If you are like the vast majority of people you will find yourself away from home for long periods of time whether it be 8 - 10 hours a day for work or 1 week to 3 months for a long-awaited holiday. Either way whilst you are away from your home you want to know that your belongings are safe and sound.

An alarm system offers invaluable peace of mind when you're not home. Most alarm systems today will notify you of your alarm going on when it happens and dispatch security to your home to ensure that everything is ok. This can add peace of mind whilst on holidays overseas.
There are so many different types of alarm systems available on the market these days from wireless and app-powered to motion and heat sensored. Some alarm systems also come with some home automation capabilities to adapt to the ever-changing developments in technology. Speak to your installer about your systems automation capabilities.
Over the years security cameras have become more and more cost-effective meaning that you get more bang for your buck. There are so many different types of CCTV cameras on the market now it really only comes down to who you want to install them.
Most modern CCTV systems can be linked to an app on your smartphone to allow for live viewing, they also record footage so you can view later or show to
authorities if needed. They have night and day visibility, and a wide angle to maximise coverage of any area you want to be covered. CCTV is also good
for checking the kids are playing safely by the pool or making sure your dog hasn't escaped while you're out.
There are timers on the market that can be plugged into powerpoints and then into your appliances such as TV's or lights that you can set to allow for power during certain times. If this is done correctly then you can give the illusion that you are home as lights will turn on and off throughout the evening and the TV will turn on and off throughout the afternoon into the night. If you have a security system installed or are thinking of having one, it's worth speaking to the installer about the possibility of having this set up as part of its home automation capabilities.
