Tips From The Top

Our homes embody our design for living: they provide our families with the essentials, comfort, and an aesthetic unique to who we are and our values.

Securing our home is a key part of maintaining that sense of safety and protecting what – and who – we hold closest to us.

But the variety of smart home security devices flooding the market can seem overwhelming and daunting. There are indoor and outdoor security cameras, motion detectors, smart locks, video doorbells. You can get door and window sensors, door locks, garage door openers, lights, sirens, smoke and CO detectors, water sensors. One elaborate system will detect motion, evaluate the source of the motion (raccoon? intruder?), and even deploy a special drone to further research the source.

With the huge array of home security systems out there, a smart home integrator like Jackson Hole AV is a crucial partner for helping you to outline your needs. We then design, install, and maintain the security system to best fit your family and your home.

Fortunately, home security systems are adaptable to your family’s specific needs and the home itself. At Jackson Hole AV, we offer a range of security systems, like the simple, effective method of a CCTV or IP camera, or a larger security package that’s part of Savant’s entire integrated home automation platform. We work closely with clients to understand their security needs, then design and install the security system that will work best for them.

Our variety of CCTV and IP camera systems provide the level of security you want and need. (In some cases, just the presence of a camera can be enough to prevent trespassers.) After understanding your concerns, we bring our expertise to install cameras on your property that will attain the widest range of vision, record 24/7, and allow for playback from your mobile device – so you can view security footage from your smart phone anywhere in the world.

The smart security systems we install also allow you to create the rules you want within the system, so that the system responds to real life events. For instance, we can program the system to unlock doors when the smoke alarm goes off or turn lights on when motion is sensed. Garage floodlights will automatically turn on when the garage door is opened. A smart phone app allows you to make changes as needed, from wherever you are.

Our main home automation platform, Savant, offers optimal home security that is both highly-customizable and effortless to operate. With your mobile device, you can communicate with every entry point in your home, no matter where you are. Let’s say a delivery person arrives at the kitchen door while you’re out of the country; you can see and speak with the person via your device, unlock the door, allow them to deliver the package, and lock the door after they have left. At night, Savant’s night vision detects movement and enables you to view the area on your device without even getting out of bed. If tampering with a keypad is attempted, you will receive an alert and the system will launch a 135° view from the entry station camera.

As with all systems we install, we make sure the technology is integrated, protected, and works as it’s designed to work – and we are committed to maintaining and updating your system to ensure it continues to operate at its peak level.
