Gone are the days of relying on the simplistic alarm systems with basic security functions and ignored sirens.

Sophistication and Smart Technology takes the place of a standard security system and turns basic into an extraordinary, easy to use, life enhancing and even an environmentally friendly approach to safe and easy living.

Smart Systems provide the ultimate in safety for your family with features not found in a standard security system such as inside and outside lights turning on in the event of a security breach, or the air conditioner/ furnace fan automatically turning off in the event of a fire to prevent the spreading of smoke throughout the home.

These systems can be personalized to notify you by e-mail, internet surveillance or by central monitoring of an alarm event. With a couple clicks of a mouse you can log in to your home system and check or change the security, temperature, or light settings, and view any camera’s you have in your home.

An example of these alerts is having your system email you when your children have arrived home from school or if the alarm has gone off.

So in these busy and often hectic times, it is very normal for us to turn to technology to ease some of the demands and why not?

The security of my home is one less thing I worry about, I love my occupancy lighting – I never come home to a dark house (and I am not wasting electricity leaving the lights on), I never think about the temperature in my house (and I know that I am saving money on my heating/cooling bills) and my house will email me if the children have not arrived home by our set time. (NEXGEN Controls inc. installed my system)

Aren’t you and your family worth more than the basic alarm system?

Be safe,
