SMART SECURITY
From wireless DIY solutions to cabled setups that integrate with the rest of your smart home system, we investigate the options for protecting your home from unwanted visitors
The rapid advancement of smart technology and internet-enabled products over the last decade has revolutionised the home security sector. An abundance of wireless DIY solutions is now available to suit all budgets, from smart doorbells that take video footage of everyone that knocks on your door, to keyless lock systems that allow you to remotely control entry to and from your house.
