Let D-Tronics Home & Business Take Your Home’s Security Up a Notch

A window is smashed. A door is pried open. What do you do? If you don’t have an alarm system installed on your Edinburg-area property, then several things could happen, none of which are pleasant. If you do have a robust security system and response plan, then your remote monitoring team will sense the danger before it ever occurred, an alarm would sound, and law enforcement would be dispatched to your Texas home immediately.

Whether you’re at home or away on vacation, knowing your property and loved ones are protected brings peace of mind. An alarm system is much more than a siren blaring in response to a forced-open entry, though. Keep reading below to learn what other security measures should be included in modern home alarm systems.

Learn What Our Technicians Consider When Installing a Home Network

Maintaining an adequate Wi-Fi connection with lightning-fast speeds is unfortunately not as simple as plugging in a new router and connecting to a wireless network. Connecting one device may be that easy. But modern homes have upwards of 50 connected devices, from smartwatches to streaming music sources to gaming consoles.

Without adequate bandwidth or network configurations, too many competing devices can leave homeowners feeling frustrated and, quite literally, disconnected.

To ensure a speedy yet secure connection for all of the electronics across your Harlingen-area property, a whole-home Wi-Fi network installed by a networking specialist is essential. The D-Tronics Home & Business team is the expert in designing customized networking solutions for Texas homes just like yours.

Learn How to Keep Your Commercial Business Secure

The phrase “business as usual” has all but lost its meaning in the last year.

As you reflect on the best methods for maintaining profits and boosting staff morale this quarter, it’s the perfect time to address how you keep your employees and property secure.

Your Texas Backyard Doesn’t Need to Be Boring

In Texas, we’re lucky to be able to enjoy outdoor activities year-round, but summertime is the best season! We see more sunny days and few rainy ones, and there’s no chance of random snowstorms like we experienced in February.

You don’t have to leave your McAllen-area property in order to enjoy the great outdoors, though. You can take your favorite aspects of audio and video that you appreciate inside, outside! Read on below to learn three areas of your backyard that would benefit from a new or upgraded outdoor sound system.

Multi-Room Music Is at Your Fingertips with an Upgraded Speaker System

Imagine being able to listen to your favorite music, podcast, or audiobook in any room of your Texas home with a simple tap of your finger. There’s no need to fumble with plugging in your smartphone or reconnecting a cable to your record player or TV setup when you want to change audio sources. It’s nearly futuristic how incredible a multi-room speaker system can be when incorporated by a professional AV team.

Seamlessly weaving in the best audio/video solutions is our specialty. Keep scrolling below to learn two reasons why we enjoy bringing powerful whole-home speaker systems to our clients’ homes in the Rio Grande Valley.

From the Home Theater to the Kitchen and Outdoors, Too   

Bigger is better, right? Well, not always. If you’re a music enthusiast hoping to upgrade to high-end audio, you might be eager to choose the largest floor-standing speakers for powerful sound. Floor-standing models are obviously impressive—but might not be the best choice for every room.  

All to say: you’ve got options. Between smaller bookshelf speakers to tall floor models, choosing the right speakers requires balance. We use Klipsch speakers as an example for high-end audio due to the company’s robust sound quality, artfully crafted speakers, and abundant options. Read on to see which Klipsch speakers would fare best in your McAllen, TX home.  

All-in-One and Always Connected 

Home security is one of the most popular sectors of smart technology among homeowners in Mission, TX, and all over the world. Your home holds your loved ones and most prized possessions.

In this blog post, we’re putting the spotlight on one of our favorite home alarm systems companies—QOLSYS. QOLSYS, short for Quality of Life Systems, is a relatively new name in security but not one that should be underestimated. Keep reading to find out why.

We understand that our clients want the best-in-class performance, and we’re happy to announce that we now offer AudioControl!

Protect Your Security Camera System From Cyberhackers

Still, there is an additional layer of defense you will need to protect your loved ones. 

Protecting a security camera system may seem redundant, but it is vital to any security setup that you incorporate into your Texas home. D-Tronics Home & Business provides unmatched protection and optional support plans that ensure your devices are safeguarded from potential cyberhackers and data breaches.
