Yale SmartHome Alarm
This package has all-in-one motion sensors and a smoke alarm. The windows and doors can detect unwanted entry and, if a movement is detected when you’re not home, you can switch on a light via your smartphone to give the illusion that someone is in.
August Smart Lock
Smart Locks can be a great way to give friends, family or even a cleaner access to the house without getting a key cut. This smartphone app replaces the need for keys and codes – no more frantic daily searches for your door keys.
iSmart Alarm
Another all-in-one gadget, Apple’s latest evolution offers security cameras, contact and motion sensors, switch facilities and more. This piece of technology even tracks which members of the family are at home.
Nest Cam
This nifty little camera is ideal to unobtrusively stand on a desk or mount discreetly on a wall. Newly unveiled by Google, this webcam lookalike has the ability to send alerts to your phone if any suspicious activity takes place. You can tune into a live feed at any point from anywhere in the world.
With its smart intelligence, it can easily tell the difference between a burglar and a stray animal.
Piper
The Piper is another type of camera that sits on your mantelpiece. With its 180 degree view and motion-sensing capabilities, the camera sends a notification straight to your phone if it suspects anything suspicious. Night mode and panning accessibility from your smartphone make this gadget a must have.
