Answer the Door Remotely with a Smart Doorbell Camera
A smart doorbell camera powered by Alarm.com enables a safe, smart way for you to see who is at your door, no matter where you are.
When a visitor rings the doorbell, you’ll receive an alert on your smartphone. Open your Alarm.com app to see a video feed of who is there, and choose to start a voice conversation with them through the doorbell with just a simple tap in your app.
The smart doorbell by Alarm.com also works as a security camera, ready to capture and send you footage of any suspicious activity on your porch or in your front yard. Movement will trigger a motion-activated video recording, which can be sent to your phone right away or downloaded so you can forward it to family or local authorities.
Eliminate the Need for Keys with Smart Locks
With an Alarm.com smart lock, you can now enjoy keyless convenience with better awareness and control of who enters your home. Give family members and friends their own access codes, remotely lock and unlock the door through your Alarm.com app, and receive alerts whenever a user unlocks your door.
Have temporary visitors coming and going? Set time windows for when their access codes will work or disable, and even give your access codes expiration dates. Customization is endless when you harness the power of complete smart lock control with your Alarm.com app.
With an integrated home security solution from Alarm.com, your smart locks also can integrate with your doorbell camera. When someone rings the doorbell, from the same app that you answer their call, you also can let them into your house.
Always Know What’s Happening with Real-Time Push Alerts
Never be out of the loop when it comes to the safety of your home. With Alarm.com push notifications, you’ll receive updates on anything happening in and around your home as you desire, from unlocked doors and windows to water leaks, motion detection, and more.
For example, maybe you forgot to close your garage when you left for work. Alarm.com’s Geo-Services technology will detect when you’re away from home and send an alert to your phone to ask you if you’d like to close your garage door with just a tap.
Set home security notifications for what matters most to you, and Alarm.com will always let you know what’s happening.
Trigger Automatic Safety Measures with Smart Sensors
In an emergency, Alarm.com can automatically respond to keep you safe. With advanced sensors for water leaks, smoke, and carbon monoxide, Alarm.com can instantly send alerts to appropriate emergency officials and even shut down your smart home’s HVAC system to stop circulation of dangerous fumes.
You can also set up sensors for other events, like motion detection and broken entrances, and receive real-time alerts for such activity. The more sensors sending data to Alarm.com’s platform, the smarter your home security system becomes as it continues to better understand how to act in the event of an emergency.
Gain 24/7 Peace of Mind with Remote Monitoring Services
Automating your Alarm.com security system and receiving around-the-clock alerts are great ways to ensure your property stays safe. But sometimes alerts can be missed, and that’s where professional remote monitoring can help.
When you invest in a remote monitoring service for your Alarm.com system, a trusted, certified professional will help keep an eye on your property during all hours of the day and night. When an alarm goes off or a sensor detects a dangerous event, a security professional will receive an alert, review surveillance footage, and notify the authorities. They can also remotely update and maintain your system, so potential issues are fixed before you even know about them.
