Luxury smart home with Alarm.com features

Each year, brands release more home automation systems to the consumer market that promise to streamline your lifestyle. As a result, many homeowners are overwhelmed by the subtle differences in the number of options available. Alarm.com home automation simplifies the process by centralizing all your lighting, locks, and home management into one user-friendly interface. Whether you opt for an in-wall control panel or a wireless device, Alarm.com products promise flexibility that can fit your unique needs. At ABF Security, we partner with Alarm.com to bring streamlined convenience to your home.

Unified Management

Alarm.com offers cost-effective home automation products that unify your lighting solutions, security measures, and home management under one umbrella. With an Alarm.com system, you can utilize control options unique to a type of room, like energy efficiency in the kitchen or surround sound in your home theater, even making it possible to control any part of your home. You can turn off the lights, close the blinds, and arm your security system from the comfort of your bed.

You can better understand the individual rooms of your house through a sleek data collection interface, including light scene settings or alarm status. Additionally, on-screen video integration allows you to monitor the activity on your CCTV cameras directly from your touch screen or paired app. No matter how many compatible brands you have, we can centralize them under one system.

Lighting Control

It’s easier than ever to control a lighting system. Say goodbye to wondering which switch controls the kitchen, dining, or pantry lights. Our lighting control systems can be easily operated through a smartphone, leaving you in charge of your home from the other side of your house or even the other side of the world. It’s easy to visualize your lighting control on a screen, and if you didn’t remember to turn off the kitchen lights, quickly check your phone and flip the switch. Your mobile device will even enable you to adjust the settings to alter the intensity and color of lights throughout your home.

Interactive Door Locks

Interactive door locks allow you the rare opportunity to remotely control the most basic protection against theft at your home: your locks. In the past, when leaving to go out of town, you may have made a spare key for a neighbor to watch your property. While this is risky, rest assured that it is no longer necessary. You can easily log into the Alarm.com app and unlock the door for them from the ski lift in Colorado or beneath the Eiffel Tower.

Energy Management

We can create a smart home environment that makes your thermostat work smarter and not harder. For example, imagine leaving for vacation and realizing you forgot to turn your thermostats back to save energy while you are gone. Now imagine how simple it would be to use your smartphone to turn your thermostat down from 3 states away. We can even pair your thermostat to adjust its temperature depending on when you arm or disarm your security system.

Security & Monitoring

Security has transformed from a detection system to a complete lifestyle system, integrating with everything in your home. A home security system lets you see who is in and around your property, even when you are not there. If any emergency occurs, the Alarm.com app will notify you and contact first responders immediately.

ABF Security has a monitoring center in St. Louis, with multiple employees available 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. Our emergency response team members are all ESA certified, and our monitoring center has earned the Five Diamond Award, the highest honor from the Central Station Alarm Association.

Surveillance

CCTV systems are usually the first way people take their home security into their own hands. Surveillance camera systems allow you to monitor and record activity on your property 24 hours a day and seven days a week from your phone or tablet. The technology behind these systems has improved by leaps and bounds over the past few years, and more varieties mean that you can choose a perfect arrangement for your needs.

Water & Temperature Alarms

One of the most important aspects of a security system is the ability to protect property, but that’s not just limited to cameras and door/window sensors. Broken pipes are more common in our area because of extremely cold or hot temperatures, so use your alarm system to detect water leaks in your home. Alarm.com has launched a water management solution called Water Dragon. The Water Dragon is a single compact water leak detector that uses ultrasonic technology to detect and alert homeowners about water issues before they become critical.

Temperature sensors are environmental alarms that detect high or low temperatures inside your house. Chances are that your thermostat doesn’t live in the room you spend most of your time in. Place temperature sensors in every room to create a room-based thermostat schedule.

At ABF Security, our primary focus is to save you time, energy, and money. With a home automation system controlled by a single app, you invest in your home and combine functionality with elegance. Contact us today to bring the power of Alarm.com to your home!
