Smart gadgets that will make your home safer

If you want to make your home safer, I am sure you considered adding some smart tech: to make it more difficult to access for intruders, to have an eye on your loved ones, or simply enjoy more peace of mind. The amount of available tech can be daunting. Luckily, making your home smart and safe is easier than ever before with a variety of gadgets available on the market. Here are some of the best gadgets to make your home smart and safer:

Don’t let intruders in with a smart lock

Smart locks allow you to lock and unlock your doors remotely, set up temporary access codes for guests, and receive notifications when someone enters or leaves your home. They also often come with features such as auto-lock and tamper alarms. Some of them can also allow your guest to have temporary access via the app.

Keep an eye on your home with smart cameras

Smart security cameras allow you to monitor your home from anywhere, with features such as night vision, two-way audio, and motion detection. Some cameras also come with facial recognition technology, which can be used to identify and alert you to potential intruders. Many modern doorbells, like Ring, come with the cameras built-in.

Keep safe with CO and smoke detectors

Smart smoke detectors go beyond traditional smoke detectors by sending alerts to your phone in the event of a fire, allowing you to take action even when you’re away from home. They also often come with features such as carbon monoxide detection and interconnectivity with other smart home devices.

Smart lights, even when you’re away

Smart lights let you control the lighting in your home remotely, set schedules, and even change the colour and brightness of the lights. They also often come with features such as voice control and integration with other smart home devices. It is handy when you go on holiday: with app control, you can “pretend” you’re at home by switching the light on at some evenings.

Home hubs

Smart home hubs serve as the central control point for your smart home devices, allowing you to control and monitor all your devices from one app. They also often come with features such as voice control and integration with other smart home devices.

By incorporating these smart gadgets into your home, you can improve your home’s security and make it more energy efficient and convenient. Just be sure to research and choose the devices that best meet your needs and budget.
