How to Guard your Home from your Cell phone?

Your home is your castle and naturally you want to guard it from all invaders. In today’s world of sophisticated gadgetry that is available to the burglars and thieves, you cannot lag behind in arming your home with a proper security system that is state of the art and can defend itself.

Why home security?

Your most valuable possessions are in your home. The safety of your precious family also depends on being well-guarded from any possible breach in security. A home security system can help in deterring most would-be burglars. An alarm will be triggered instantly when your security system is compromised or if any unauthorized person tries to gain access.

Burglar alarms

Your local police station will also receive an alert about a possible break-in, if you have opted for the option while installing the burglar alarm systems. This increases the chances of the perpetrators being caught red-handed by the local police. Your security service provider will also send in a team to check on your property whenever an alarm is triggered. This way, even in your absence, your home is well-guarded by your trusted security system. Usually, the response times hardly amount to a few minutes, and this rapid response increases the chances of the burglars being caught.

Your cell phone as your defense

Even when you are away from your home on a business trip or a vacation, you can monitor your home in real time by getting regular updates on your mobile phone. If you have a smart phone, you can log into your home security system and monitor the logs. You can also check on anything you want from your mobile phone or your laptop, using the internet and the GPRS. Your smart phone can be indispensible when it comes to guarding your home when on the move. You can download specific Apps from your security service provider and be wired to your home security system 24/7. Details like who used the system last, and who set the alarm code can also be recorded and viewed if and when necessary.

Saving from other accidents

With the technological advances being made in recent years, you can install sensors to detect smoke, gas leaks and water flooding. This will help to prevent expensive repairs from damage caused by disasters and accidents like fires, gas leaks and other problems. Sensors installed on windows can trigger an alarm when a burglar tries to enter your home through a shattered window, as the vibrations caused during the breaking of the window glass are picked up by the sensors and the silent alarm is triggered.

Staying secure on the move

Jacksonville burglar alarms are extremely sensitive and ensure that help arrives in mere seconds if there ever is a breach of the security system. With every gadget and device turning smart, your security camera can send live feed to your security company, and you can tap into it to view your home security in real time. With a smart phone, you can set it up to be notified at regular intervals about what is happening on the home front, so that you can relax and enjoy your vacation without having to worry about the safety of your home.
