Experience Peace of Mind 24/7 with Smart Security/Surveillance

Among all the smart technologies available for your home, one of the most essential is a security/surveillance system. Today’s home security offers comprehensive protection, a significantly different technology from its predecessors. 

How do these systems work, and what do they manage? Today, they integrate with nearly every smart device, from audio and video to lighting, thermostats, smart door locks, garages, and motion sensors. You can manage them all right from your smartphone or mobile device, no matter where you are in the world. 

Here, we’ll explore the peace of mind that comes when a smart home works together to protect your home and family 24/7.

Why Early Technology Planning Creates More Successful Luxury Homes

In luxury home construction, timing is everything. The decision of when to consider home automation can make the difference between a seamlessly integrated smart home and a patchwork of technology solutions. At Sierra Integrated Systems, we've seen how incorporating technology planning during the blueprint stage leads to superior results for both the homeowner and the build team. When technology becomes part of the design conversation from day one, it transforms from an afterthought into an integral aspect of the home's functionality and aesthetic.

Why You Should Engage a Low-Voltage Contractor Early in the Design Phase

A low-voltage electrical technician plays a critical role when incorporating smart home technology. Unfortunately, integrating home automation is far too often an afterthought, resulting in costly change orders, incompatibilities, and delayed and over-budget projects. 

When low-voltage contractors are not involved in the early stages of a project, low-voltage technicians are unable to execute the project effectively, and the aesthetics, performance, and the client’s overall experience suffer. Here, we’ll explore why involving low-voltage contractors in the earliest design stages ensures a seamless outcome, maximizing functionality and design. 

Experience Immersive, All-Encompassing Music and Sound

Are you still taking your Bluetooth with you when you head to your backyard? Or maybe you're listening to the big game or your favorite music via an older one-directional under-eave speaker. For those of you who haven’t looked into outdoor audio for some time, prepare to be amazed. 

As outdoor living became a way of life and homeowners wanted the same level of entertainment to extend to their outdoor areas, some of the best audio manufacturers responded. The result? 

No more bulky equipment or one-directional sound that’s barely heard in some areas and blasts eardrums out in others. Today, you can have the same even coverage across your entire property, hearing every note through a wide dynamic range—the reproduction of sound as your favorite musicians intended. 

Let’s see how it’s done.
