NATIONAL HOME SECURITY MONTH
Firstly , tradespeople should ensure that they recommend a high-quality smart home alarm , such as Yale ’ s Sync Smart Home Alarm , with an extended range to cover their home , garage and any outbuildings .
Smart alarms are a great investment for homeowners , allowing them to arm and disarm their alarm from anywhere at any time , all from the convenience of a smartphone . And with additional accessories , it ’ s possible to expand the smart system to suit the needs of the user and provide wider coverage throughout the house .
Another profitable product area to capitalise on at this time of year is outdoor security cameras . Today , there are range of high-quality , smart CCTV options available for homeowners , helping to create an effective visual deterrent against opportunists operating in the area .
Smart CCTV allows homeowners to check on their home from anywhere at any time . A security camera system , such as Yale ’ s Smart Home HD1080 CCTV , ensures the user has all the functionalities
required to monitor their property effectively , such as image masking , night vision , intelligent detection , live viewing , in-app control and smartphone notifications .
The positioning of the CCTV cameras is important to capture footage and not intrude on neighbouring homes . As a tradesperson providing advice on the positioning of the cameras or offering full installation can ensure the system is set up and working correctly .
A great first step into security cameras , Yale ’ s most recent product launch , the Floodlight Camera , is a must-have . The new release has been designed to ensure homeowners can keep eyes on their home and garden in any low-light conditions with 1080 FHD video quality and multiple lighting modes , with 2,000 lumen light output . With a 110dB siren and customisable motion detection regions to ensure every angle of your customer ’ s home and garden is covered , the Floodlight Camera is a great addition as the clocks go back .
And if you ’ re deciding to increase your smart security offering to include smart alarms and security cameras as we approach the autumn , it ’ s also important to consider the best brands to stock .
41 % of Brits would decide to purchase a security product based on if it ’ s from a trusted brand , with 40 % saying they would also opt for products that were easy to set up and install [ 1 ] . So , it ’ s worthwhile opting to stock well-known trusted brands in the security market , such as Yale , to ensure your customers are receiving tried-andtested products that will last , with easy installation .
