The 5 Benefits & Features of a Home Surveillance System

Experience the Ultimate Peace of Mind with Smart Security

According to FBI Crime Data, over 3,000 burglaries occur across the U.S. every day. That amounts to about one burglary every 30 seconds. While these statistics are alarming, there is some good news. Alarms.org found that homes with a security system are 300% less likely to be burglarized. 

Could protecting your home and loved ones in Edinburg, TX, be as easy as installing a home surveillance system? The answer is a resounding yes.

These systems, however, do much more than deter burglars. They enable you to talk to visitors through two-way audio and receive instant notifications when someone crosses a digital tripwire or movement is detected. They offer an unprecedented peace of mind.

Let’s explore some of the benefits and features smart home surveillance brings.

Safety & Security

Few things in life measure up to walking into your home and experiencing that welcoming sense of peace and relaxation. It’s a feeling of safety and security, a space you return to recharge and share some of life’s most precious moments. 

A home surveillance system enhances these feelings thanks to these features:

• Night Vision: Did you hear a loud noise by the side gate after everyone had gone to bed? By turning to the touchscreen on the nightstand, you can pull up a live video feed and see what made the sound. Today’s security cameras offer high-resolution 4K video, providing crystal clear images day or night.
• Remote Access: Did the security camera spot someone by the garage when you were away on a business trip? You’ll receive an instant alert. Pulling up the surveillance feed on your mobile device lets you know immediately if the situation warrants a call to law enforcement. We can also program the cameras to respond with a verbal message whenever they see someone nearby.
• Facial Recognition: A security camera with facial recognition can let you know when your kids arrive home from school or if the person detected is a stranger. For instance, a camera by the front door sends a push notification saying, “Mia’s home.” And an indoor camera with two-way audio lets you greet them. 
• Motion Detection: There are several types of security cameras. Some record video footage continuously. These ensure you don't miss anything but require a robust internet connection and a wired solution. Other cameras activate with motion. 
• Smart Home Integration: By integrating your surveillance system with a smart home system, you experience the ultimate security. Lighting, door locks, alarms, audio, and video work together. When you leave home, your system arms and specific lights turn on when evening approaches. When you return, indoor cameras turn off for privacy, and should someone ring the doorbell, the video feed pops up on the TV nearest you.
