until motion sets the cameras off. You can look at the footage at any time to see what is going on. You can also review motion-detected footage later to make sure you do not have anything around that you need to report.
Reduce the Chance of Injury Around Your Home
In addition to protecting you from criminals and animals, motion-based lights can also protect you and your guests from injury. By lighting up whenever motion is detected, motion-based lights can reduce the chances of people tripping, slipping, or falling.
You can add motion-based lights around your home's walkways, to your home's stairs, or just in front and behind your home. You will never need to struggle to turn on a light again.
Trigger an Alarm If Motion Is Detected InsideFinally, traditional alarms can round out the features of your new smart security system. Motion-detecting alarms inside of your house can send an alert if anyone actually gets past your perimeter.
Motion-detecting alarms are an ideal security measure, as they will still sound even if your perimeter alarms fail. Your alarm system can either notify the police or notify you — either way, you'll be able to react swiftly to any threats.
Advanced motion-based systems can even account for normal motion inside, such as cats and dogs, while still triggering if something abnormal is detected.
